University of North Dakota says it is ABET accredited. That's the only one I've been able to find.

Gotcha. I'd make sure before signing up, but if it is, have at it.

I have a friend that went to UND for Chemical Engineering. However, he already had a Chemistry degree from LSU and had been working in a lab for years. He was able to transfer within his own company from the lab to engineering. He was treated as a new hire/college engineer.

The degree did receive some pushback and was not as widely accepted. I think his LSU chemistry and experience helped a lot.

As far as difficulty, it didn't seem too bad. He had to spend a few summers in ND for labs, and did a bunch of online homework/video chats for group projects.

I honestly think it would only work for someone like that. Someone who already has a degree from a more accredited/recognized school, and is just trying to transfer knowledge and put "P.E." behind his name.
