Abstract :
Even though ABET Criteria 2000 has not received widespread support among educators yet, the criteria fosters considerable flexibility, creativity and innovation in the design of curricula. We present here a computer engineering curriculum that not only satisfies ABET criteria in all respects, but also provides an excellent preparation for students to enter careers in the computer field as entry-level engineers and/or to pursue graduate study.
