CSE ACCREDITATIONREVIEW BY CAC & EAC
UC IrvineOctober 2, 2013
Accreditation Goal
Improve educational quality of the program
Program Education Objectives (PEO)broad statements about career and
professional accomplishments that are to be achieved within a few years of graduation
(these are defined by the CSE program)
Student Outcomes (SO)expectations of knowledge and ability that
are to be achieved before graduation(these are defined by CAC & EAC of ABET, with allowances for
local variation)
2
CSE PEOs
Graduates of the program will establish a productive Computer Science and
Engineering career in industry, government, or academia
engage in professional practice of computer systems engineering and software systems engineering
promote the development of innovative systems and solutions using hardware and software integration
promote design, research and implementation of products and services in the field of Computer Science and Engineering through strong communication, leadership and entrepreneurial skills
3
Student Outcomes
EAC defines 11 SOs, labeled a-k
CAC defines 11 SOs, labeled a-k
much overlap between EAC & CAC SOs
we define 23 aspects (Indicators) of the 22 SOs7 appear in both EAC and CAC SOs16 appear in only one of EAC or CAC
CSE defines 13 SOs, labeled a-m contain all 23 Indicators
4
Student Outcome Example
EACa. An ability to apply knowledge of (a1)
mathematics, (a2) science, and engineering.
CACa. An ability to apply knowledge of (a3) computing
and (a1) mathematics appropriate to the discipline.
CSEa. An ability to apply knowledge of (a3)
computing, (a1) mathematics, (a2) science, and engineering appropriate to Computer Science and Engineering.

Curriculum Review Process
Guide program development based on desired outcomes
Assessment: collect data on SO achievementDirect: Faculty Course Assessment Report
(FCAR)Indirect: survey graduating students
Evaluation: interpret data to measure progress of attaining goals
Recommendations to CSE Steering Committee
Make changes to courses, goals, and process Re-assess for continuous improvement
6
Curriculum (Steering) Committee
Continuously improve the programhttp://casa.eng.uci.edu/accreditation/program_improvements
Define PEOs and SO IndicatorsReview assessments and proposals for changeInitiate action for improvement via changes:
• program requirements (which courses are needed)
• course requirements (prerequisites)• course content• assessment process
7
Course Coordinator Responsibilities
Review Course Outline
• Catalog Data (course number, title, units, description, prerequisite courses)
• Required Textbook
• CLO (Course Learning Outcomes) = defined by coordinator• List of associated SO’s (EAC and CAC) for each CLO
• Prerequisites by topic – consistent with course prerequisites
• Lecture Topics
• Hours per week for Lecture/Discussion/Lab
• Grading Criteria (% allocated to project, hw, quiz, midterm, final)
Review Outcome Assessments• Suggest changes for prerequisites, topic coverage, CLOs, SO associations
8
Instructor Responsibilities
Assemble “packet” of all assignments
For assessed courses:• Provide 3 samples (good, avg, poor) of graded
assignments• Fill out FCAR
