University of Texas at San Antonio
Graduate, B.S. Civil Engineering

I’m not sure if I knew much about ABET when choosing an undergraduate institution, but I do want to be sure that the graduate school I attend is ABET-accredited. The ABET-accredited Civil Engineering Program at UTSA is fairly young compared to most universities, but it is constantly growing and improving.

I saw vast changes take place over the four years that I spent there. It is still small enough to

learn on a personal level, but also large enough to be a strong competitor and present its students with great opportunities. I know that I have gotten a quality education that I can now rely and build on.

Accredited Programs at HBCUs

Howard University was the first historically black college or university to have ABET-accredited programs. ABET's predecessor, the Engineers' Council for Professional Development, accredited three engineering programs there in 1937.
