 APPENDIX B
Outcome Based Education

Outcome-based education (OBE) is an educational theory that bases each part of an

educational system around goals (outcomes). By the end of the educational experience each
student should have achieved the goal. There is no specified style of teaching or assessment
in OBE; instead classes, opportunities, and assessments should all help students achieve the
specified outcomes.

There are three educational Outcomes as defined by the National Board of Accreditation:
Program Educational Objectives: The Educational objectives of an engineering degree
program are the statements that describe the expected achievements of graduate in their
career and also in particular what the graduates are expected to perform and achieve during
the first few years after graduation. [nbaindia.org]

Program Outcomes: What the student would demonstrate upon graduation. Graduate
attributes are separately listed in Appendix C

Course Outcome: The specific outcome/s of each course/subject that is a part of the
program curriculum. Each subject/course is expected to have a set of Course Outcomes

Mapping of Outcomes

55
 APPENDIX C
The Graduate Attributes of NBA
Engineering knowledge: Apply the knowledge of mathematics, science, engineering
fundamentals, and an engineering specialization to the solution of complex engineering
problems.

Problem analysis: Identify, formulate, research literature, and analyse complex engineering
problems reaching substantiated conclusions using first principles of mathematics, natural
sciences, and engineering sciences.

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.
Conduct investigations of complex problems: The problems that cannot be solved by
straightforward application of knowledge, theories and techniques applicable to the
engineering discipline that may not have a unique solution. For example, a design problem
can be solved in many ways and lead to multiple possible solutions that require
consideration of appropriate constraints/requirements not explicitly given in the problem
statement (like: cost, power requirement, durability, product life, etc.) which need to be
defined (modeled) within appropriate mathematical framework that often require use of
modern computational concepts and tools.

Modern tool usage: Create, select, and apply appropriate techniques, resources, and
modern engineering and IT tools including prediction and modelling to complex engineering
activities with an understanding of the limitations.

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.

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.

Ethics: Apply ethical principles and commit to professional ethics and responsibilities and
norms of the engineering practice.

Individual and team work: Function effectively as an individual, and as a member or leader
in diverse teams, and in multidisciplinary settings.

56
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.
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.

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.

57
 APPENDIX D
BLOOM’S TAXONOMY

Bloom’s taxonomy is a classification system used to define and distinguish different levels
of human cognition—i.e., thinking, learning, and understanding. Educators have typically
used Bloom’s taxonomy to inform or guide the development of assessments (tests and other
evaluations of student learning), curriculum (units, lessons, projects, and other learning
activities), and instructional methods such as questioning strategies.
