Abstract: |
The goal of this paper is to provide the engineering
community in the Latin American and Caribbean countries an
informative, yet brief description of the engineering accreditation
issues and practices in Canada. This is in light of the inquiries by
universities outside of Canada trying to develop articulations with
the Canadian engineering schools. Some practices that may seem to
be straightforward and feasible in the rest of the world may face
significant challenges by the engineering programs offered in
Canada.
