Abstract
With the growing importance of professional accreditation in engineering education, the demand for IEET (Institute of Engineering Education Taiwan) professional accreditation services in mainland China is on the rise. Regrettably, no literature currently compiles and analyzes IEET's accreditation services in the mainland. For the first time, this study compiles IEET accreditation data in mainland China and analyzes the valuable information behind it from multiple perspectives. As of the end of 2022, 77 universities in mainland China have received IEET accreditation, encompassing 244 accredited majors. We conduct a detailed analysis of IEET accreditation in mainland China from seven perspectives, including educational levels, the nature of the institutions, the number of accredited majors in a single institution, accredited institutions and majors under different accreditation specifications, and accredited institutions and majors in different provinces and years. This research can serve as an auxiliary data source for education authorities to guide university specialization construction and provide a decision-making basis for universities involved in IEET accreditation.
