Attainment of PO-CO

To evaluate attainment of CO and PO, all the department have Departmental Assessment Committee (DAC) which consist of all departmental faculties and Programme Advisory Committee (PAC) which consists with the departmental faculty members along with Principal and IQAC co-ordinator. The main moto is to adopt specific measures to oversee the achievement of program outcomes (POs) and course outcomes (COs). The DAC meets at least once in every semester for evaluation of the programme and course outcome and sends report to PAC. Then the PAC meets with Academic Committee once in a year and sends report to IQAC.
The results derived from CO attainment are instrumental in assessing the achievement of PSOs and POs. The evaluation of COs is largely achieved through direct methods, with indirect methods contributing to a smaller degree. 
Finally, 80% of CGPA + 20% Internal Assessment is taken for consideration for attainment of COs and POs and those who got less than 50% in this method are termed as slow learner and more than 80%, then termed as advanced learner.

  1. DIRECT METHODS: Evaluation of students incorporates both Continuous Internal Assessment throughout the year and the End-of-Semester Examination. 
    A. Continuous Internal Assessment: Student understanding and the development of relevant skills are assessed through activities such as seminars, assignments, project tasks, laboratory performance, poster presentations, PowerPoint presentations, class tests, and college tests. Students are encouraged to enquire and engage in critical thinking, which aids in their understanding and analysis of modern societal, environmental, and cultural dilemmas. Efforts are made to develop their communication skills, enabling effective discourse of ideas and information. There are opportunities for students to interact with prominent figures from various sectors, including scientific, academic, industrial, and social workers, enriching their overall exposure and knowledge. As per the norms of the affiliating University, the college conducts an internal assessment worth 20 marks. This evaluation includes 10 marks for attendance and 10 marks for internal assessment.
    B. Semester Examination Performance Analysis: The assessment of semester examination performance illustrates that the grades acquired through formative and summative evaluations are direct measures of the accomplishment of specific Course Objectives (COs)
  2. INDIRECT METHODS: 
    A. Effective Feedback Mechanism: The collection of feedback from students, alumni, parents, and employers is a vital approach for evaluating student success concerning program outcomes, specific program goals, and course objectives.
    B. Comprehensive Development of Students: Instructors aim to instill a passion for learning in students, promoting their ability to adapt to changes in their environment and academic disciplines. They also contribute to the development of leadership abilities and essential professional and life skills. 
    C. Student Progression: A key indicator of program success is the transition of students to advanced studies at various institutions within the state and across the country. 
    D. Job Placement and Employability: The levels of employability and job placement are important indicators of program outcomes and course objectives.
