PO9

Function effectively as an individual, and as a member or leader in diverse teams and in multi-disciplinary settings.

PO10

Communicate effectively on developmental or 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.

 

PO11

Project management: demonstrate knowledge and understanding of engineering management and financial principles and apply these to one’s own work, as a member and leader in a team, to manage projects, and in multi-disciplinary environments.

 

 

PO12

Lifelong learning: recognize the need for, and have the preparations and ability to engage in independent and life-long learning in the broadest context of technological and societal changes.

 

Programme Educational Objectives (PEOs) of the Department

It is expected that our graduates will achieve one or more of the following PEOs adopted by the department within the first three to five years of their graduation from our program:

  1. Generate practical solutions that meet the needs of industries as well as government at both local and international level and actively engage in multidisciplinary teams in implementing these solutions. 

  2. Establish themselves in a diverse range of mechanical engineering practice and capable of translating engineering solutions into business opportunities. 

  3. Demonstrate ethical responsibility through involvement with community and/or professional organization and/or contribute towards a sustainable society. 

The PEOs are visibly displayed in the departmental office and published in the Departmental student handbook.

The PEOs are evaluated from the positive employer’s feedback we get from our graduates, which are done through interviews/interactions with employers and questionnaires. The department has also appointed an active alumni focal person and graduates/alumni data bases are updated on an ongoing basis. Our Alumni on different occasions also engage in interactive sessions with current staff/students of the department where they share their various career progressions and provide valuable insights for current students to stay focused and excel after graduation. These alumni feedbacks are taken into consideration when courses are reviewed.
