In the Eastern United States to seek accreditation of Its engineering Curriculum as a whole (that Is, the right to offer a general a.E.) Instead of trying to specialize In one or two areas. Acoordlng to Dean Friedman, the reason that Stevens haa never sought accreditation

In a specific area Is beoause specializing (offering a B.E. specifically In Chem. Eng. for example) would mean that Stevens would have to meet reqUirements set by the ECPD in that area. Such requirements would follow guidelines fr.om one of the Council's member societies (In this example the A.I.Ch.E.• although virtually alii engineering societies belong to the ECPD). The result might be that other core courses in engineering would have to be dropped. to ,make room and (Conllnued on page 2, col. 1)
