ABET Accreditation

  • ABET EAC International Accreditation

    In 2024, the Industrial Engineering program received international accreditation from the Engineering Accreditation Commission (EAC) of the ABET agency, the most prestigious in the world and which accredits engineering programs from the best universities in the world such as Harvard, Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), Duke, Yale, Stanford, Columbia, Cornell, Dartmouth, Pontificia Universidad Javeriana, Universidad de Los Andes (Colombia), among others.

    INTEC is the first and only Dominican university to obtain an accreditation from ABET's EAC. Of the thousands of universities that teach engineering courses in Latin America and the Caribbean, only 47 have received international accreditation from this prestigious agency.

  • Why is accreditation important?

    The accreditation from the Engineering Accreditation Commission (EAC) of the ABET agency represents an external and independent validation of the quality of INTEC's Industrial Engineering program and ensures that it meets rigorous international standards.

    ABET accreditation, a six-year process, examines program curricula, faculty, facilities, institutional support, and institutional capabilities to continually improve programs.

  • How does it benefit students and graduates?

    Graduates of ABET-accredited courses study under the quality standards of the best universities around the world and, because they are internationally recognized, they have greater opportunities to compete in the global job market and continue their education at prestigious international universities.

    Additionally, accreditation brings multiple advantages:

    • Ensures continuous improvement processes at the university.
    • It contributes to maintaining the quality of student education.
    • Promotes standardization processes in training.
    • It is an international requirement for a large number of countries.
    • It offers employers the security of hiring highly qualified professionals.
    • Provides the university with a structured mechanism to evaluate and improve the quality of its programs.
