have taken ownership and moved past that support, others have remained dependent, which reduces the number of new faculty with whom the team can work and raises the question about what will happen when the project wraps up. 4. The faculty member will share what they are doing with others and conduct informal public outreach as they share what they have learned.As noted above, a supportive department culture might be a key motivator for engineering orcomputer science faculty to adopt diversity and inclusion related changes in their course(s).Cultural change is a long-term process and may run on a timeline that is not compatible with afixed length grant-funded project.

will eventually lead to their likely adoption. Because of the success ABET has experiencedwith its outcomes-based assessment process, the future focus for ABET evaluators will continueto be on attainment of the Student Outcomes (SO’s) enumerated in the new proposed criterion 3.The paper suggests ways to measure and evaluate attainment of SO’s using both direct andindirect measures. The final part of the paper will focus on the Program Educational Objectives(PEO’s) of criterion 2, and their relationship to both the SO’s and the institutional goals.KeywordsAccreditation, ABET Criteria.IntroductionIn the mid-1990’s, ABET developed a new set of criteria (called EC2000) for accreditingengineering degree programs.

Similar to the concept oforgan donation- every person would have the right to decide if their records are kept privatebetween themselves and their doctor(s) or if they can be used as part of a database to benefitfuture patients. With 95% of American adults supporting organ donation, there would mostlikely be a high percentage of people willing to participate in the use of medical databases [15].In order for these databases to be most efficient and beneficial it is important to be as userfriendly as possible. With millions of patient’s data compiled into a single database it will bedifficult to sift through all of it.
