Association of Evaluation and Accreditation of Engineering Programs
Association for Evaluation and Accreditation of Engineering Programs (MÜDEK), is a non-governmental organization operating for the purpose of contributing to the enhancement of quality of engineering education by means of the accreditation and evaluation of and providing information services for engineering education programs in various disciplines.
MÜDEK was initially established with the name of Engineering Evaluation Board as an independent, non-governmental platform in 2002 by the Engineering Deans Council (MDK), which is formed by the deans of faculties administering engineering education programs in Turkey and TRNC, in order to prepare and conduct a comprehensive program for the evaluation of engineering undergraduate programs run by these faculties and started the evaluation of engineering programs in 2003. MÜDEK became an association in 2007.
Except MÜDEK administrative staff, all individuals who participate in MÜDEK boards, committees, working groups, and accreditation evaluation teams work on voluntary basis without any salary.
MÜDEK is a member of European Network for Accreditation of Engineering Education (ENAEE) since November 17, 2006 and is a full signatory (member) of Washington Accord (WA) since June 15, 2011.

| Course Code and Name | FE401 – Multidisciplinary Integrated Project |
| Credıt/Ects | 4/5 |
| Course Content | This course gives students the opportunity to become exposed to engineering disciplines (Civil, Electrical, Mechanical and computer engineering) by introducing problem situations that force them to link theory to practical real-world problems involving areas outside their own engineering disciplines. A multidisciplinary team environment forces students to interact with people that do not necessarily think like themselves and value the skills that other team members provide. Every graduating student will have “a multidisciplinary experience” during his or her undergraduate career. The use of a multidisciplinary integrated project provides one appealing pathway to achieve such experience. In this course, real world multidisciplinary design experiences are used to prepare HKU graduates to enter today’s workforce. Undergraduate students from different engineering departments may sign performance contracts (for some modest team task) in turn with faculty advisers. Such “vertical and horizontal integration” of student participants allows an early preview of design team organization, and first-hand experience in viewing both good and poor team behavior. The team may design both the product and the company, the former as a typical engineering product or process and the latter through development of a corporate business plan. |
| Course Code and Name | FE400 – Cooperative Education |
| Credıt/Ects | 4/30 |
| Course Content | An Internship is a supervised pre-professional learning experience that allows students to apply their skills and knowledge in a professional setting. These experiences are designed to enhance the student’s preparedness for an intended career with a business, industry, or government agency. Cooperative education is a partnership between academic institutions and the practical world of work. For students, it is a formal education and practical experience in business, industry or government agency, a blend of theory and application, new skills and knowledge, a competitive salary, and a validation of career choice. Cooperative education is different from internship. It lasts 14 weeks (one semester). A co-op student of alternate semester should work and study as a full-time study. |
