OUTCOME BASED EDUCATION



Program Educational Objectives (PEOs) for BE Metallurgy & Materials Program at SCME

Based  on  the  mission  spelled  for  SCME,  following  are  the  four  educational objectives set for BE Metallurgy and Materials Program.

PEO Statement
PEO-1 To excel as materials engineers in traditional and emerging fields with sound engineering knowledge and to attain the ability to solve complex engineering problems using modern tools.
PEO-2 To Enhance their professional skills and technical knowledge through life-long learning.
PEO-3 To lead or participate in efforts to address societal and technical/ business challenges.
PEO-4 To practice and adhere to the principles of professional ethics, keeping in mind the social and environmental implications.

Program Learning Outcomes (PLOs) for Metallurgy & Materials Engineering at SCME

The graduates of Metallurgy and Materials Engineering department (SCME) are expected to bring the following qualities to the organization they join;

PLO-1. Engineering Knowledge:  An ability to apply knowledge of mathematics, science, engineering fundamentals and an engineering specialization to the solution of complex engineering problems.

PLO-2.  Problem  Analysis:  An  ability  to  identify,  formulate,  research  literature,  and  analyze complex engineering problems reaching substantiated conclusions using first principles of mathematics, natural sciences and engineering sciences.

PLO-3. Design/Development of Solutions:  An ability to design solutions for complex engineering problems and design systems, components or processes that meet specified needs with appropriate consideration for public health and safety, cultural, societal, and environmental considerations.

PLO-4. Investigation:  An ability to investigate complex engineering problems in a methodical way  including  literature  survey,  design  and  conduct  of  experiments,  analysis  and interpretation  of  experimental  data,  and  synthesis  of  information  to  derive  valid conclusions.

PLO-5. Modern  Tool  Usage:  An  ability  to  create,  select  and  apply  appropriate  techniques, resources, and modern engineering and IT tools, including prediction and modeling, to complex engineering activities, with an understanding of the limitations.

PLO-6. The  Engineer  and  Society:  An  ability  to  apply  reasoning  informed  by  contextual knowledge to assess societal, health, safety, legal and cultural issues and the consequent responsibilities  relevant  to  professional  engineering  practice  and  solution  to  complex engineering problems.

PLO-7. Environment and Sustainability:  An ability to understand the impact of professional engineering  solutions  in  societal  and  environmental  contexts  and  demonstrate knowledge of and need for sustainable development.

PLO-8. Ethics:  Apply ethical principles and commit to professional ethics and responsibilities and norms of engineering practice.

PLO-9. Individual and Team Work:  An ability to  work  effectively, as  an  individual  or  in  a team, on multifaceted and /or multidisciplinary settings.

PLO-10. Communication:  An ability to communicate effectively, orally as well as in writing, 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.

PLO-11. Project Management:  An ability to demonstrate management skills  and  apply  engineering  principles  to  one’s  own  work,  as  a  member  and/or  leader  in  a  team,  to manage projects in a multidisciplinary environment.

PLO-12. Lifelong Learning:  An ability to recognize importance of, and pursue lifelong learning in the broader context of innovation and technological developments.
