BackTexas A&M University at Qatar received notification that the Engineering Accreditation Commission of ABET has conferred accreditation on all four of the university’s engineering programmes in Qatar.
ABET is the premier accreditation authority for institutions offering degree programmes in applied science, computing, engineering and technology.
Mark H Weichold, Dean and CEO of Texas A&M at Qatar, said the accreditation was a welcome endorsement of the university’s first-rate engineering programmes in Education City.
“Academic excellence is our business,” Weichold said, “ABET accreditation is a key marker of the quality to which we aspire.” The university’s bachelor of science programmes in chemical engineering, electrical engineering, mechanical engineering and petroleum engineering all received accreditation.
Dr R Bowen Loftin, Interim President of Texas A&M University, lauded the news. “We are pleased that Texas A&M’s Qatar campus has been accredited by ABET, which validates something that we have known for a long time — our Qatar engineering graduates are of the highest calibre” Loftin said. “We appreciate the long-standing partnership Texas A&M has had with the Qatar Foundation as we work together in developing a world-class, comprehensive engineering programme in Qatar.”
