Program Learning Outcomes

The PLOs are desirable graduate attributes at the time of graduation of a student. Through the courses delivery and assessments, it will be ensured that the graduates achieve majority of the PLOs at a high level. The next section lists the attributes followed by their mapping with PEOs, assessment criteria and the revision process.

PLOs as Defined by PEC Accreditation Manual-2014
The PEC Accreditation Manual-2014 lists the following set of knowledge, skills and behavioral traits to be achieved by an Engineering undergraduate program. Department of Civil Engineering, Faculty of Engineering, QUSIT, D. I. Khan has also as adopted the same list of attributes and expects the students to acquire the following attributes by the end of the program. These attributes will be updated based on periodic reviews of the attainment level in the further years. The list of attributes is given as:

PLO-1 (Engineering Knowledge)

Apply knowledge of mathematics, science, engineering fundamentals, and engineering specialization to solve complex engineering problems.

PLO-2 (Problem Analysis)

Identify, formulate, analyze, and solve complex engineering problems using appropriate engineering principles.

PLO-3 (Design/Development of Solutions)

Design systems, components, and processes considering health, safety, environmental, and societal needs.

PLO-4 (Investigation)

Conduct investigations using research methods, experiments, and data analysis to reach valid conclusions.

PLO-5 (Modern Tool Usage)

Use modern engineering and IT tools for engineering analysis, modeling, and problem-solving.

PLO-6 (The Engineer and Society)

Apply contextual knowledge to assess societal, legal, cultural, and safety issues in engineering practice.

PLO-7 (Environment and Sustainability)
