Program Specific Outcomes (PSOs)

Program Specific Outcomes (PSOs)

The course outcomes were prepared by using action verbs of modified Bloom's Taxonomy. All the course outcomes are prepared in such a way that they are measurable by means of written and oral skills, presentations etc. The various assessment processes used to gather the data for evaluation of course outcomes are as follows.

1. Internal (Mid) Examinations: Two Mid Examinations are conducted for 2nd, 3rd and 4th year students in each semester as per the university prescribed norms. Mid-1 is conducted from first, second, third and fourth units of the course syllabus. Four descriptive questions each carrying 5 marks are given out of which students have to answer any two questions for a maximum of 5 marks each. Each question is related to one or more course outcomes. It is expected that a student should score at least 3 marks (60%) out of 5 marks for the attainment of that course outcome.

2. Assignment Questions: About 4 to 6 assignment questions are given in each assignment. Each question is mapped to one or more course outcomes. Each question carries 5 marks. It is expected that a student should score at least 70% for the attainment of that course out come. Two assignments are given in each course.

3. End semester university examinations: The question paper for each course is set by the affiliating university. The students have to answer any 5 questions out of given 8 questions. Since the answer scripts are retained by the university, the information regarding the attainment levels of each course outcome cannot be ascertained. However the marks scored by the students in the end semester examination are used to assess the attainment level of the whole course and the same is transferred to each course outcome attainment level, while calculating the overall attainment level. It is expected that a student should score at least 50% of the maximum marks of the course (i.e. 37.5 out of 75) for the attainment of course outcomes.
