What is ABET ?

Is it that important?
The accreditation review process ensures educational quality by determining if criteria and guidelines are being met. Being ABET accredited means Oklahoma Christian Engineering meets or exceeds the ABET criteria and tells employers that our graduates are well-prepared for industry.
