ABET 2000 challenges the traditional engineering curriculum by putting forward innovative general criteria to which any engineering program must respond. Engineering programs answer the challenge by developing objectives and measurable outcomes that represent locally generated instantiations of these criteria. Rather than elicit self-evaluations that merely tabulate activities designed to respond to surface criteria (bean-counting efforts), ABET obliges engineering schools to develop procedures to assess success in meeting these locally generated objectives and requires that they show that they have implemented a continuous process of self-improvement.
