==How are we accredited==
Evaluation of a program is based on an array of '''''graduate attributes''''' and '''''accredidation accreditation attributes'''''. Each course at McGill is independently quantified through these attributes, all contributing to the programs overall weight. The curriculum content for each course can normally found in a course syllabus at the beginning of the semester.<br>The accreditation attributes all are intended to contribute to the overall '''''graduate attributes''''' the CEAB wants each student to have at the end of their academic career.
For example:
::MIME456 contributes is deemed to the retention of '''KB''', '''PA''', '''IN''', '''IT''', and '''CS''' teach students::MIME456 also earns
::*'''8 AUs''' in ''Mathematics''
::*'''5 AUs''' in ''Natural Sciences''
::*'''16 AUs''' in ''Engineering Sciences''
::*'''10 AUs''' in ''Engineering Design''
::Therefore, MIME456 contributes to the retention of '''KB''', '''PA''', '''IN''', '''IT''', and '''CS''' ''[[CEAB#Graduate Attributes|(see below)]]''
