Outcome Based Education

As per the philosophy of OBE, expected outcomes from the students at different stages during their time in the program are articulated ahead of time and all the academic activities are planned and implemented such that they all contribute to the attainment of these outcomes. The curriculum of the program, teaching and learing processes, infrastructural facilities and the co-curricular and extra-curricular activities are all planned and organized with the overall objectives in mind.
