eyemgh:

I’m not following how you’re deriving that and what it means. I know the OP is looking at Civil, but if there are 500+ “more stringent” ME programs than those that are ABET accredited, maybe you can list 10 of them.

No, no. I was referring to the total number of ABET approved programs (~850 and that’s from theirwebsite) minus the number you say are strictly ME (“the proxy for U.S. programs”.) That leaves ~500 non-ME programs that nevertheless meet ABET approval in the USA and around the world. That’s all I’m saying.
