Students enrolled in any of our programs should be able to realize in a steady manner the following career and professional accomplishments three to five years after graduation. Thus, for each program, our Alumni (PEO) / Student (PO) shall:
DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A PROGRAM EDUCATIONAL OBJECTIVES (PEOs) and PROGRAM OUTCOMES (POs)
PEOs are broad statements that describe what graduates are expected to achieve in their professional and career practice three to five years after graduation. Program educational objectives are based on the needs of the program’s constituencies, while:
POs (aka Student Outcomes) specify what students are expected to know and be able to do by the time of graduation. These relate to the skills, knowledge, and behaviors that students acquire as they progress through the program.
