Engineering Education Certification From the Perspective of Project Management - A Systematic Analysis of Graduation Requirements and Accomplishment

Engineering undergraduate education can be regarded as a four-five-year education project. Engineering education certification is the qualification quality evaluation of the project implementation results. In this paper, from the project management perspective, graduation requirements of certification and the "systematicness" in the evaluation of the achievement degree are analyzed to deepen the theoretical understanding of certification standards. The integrity, hierarchy and relevance of the twelve graduation requirements are expounded, and the systematic concept is applied to solve the problem of the evaluation objects encountered in the graduation achievement evaluation. Keywords—engineering education certification; graduation requirements; project management; systematic Engineering education certification, one of the important contents of engineering education of "five-in-one" education evaluation system in our country in the new era, is an effective tool to improve the quality of education and also becomes the focus of engineering undergraduate education. Engineering education certification has been fully promoted in our country since China officially became the 18th Member State of the Washington Agreement in June 2, 2016. By the end of 2017, 833 engineering professions in 197 universities have been or will be certified, including all 211 and 985 engineeringoriented colleges [1]. For students, undergraduate education in engineering can be viewed as a four-five-year project that are designed to train students to meet the graduation requirements at their graduation, gain an undergraduate degree in engineering and achieve their goals to become engineering professionals in five years. Graduation requirements and its achievement evaluation are the core of engineering education certification, which support the realization of training objectives, guide the construction of curriculum system and the design of teaching links, and are the basis of continuous improvement at the same time. The correct understanding of the graduation requirements in the certification standards is of great significance to carry out the certification of engineering education, promote the undergraduate education and learn reforms. Undergraduate pharmaceutical engineering in Kunming University of Science and Technology received the national engineering education certification respectively in June, 2014 and 2017. On the basis of related concepts of engineering education certification and the practice of engineering certification of pharmaceutical engineering specialty, the setting of graduation requirements and the "systematicness" reflected in the evaluation of the achievement degree are analyzed in this article, aiming to deepen the theoretical understanding of certification standards and provide assistance in carrying out professional certification successfully.
