Abstract :
As a constituent member organization of the Engineers\´ Council for Professional Development, the IEEE provides one or more members to ECPD accreditation teams sent to evaluate engineering programs at institutions throughout the US. The policies, method of evaluation, and general criteria for accreditation are described in "Objectives and Procedures for Accrediting Programs in Engineering in the United States," published in the latest Annual Report of ECPD.* The guidelines set forth below, compiled by a subcommittee of the IEEE Educational Activities Board, are intended to supplement the ECPD publication in order to assist the IEEE visitor in evaluation of computer science and engineering programs.**
