Abstract
ABET EC 2000 has changed the way that engineering programs are evaluated for accreditation. As a result, each program must develop objectives and outcomes that are consistent with the university mission. At Baylor University, teaching with a Christian worldview is an important part of the university mission. As such, each department and program within the department must show support. This paper outlines the recent process used to develop Program Educational Objectives and Expected Graduate Outcomes at Baylor University. Comparisons will be made between Baylor University and other religiously affiliated universities. Some comment on what is currently done by the authors to teach with a Christian worldview in classes at Baylor University is included. Assessment of incorporating a Christian worldview and teaching in a Christian environment is also presented.
