摘要
Developing an engineering curriculum in order to meet the local and regional market needs is of great importance. Seeking professional and academic accreditation from world-wide organizations, such as National Commission of Academic Accreditation and Assessment in Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology should be considered. This paper discusses different stages of developing the specifications and curriculum of Construction Engineering Program in the College of Engineering, University of Dammam. Feedback from the main stakeholders in the local area as well as the academic reviewers from well-known international universities is presented and discussed. Comparison between the proposed curriculum with similar accredited programs worldwide is also presented.
