This paper provides an overview of how best the quality principles, quality tools, and ISO-9000 standards could effectively be used in improving the quality of engineering education. The use of quality tools in engineering education as well as a comparison of EC-2000 with ISO-9000 standards are presented and discussed for achieving continuous improvement in the quality of engineering education. The “outcomes assessment” model concepts of EC-2000 were applied in two manufacturing courses at the Mercer University School of Engineering (MUSE) for continuous improvement in students’ learning. The documented information over a period of seven years, the results obtained through statistical analysis, and a comparison on outcomes in students’ learning between these two courses are presented and discussed.
