The ABET EC 2000 criteria allow programs to develop flexible approaches to undergraduate education. Such approaches must reflect program objectives and meet all ABET criteria, but content and quantity of the various curricular components (Math and Science, Humanities and Social Science, Engineering Science, and Engineering Design) are defined much less rigidly than previously. Taking advantage of this opportunity, the faculty of the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering at the University of Iowa has developed a new undergraduate curriculum that permits students exceptional flexibility, consistent with their career goals as well as their possible additional aspirations for learning while at university.
