CRITERION 3 - STUDENT OUTCOMES This section presents the Student Outcomes of the Informatics Engineering Program defined as narrower

statements that describe what students are expected to know and able to do at the time of graduation. The section also presents the relationship between Student Outcomes and Pbgram-EducatioDbjectiN/s; d how;Student Outcomes are related to curriculum r#corss. The faculty plays an important role in defining, revising and achieving the Student Outcomes as well as actively participates in the assessment and evaluation processes.

Table 3.1 shows the relationship between the URP Informatics Engineering Student Outcomes and the ABET (a) to (k) Student Outcomes. It can be noted that each ABET Outcome is related to one or more URP Outcomes.

B. Relationship of Student Outcomes and Program Educational Objectives The manner in which the Student Outcomes support the Program Educational Objectives is shown in Table 3.2 where it can be noted that all Educational Objectives correspond to two or more Student Outcomes. In this way, by assuring the achievement of Student Outcomes, Program Educational Objectives are expected to be accomplished.

C. Relationshsp Between the Curriculum and Student Outcomes The curriculum of the Informatics Engineering Program has been designed to support the achievjsmeht of Student Outcomes which are produced through such components as coLirse^:;labor^tory xpriences; design projects, snior design project, and Co-Op work as&ignrnents. Tble 3.3 shows the relatiqnship between Student Outcomes and the courses of the curriculum of the Infrm^icsErtgiiieering Rrogram. It is noted that each course contributes to the ^evelagment^djachie^menlofStu In Table 3.3, numbers 1, 2f 3 arid 4 iridicatlhe l#el f deveopmnt of the iiideht Outcomes in each course: Level 1: Know Leve! 2: Comprehend Leve! 3: Apply at intermedate level Level 4: Apply at advanced evel. Achievement of Student Outcome From Table 3.3, it is clear that some courses support the Outcome at an iniial -level, other courses at an intermedate level, and other at a high or complete level *hjch finally represents the Outcomes expected from the graduales of the Informatics Engineering Program. A more detailed description of the knowledge, skills and behaviors develped in the courses of the curriculum and aiming to the achievement of each Student Outcome is r shown in Table 3.4 Tables 3.3 and 3.4 were develped by the Program Assessment Committee tking into consideration input from the faculfy of the Informatics Engineering Program and adjusted, if necessary, in the revisin process of Student Outcomes or when curriculum chngs are propped and implemented.
