<p>So, as the title states, does ABET accreditation matter a whole lot for a degree like Computer Engineering if you are going to a reputable school?</p>
<p>If the school has a reasonably high reputation specific to computer science and engineering, then no.</p>
<p>However, not all generally high reputation schools have a high reputation in computer science and engineering, and some of those have rather limited (non-ABET-accredited) bachelor’s degree programs in those subjects.</p>
<p>Addendum: did not initially notice that you meant graduate degree programs. ABET accreditation for graduate degree programs in engineering and computing is few and far between, and largely not relevant. For graduate school, you need to check the reputation of the specific department in the subject.</p>
<p>Yeah, I meant to ask if I needed an ABET accredited Computer Engineering degree to get into a good graduate school.</p>
