This section provides information about the different
fields of engineering, including links to other sites where
you can learn more about specific disciplines.
There are a variety of
different engineering disciplines, and
professional
engineering associations
that serve engineers. Depending upon the
needs you have identified,
one or more types of engineers might be
appropriate for you to team
with. While most engineering disciplines
have their own associations,
there are several websites that offer
good overviews of each
discipline. For example:
Accreditation Board for
Engineering and
Technology (ABET) With input from
31 professional engineering and
technical societies
representing millions of engineers,
computer scientists,
technologists, and technicians, ABET
develops the criteria
used to evaluate educational
programs. ABET accredits
over 2500 engineering, computing,
engineering technology and
engineering-related programs at some
500 colleges and
universities in the United States.
