Four Florida Poly bachelor’s degrees have been accredited by ABET, the global accreditor of college and university programs in applied and natural science, computing, engineering, and engineering technology officially on August 28, 2019. The degree programs are Computer Engineering, Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, and Mechanical Engineering.
ABET accreditation assures that programs meet standards to produce graduates ready to enter critical technical fields that are leading the way in innovation and emerging technologies and anticipating the welfare and safety needs of the public. The accreditation of all four degrees is retroactive to Oct 1, 2017, which means graduates from those programs now have ABET-accredited degrees.
The Computer Science (BS) program is accredited by the Computing Accreditation Commission of ABET, under the General Criteria and Program Criteria for Computer Science and Similarly Names Computing Programs
Graduates are expected to be known for their accomplishments within a few years of graduation and they should:
Upon completion of the program, students are expected to demonstrate the following outcomes:
Analyze a complex computing problem and to apply principles of computing and other relevant disciplines to identify solutions.
Design, implement, and evaluate a computing-based solution to meet a given set of computing requirements in the context of the program’s discipline.
Communicate effectively in a variety of professional contexts.
Recognize professional responsibilities and make informed judgments in computing practice based on legal and ethical principles.
Function effectively as a member or leader of a team engaged in activities appropriate to the program’s discipline.
Apply computer science theory and software development fundamentals to produce computing-based solutions.
