Program Outcome (PO)

For Every degree Programme broad expectations should be listed by the University. Examples are given below from NBA for an Engineering Degree Programme.

PO 1: Engineering knowledge: Apply the knowledge of mathematics, science, engineering fundamentals, and an

           engineering specialization to the solution of complex engineering problems.

PO 2: Problem analysis: Identify, formulate, research literature, and analyze complex engineering problems

          reaching substantiated conclusions using first principles of mathematics, natural sciences, and engineering

           sciences.

PO 3: Design/development of solutions: Design solutions for complex engineering problems and design system

         components or processes that meet the specified needs with appropriate consideration for the public health and

         safety, and the cultural, societal, and environmental considerations.

PO 4: Conduct investigations of complex problems: Use research-based knowledge and research

        methods including design of experiments, analysis and interpretation of data, and synthesis of the

        information to provide valid conclusions.

PO 5: Modern tool usage: Create, select, and apply appropriate techniques, resources, and modern

         engineering and IT tools including prediction and modeling to complex engineering activities with

         an understanding of the limitations.

PO 6: The engineer and society: Apply reasoning informed by the contextual knowledge to assess

         societal, health, safety, legal and cultural issues and the consequent responsibilities relevant to

            the professional engineering practice.

PO 7: Environment and sustainability:  Understand the impact of the professional engineering solutions in societal

          and environmental contexts, and demonstrate the knowledge of, and need for sustainable development.

PO 8: Ethics: Apply ethical principles and commit to professional ethics and responsibilities and norms

         of the engineering practice.

PO 9: Individual and team work: Function effectively as an individual, and as a member or leader in

        diverse teams, and in multidisciplinary settings.

PO 10: Communication: Communicate effectively on complex engineering activities with the

          engineering community and with   society at large, such as, being able to comprehend and write

          effective reports and design documentation, make effective presentations, and give and receive

          clear instructions. 

PO 11: Project management and finance: Demonstrate knowledge and understanding of the

          engineering and management principles    and apply these to one’s own work, as a member and

          leader in a team, to manage projects and in multidisciplinary environments.

PO 12: Life-long learning: Recognize the need for, and have the preparation and ability to engage in

          independent and life- long learning in the broadest context of technological change.
