A Comparative Research On The Accreditation System Of Higher Engineering Education Between China And American

Building engineering technology talents to meet the demand of new industrialization development is relying on a perfect personnel training system to provide,and the professional accreditation of higher engineering education,as an important means to guarantee the quality of the engineering education personnel training,it must take the initiative to adapt to the new situation and achieve the innovation and development.By establish and improve the professional accreditation system of higher engineering education,it will plays an important role to improve the quality of higher engineering education in our country and international competitiveness.By analyzing relevant literatures,the author describes the study of background,functions,problems,then define the interrelated concept of professional accreditation.On this basis,combine the generation and development of professional accreditation system in China and America.Clear the political,economic and cultural background which the professional accreditation system has based on.After clarifying the background of the two countries' professional accreditation system,the author has carried out a comparative study on the professional accreditation system from the aspects of accreditation criteria,accreditation subject,and accreditation procedure.Combined with the statistical data,we analysis the reasons of the differences.By comparing the two accreditation system found that the deficiencies of current professional accreditation system in our country,and puts forward some suggestions to improve and perfect our accreditation system.Through the analysis we can find that American accreditation criteria has a accurate target,accreditation subject has a strong color of unofficial intermediary.But the accreditation criteria of our country are relatively single and there are not enough intermediary organizations participate in the accreditation.Through comparing with the professional accreditation system of America we can find many shortages of our system.The author suggests that in order to improve the accreditation of our country we should set more accreditation which are scientific and target clearly according to different types of universities and different characteristics of majors,so we can find shortages of the system which can promote us to improve the accreditation system instantly.
