Abstract
Learning outcomes are skill and ability acquired shortly after the conclusion of a learning session, which is typically a 14-week semester in undergraduate engineering degree program. In this report, a 4 year programme offering 130 credit hours is chosen as an example. One of the criteria in Outcome Based Education is the assessment of learning outcomes as achievement indicator for continuous performance quality management. This criterion is driving educators to look for ways to deliver continuous improvement. This paper reports on practical method of assessing the learning outcomes on unit by unit and the contributions to the degree programme learning outcomes.
