ABSTRACT

In order to address the challenges faced by local universities in implementing Outcome-Based Education (OBE) concepts in engineering accreditation and the insufficient development of professional connotation, this paper uses the example of the School of Electronics, Electrical Engineering and Control at Qilu University of Technology. It discusses how the school leverages the advantages of integrating education and research by streamlining evaluation data, reducing evaluation steps, optimizing evaluation methods, and reconstructing a quality logic system centered on training objectives for continuous improvement. This results in a triple-loop evaluation and continuous improvement mechanism. The school also conducts regular evaluations of the curriculum system, implementing "burden reduction and efficiency enhancement" to guide the program back to the original intention of accreditation, truly reflecting the effectiveness of accreditation and promoting the development of professional connotation.
