Major Design Experience• A culminating experience, based on knowledge and
skills acquired in earlier coursework
• Must incorporate engineering standards and realistic constraints, including most of the following considerations:
– Economic
– Environmental
– Sustainability
– Manufacturability
– Ethical
– Health and Safety
– Social
– Political

Professional ComponentProfessional ComponentSubject Areas
One year of a combination of college-level mathematics and basic sciences (some with experimental experience) appropriate to the discipline
One and one-half years of engineering topics, consisting of engineering sciences and engineering design appropriate to the student’s field of study
A general education component that complements the technical content of the curriculum and is consistent with the program and institution objectives

Criterion 4 - IssuesCriterion 4 - Issues
Quality of the major design experience No culminating experience - analysis or
research instead of design; several courses with elements of design
Multiple capstone courses with widely varying quality
Design experience does not address many of the constraints
Engineering topics satisfied by electives, but advising doesn’t assure adequate coverage

Program Criteria – Criterion 8Program Criteria – Criterion 8
The ABET Criteria requires that each program must satisfy applicable Program Criteria.
The ABET Program Criteria provide the specificity needed for interpretation of the basic level criteria as applicable to a given discipline.
This is where we differentiate between Bio/Biomedical engineering and other engineering.

Requirements stipulated in the Program Criteria are limited to: the areas of curricular topics faculty qualifications.
If a program, by virtue of its title, becomes subject to two or more sets of Program Criteria, program must satisfy each set of Program Criteria; overlapping requirements need to be satisfied only once.
E.g., biomedical and computer engineering

The program must demonstrate that graduates have: an understanding of biology and physiology, the capability to apply advanced mathematics (including
differential equations and statistics), science, and engineering to solve the problems at the interface of engineering and biology;
the ability to make measurements on and interpret data from living systems, addressing the problems associated with the interaction between living and non-living materials and systems.
