Engineering quality system among local universities has undergone stiff competition in reflecting the outcomes of education. The capability of each university of maintaining their academic structures must be given attention in order for it to stay competitive. The purpose of this paper is to develop a reliable academic quality management system for accreditation of engineering education based on EAC and MQA requirements. The main structure includes the institutional engineering curriculum, co-curriculum, governance and a systematic documentation system. The stakeholder inputs are used as elements in responding to industry and government needs. Reviewing inputs, self-assessment reports (SAR), different best practices and additional inputs helped in supporting and strengthening this academic quality management system. Three main planning elements were involved namely, establishment, assessment and continuous improvement stages. With the development of reliable academic quality management, engineering knowledge, skills and attitudes can be further enhanced to improve the quality of our graduates. The model can significantly become a platform for maintaining accreditation as well as sharing some best practices for other institutions offering similar programmes. As such, engineering education is set to reach greater heights in producing right human capital assets in nurturing future engineers.
