Outcome-Based Education (OBE)

Outcome-Based Education (OBE) is a student-centric learning model that helps teachers to plan the course delivery and assessment with the end point in mind. This is intimated to the curriculum development team at institutions before they create the curriculum for each program and course. Being an affiliated college, Sree Sankara College adhere to the guidelines of Mahatma Gandhi University in this matter.

Program Outcomes (PO)

Program outcomes are narrower statements that describe what students will be able to do by the time of graduation. POs are expected to be aligned closely with Graduate Attributes.
