DEAN’S OVERVIEW
Summer School The Faculty of Engineering offered and delivered its second Summer School pro- gramme from May 29, 2023 to July 7, 2023. The courses available to the students were ENGR0120 Preliminary Engineering Mathematics I, ENGR0220 Preliminary Engineering Mathematics II, ENGR1180 Engineering Mathematics I, ENGM1180 Mathematics for Engineers I, ENGM1280 Mathematics for Engineers II, MATH2230 Engineering Mathematics II and ENGM2280 Engineering Statistics. International Accreditation The Faculty of Engineering, Mona, submitted the Self-Study document for the Electronics Engineering Program on July 2, 2023, for the ABET reaccreditation. The self-study document contains detailed information on how the Electronics Engineering Program satisfies the eight ABET accreditation criteria. The Criteria are: • Criterion 1. Students • Criterion 2. Program Educational Objectives • Criterion 3. Student Outcomes • Criterion 4. Continuous Improvement • Criterion 5. Curriculum
• Criterion 6. Faculty • Criterion 7. Facilities • Criterion 8. Institutional Support
ABET evaluators initially planned to conduct a face-to-face site visit from Novem- ber 12–14, 2023. However, after consultation with the USA Embassy in Kingston, Jamaica, the ABET team decided to conduct a virtual visit. All requested data will be available on a web portal to accommodate this virtual visit. The Electronics Engineering Programme is the only ABET-accredited programme in the Faculty of Engineering. The faculty was granted this accreditation in 2018. All the other programmes in the Faculty of Engineering are structured to operate using ABET quality assurance measures. Applications will be made to seek ABET accreditation for the other programs over the next two years. Faculty Academic Quality Assurance In an effort to improve our teaching and learning outcomes, three courses were submitted to the Faculty’s Academic Quality Assurance Committee (FAQAC) and reviewed and corrected. Each course has been submitted for cross-campus approval from St Augustine, also feedback from both CETL and OOL. These are as follows:
