Accreditation

The school’s Bachelor of Engineering programmes are accredited by the Institution of Engineers Singapore (IES) through its Engineering Accreditation Board (EAB). IES is the Singapore signatory of the Washington Accord - an international agreement that evaluates the degree to which engineering academic programmes equip their graduates with the skills required for practising engineering at the professional level. Our curricula provide an excellent foundation for both graduate study and employment. Education and research activities are strongly aligned with our mission and Programme Educational Objectives (PEOs). PEOs are broad statements that describe the career and professional accomplishments that the programme is preparing graduates to achieve.

Our PEOs are aligned closely with EAB’s Student Learning Outcomes (SLOs). These are narrower statements that describe what students are expected to know and be able to do when they graduate. 

Each programme also must satisfy a set of criteria specific to it, known as Specific Programme Criteria (SPC). The stipulations in the SPC chiefly concern curricular issues and qualifications of faculty.
