In their Engineering Criteria 2000, ABET states that each accreditedengineering “program must have an assessment program with documented results. The assessmentprocess must demonstrate that outcomes important to the mission of the institution and theobjectives of the program are being measured.”In general, assessment begins when a program faculty establishes intended program outcomes andthen identifies the outcome indicators that will be used to measure these outcomes. Outcomeindicators can be broadly classified as qualitative and quantitative; examples include
