ABET is the abbreviation for Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology. ABET consists of members from various engineering professions, both academicians and engineers. The board develops and adopts accreditation standards for the various engineering and technology programs according to the needs of the professions. The accreditation visits by ABET occurs every three or six years.

A fully accredited program meets a set of basic criteria established by ABET. Even though accreditation of a program implies quality, it does not guarantee job or graduate school opportunities. Conversely, an unaccredited program may be of excellent quality and students graduating under such a program will find job and graduate school opportunities as well as those graduating from an accredited program
