| Accrediting Bodies |
|
Accreditation of programs in engineering, engineering technology and computing is provided by many organizations, ranging from governmental or quasi governmental bodies to private and volunteer associations. In some regions, accreditation is regulated by laws, while in others it is a voluntary process with little official recognition. Recognition of accrediting bodies is similarly made in some places by local or national governmental agencies, and in others, by voluntary associations of existing accrediting bodies. Many accrediting bodies are limited to institutions in a single country, while others engage in accreditation outside the country where they have been established or incorporated.
The following is a list and links to many of the groups responsible for engineering education accreditation worldwide:
