Pre-University Education Activities
![Page 9: Overview of IEEE Educational Activities](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022081505/5681678b550346895ddca983/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Pre-university Activities
Objective: Increase the propensity of young people to select engineering as a career path
Sample activities:– The on-line portal www.TryEngineering.org– Teacher in-service program
![Page 10: Overview of IEEE Educational Activities](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022081505/5681678b550346895ddca983/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
What is the Challenge?
Flat or declining engineering enrollments in most developed nations
Insufficient number of engineers and engineering educational programs in most developing countries– Asia is far behind Europe and the US in number
of engineers per capita
![Page 11: Overview of IEEE Educational Activities](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022081505/5681678b550346895ddca983/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)

What is the Challenge?
Women and minority students conspicuously under-represented
Public perception of engineers/ engineering/ technology is often misinformed– Resulting in early decisions that block the
path of children to Engineering
![Page 15: Overview of IEEE Educational Activities](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022081505/5681678b550346895ddca983/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
IEEE Board of Directors: 2005 decisions
Approved a new initiative in 2005– Launching Our Children’s Path to Engineering
Requested review all IEEE activities in the area of pre-university education in Engineering, Technology, and Computing
Requested development of programs for wide outreach – in cooperation with other Engineering Associations and
Industry
“Launch, test and institutionalize”

Accreditation
![Page 29: Overview of IEEE Educational Activities](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022081505/5681678b550346895ddca983/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
IEEE’s Role in Accreditation (1)
IEEE considers accreditation a key vehicle to ensure active involvement of the Institute in maintaining the quality and relevance of engineering education
IEEE seeks a leadership role in accreditation within all the areas of its technical activities
![Page 30: Overview of IEEE Educational Activities](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022081505/5681678b550346895ddca983/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
IEEE’s Role in Accreditation (2)
IEEE seeks leadership in accreditation worldwide– Including participation in development and
administration of accrediting bodies
IEEE seeks to develop and support local accrediting bodies where such bodies do not exist at the present time
![Page 31: Overview of IEEE Educational Activities](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022081505/5681678b550346895ddca983/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
EAB’s Recent Accreditation Projects

Development of a comprehensive on-line resource on accrediting bodies and mutual recognition agreements
Assistance to emerging accrediting bodies and accreditation projects worldwide:– China, the Caribbean, South America: Peru, [El
Salvador, Ecuador]
![Page 32: Overview of IEEE Educational Activities](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022081505/5681678b550346895ddca983/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Accreditation in the United States
![Page 33: Overview of IEEE Educational Activities](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022081505/5681678b550346895ddca983/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
ScopeIEEE is a founding society of ABET– Through AIEE
IEEE is responsible for the peer review evaluation of 750+ engineering and engineering technology programsIEEE participates in ABET activities as “IEEE” and through CSAB– The CS is 40% of CSAB– Very close cooperation between the two groups– CSAB is responsible for more than 300 programs
Both IEEE and CSAB have 3 ABET Board members Approximately 350 IEEE volunteers are involved each year
![Page 34: Overview of IEEE Educational Activities](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022081505/5681678b550346895ddca983/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Fees and payers
EAB administers a holding account for ABET fees– $3 assessment collected from members in the United
States
The Computer Society pays CSAB expenditures– Using funds collected by all Society members
![Page 35: Overview of IEEE Educational Activities](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022081505/5681678b550346895ddca983/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
