What is the Association for Evaluation and Accreditation of Engineering Programs (MÜDEK)?

The BAU Computer Engineering, Biomedical Engineering, Electrical and Electronics Engineering, Industrial Engineering, Energy Engineering, Civil Engineering, Mechatronics Engineering and Software Engineering undergraduate programs have been granted MÜDEK accreditation by MÜDEK, the Association for Evaluation and Accreditation of Engineering Programs.

What is MÜDEK?

The Association for Evaluation and Accreditation of Engineering Programs (MÜDEK) is an independent organization that aims to contribute to improving the quality of engineering education by carrying out accreditation, evaluation and information activities for engineering education programs in various disciplines.

MÜDEK was established in 2002 as an independent platform under the name Engineering Evaluation Board by the Engineering Deans Council, composed of the deans of faculties providing engineering education in Türkiye and the TRNC, in order to develop and implement a detailed program for the evaluation of the undergraduate engineering programs of these faculties; it began evaluating engineering programs in 2003 and became an association in 2007.

Apart from MÜDEK's administrative staff, all individuals serving on MÜDEK boards, committees, working groups and accreditation evaluation teams work on a voluntary basis without receiving any compensation.

MÜDEK has been a member of the European Network for Accreditation of Engineering Education (ENAEE) since 17 November 2006 and a signatory (member) of the Washington Accord (WA) since 15 June 2011.
