Assessment process deals with the methodologies adopted to determine the degree of attainment of program outcomes, assignment of resposibilities for the assessment and the data collection and analysis procedures. Course outcome assessment is an important part of PO assessment. These assessment process followed is similer. The assessmetn process followed by Dept. of EEE is described in the following steps. Step 1. Organize for assessment : The program co-ordinator / HOD forms a Dept. Assessment Committee comprising senior faculty members. The committee prepares an assessmetn plan at the beginning of academic year. The plan specifies the program outcomes whose attainment are planned to be assessed during the acadmic year and the assessment methods to be followed.

Identification of assessment methods and targets for each program outcomes These are defferent assessmetn methods followed : Direct methods of indirect methods which are described later. Some guidelines followed for selecting the assessment methods are as follows : 1 Use multiple methods to assess each PO 2 Include both direct and indirect measures 3 Include qualitative as well as quantitative measures 4 Select at least two measures for each PO one of which is direct 5 Specify criteria for success in the form of percentages, percenties,- averages etc. Step 3. Collect the data The overall strategy is to gather many different kinds of information, incliding quantitative and qualitative data both from internal and external sources. The objective of the assessment is to primarily confirm that the students of EEE program are achieving the desired outcomes but also to look for quality measures. Faculty members are assigned the responsibility to collect the data. Step 4. Analyze the results After collecting the evidence on student performance, analysis and interpretation of the evidence is carried cut by the faculty members. For the analysis the targetted achievement levels of the levels of achievement are carefully compared.

Step 5. Preparation of assessment report: assessment reports are prepared by the teams of

faculty members responsible for each PO. As course outcome assessment is an important components of PO assessment the course assessment reports prepared by the faculty members teaching the courses are incorporated in the PO assessment report.
