. Development and implementation factorswill also be discussed. The authors are both from an established ABET department but are in theprocess of incorporating newer methods for their accreditation process. Both experienced andnew personnel working with ABET programs will hopefully learn more about utilizingassessment methods effectively in their individual program. BackgroundFounded in 1932 under the name Engineers' Council for Professional Development, ABET(formerly Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology) accredits post-secondarydegree-granting programs. Many people interpret this to mean that ABET accredits departments,colleges, or even courses. In reality, ABET accredits programs, and your

constant acceleration equations for solving kinematics problems. While studentsmay learn to solve problems more quickly through the application of constant accelerationequations, we feel that their understanding of motion—particularly the general case in whichacceleration may vary with time—does not match the richer learning experience offered bygraphical analysis. A graphical analysis approach allows students to visualize motion whileworking more directly with fundamental principles. Graphical analysis also takes greateradvantage of advances in laboratory technology, including real-time data collection using motiondetectors (an ideal tool for measuring, viewing and manipulating motion graphs for motion withconstant or time-varying acceleration

This newparadigm shift in the engineering field demands that undergraduate students should be exposedto biological engineering at an early stage of their career via research and discovery experiences.This will provide them with a better understanding about the importance of interdisciplinaryresearch and science innovation.There is a need for an increase in the representation of individuals in the areas of chemical andbiological engineering.
