that is a pretty hardcore program (i also graduated as an "engineer" from cal).

Are you still at berkeley or did you already graduate?

How many of us have acredited engineering degrees? If so, name the degree and school.

Computer Engineering
University of Victoria

Out of curiosity, how is Victoria accredited? I don't see any engineering program of theirs accredited on abet.org (http://www.abet.org/accredited_programs/engineering/schoolall.asp) All the others listed here are, however.

Is ABET only for US schools?
ABET isn't only for U.S. schools, although it seems that mainly American schools apply for it. So I'm guessing ABET isn't the norm for other International universities.

In Canada, we are acredited through APEG organizations, which is the norm around the world (except of course the US). The problem the with APEG organizations is that they're all different, even between provinces. It still takes us another 4 years of experience, and some more testing to receive a PEng, at which point we can finally legally call ourselves an engineer.

i believe it is the same in the US.
 
Another way to ask this poll is, who went through college as a virgin 😉

(probably not the best joke to make here, since most people who read this thread are engineers)
 
Accredited? I'm not sure what that means... I think I went to some decent schools and they're on that list. No one has ever asked if my degrees are accredited.

BSEE - UIUC
MSEE - UIUC
PhDEE - UCSB
