Outcome based Education is a process of defining and setting expected goals and outcomes in the form of competencies that the students should display as a result of undergoing a learning experience. This learning experience can be a short term course or a graduate program.

SSN College of Engineering has converted this process into an institution wide philosophy to establish itself as a world class engineering institution. With a well defined vision statement encompassing the chief objectives of the founders, specific initiatives have been designed. Each objective is broken down into a set of actionable steps towards achieving the outcome of producing employable engineers. The metrics are defined to measure the success of the activities. These initiatives have led to establishing itself as a premier engineering institution within a short period of 19 years and having successful alumni in diverse walks of life.

This process can be used by new private engineering colleges to link management and academic objectives to produce world class technical institutions.

Abstract


Outcome based Education is a process of defining and setting expected goals and outcomes in the form of competencies that the students should display as a result of undergoing a learning experience. This learning experience can be a short term course or a graduate program.

SSN College of Engineering has converted this process into an institution wide philosophy to establish itself as a world class engineering institution. With a well defined vision statement encompassing the chief objectives of the founders, specific initiatives have been designed. Each objective is broken down into a set of actionable steps towards achieving the outcome of producing employable engineers. The metrics are defined to measure the success of the activities. These initiatives have led to establishing itself as a premier engineering institution within a short period of 19 years and having successful alumni in diverse walks of life.

This process can be used by new private engineering colleges to link management and academic objectives to produce world class technical institutions.
