Abstract

The panelists discuss the proposed ABET Computing Accreditation Commission (CAC) general criteria and the program specific criteria for computer science, information systems and information technology. The general criteria for accreditation of computing programs is currently on the ABET Website and comments are being solicited. When this general criteria is approved it applies to all programs accredited by the CAC. Programs in computer science, information systems and information technology also have to meet the program specific criteria for their own area. The criteria for these programs have been developed and are currently in the approval process. The program specific criteria will, if approved by the ABET Board in November, also be available for public comment.
