Outcome Based AccreditationOutcome Based Accreditation
• Program outcomes: Statements defining the knowledge, skills, and attitudes that students must have acquired by the time they graduate.
• Outcome based accreditation requires the programs to show evidence that their graduates have acquired the minimum program outcomes specified by the accreditation agency.
MÜDEK criteria for program outcomes meet the requirements of the following standards:
– National Qualifications Framework for Higher Education in Turkey (NQF-HETR): Bachelor’s Engineering Programs.
– EUR-ACE First Cycle Program Outcomes

COMPLEX ENGINEERING PROBLEMSCOMPLEX ENGINEERING PROBLEMS
Formulation and solution of complex engineering problems is essential for an innovative engineer trying to
find solutions to global challenges. This will require a strong background on engineering fundamentals,
as well as initiation and innovation.
Teaching strategies in most engineering courses should be designed to achieve this outcome.
3.2 MÜDEK Criterion
“Ability to identify, formulate and solve complex engineering problems; ability to select and apply proper analysis and modeling methods for this purpose.”
WEEF 2012 – GEDC Global Engineering Deans CouncilOctober 16, 2012, Buenos Aires, Argentina

PROJECT MANAGEMENT-INNOVATION-PROJECT MANAGEMENT-INNOVATION-SUSTAINABILITYSUSTAINABILITY
Project management, risk management are important business practices. Awareness of sustainable
development should be emphasized. Curriculum and teaching strategies should be designed to highlight
innovation.
3.10 MÜDEK Criterion
“Information about business life practices such as project management, risk management, and change management; awareness of innovation, and sustainable development.”

May 2002: Engineering Deans Council in Turkey established an independent, non-governmental platform with the name Engineering Evaluation Board (MÜDEK) for evaluation of engineering degree programmes in Turkey.
Jan 2003:MÜDEK held its first workshop for program evaluator training.
Aug 2003: MÜDEK started its first program evaluation activities.
Jan 2007:MÜDEK became a legal entity in the form of an association: Changed its name to Association for Evaluation and Accreditation of Engineering Programs (Mühendislik Egitim Programlari Degerlendirme ve Akreditasyon Dernegi) while retaining the original acronym “MÜDEK” as its short name.

• Accreditation process, criteria and procedures are pre-defined and publicly available from http://www.mudek.org.tr/
• Starts with a self-assessment report from the HEI for each program to be accredited
• External assessment by ad-hoc evaluation teams
• Includes 3 day visit to the HEI
• MÜDEK takes accreditation action; sends the decision results and the evaluation report to the HEI
• Requires periodic re-evaluation (maximum 5 years)
• Shorter (2 year) interim evaluations as required
• HEI’s can appeal to MÜDEK and request re-evaluations and re-visits
