Central College’s engineering program has received accreditation by the Engineering Accreditation Commission of ABET.

“Achieving ABET accreditation of our engineering program is a historic milestone for Central,” says Mary E.M. Strey, vice president for academic affairs and dean of the faculty.

“Our talented faculty have worked diligently to develop and launch the engineering program,” Strey says. “We are proud to be identified as a liberal arts college that holds the gold standard imprint of ABET.”

Central launched its Bachelor of Science in engineering program in 2015. Earning accreditation from ABET ensures that Central’s engineering program will evolve with the current and future needs of the engineering industry.
