Accreditation and Learning Outcomes in Engineering Technology: Student-Centered Assessment Virginia R. Charter, PE Oklahoma State UniversityAbstract Engineering Technology programs are accredited through ABET. This accreditationincludes eleven general criteria for student learning outcomes. The criteria’s main purpose is toensure students are learning more than the technical skills typically taught in engineeringtechnology. Many of these learning outcomes required are then applied in a culminatingexperience, or capstone course, during a student’s final semester(s) in a bachelor’s degreeprogram. This study aims to understand the student’s
Architecture, Architectural Engineering and Engineering Technology Student Learning Styles as Compared to Engineering Science GradesAbstract:Architecture, Architectural Engineering and Engineering Technology students in the samecollege with engineering students may be asked to meet the same level of rigor as the rest of thecollege. Architecture, Architectural Engineering and Engineering Technology students may behoused in separate colleges from Engineering and have different accreditations and licensureprocesses than engineering.
