Programme Outcomes

PO1 – Knowledge: Apply knowledge of mathematics, natural science, computing and engineering fundamentals and an engineering specialization to defined and applied engineering procedures, processes, systems or methodologies.
PO2 – Problem Analysis: Identify, formulate, research literature and analyse broadly-defined engineering problems reaching substantiated conclusions using analytical tools appropriate to their discipline or area of specialisation with considerations for sustainable development.
PO3 – Design/Development of Solutions: Design solutions for broadly-defined engineering technology problems and contribute to the design of systems, components or processes to meet identified needs with appropriate consideration for public health and safety, whole-life cost, net zero carbon as well as resource, cultural, societal, and environmental considerations as required.
PO4 – Investigation: Conduct investigations of broadly-defined engineering problems; locate, search and select relevant data from codes, databases and literature, design and conduct experiments to provide valid conclusions.
PO5 – Tool Usage: Select and apply, and recognize limitations of appropriate techniques, resources, and modern engineering and IT tools, including prediction and modelling, to broadly-defined engineering problems.
PO6 – The Engineering Technologist and the World: Analyze and evaluate sustainable development impacts to: society, the economy, sustainability, health and safety, legal frameworks, and the environment, in solving broadly-defined engineering problems.
PO7 – Ethics: Understand and commit to professional ethics and norms of engineering technology practice and adhere to relevant national and international laws. Demonstrate an understanding of the need for diversity and inclusion.
PO8 – Individual and Collaborative Teamwork: Function effectively as an individual, and as a member or leader in diverse and inclusive teams and in multi-disciplinary, face-to-face, remote and distributed settings.
PO9 – Communication: Communicate effectively and inclusively on broadly-defined engineering activities with the engineering community and with society at large, by being able to comprehend and write effective reports and design documentation, make effective presentations, taking into account cultural, language, and learning differences.
PO10 – Project Management: Apply knowledge and understanding of engineering management principles and economic decision-making to one's own work, as a member and leader in a team and to manage projects in multidisciplinary environments.
PO11 – Lifelong Learning: Recognize the need for, and have the ability for i) independent and life-long learning and ii) critical thinking in the face of new specialist technologies.
PO12 – Personal and Entrepreneurial Skills: Demonstrate ability to engage effectively in self-improvement initiatives for career, professional or educational goals and engage in entrepreneurial activities.
