Course Outcomes (COs) are clearly defined statements prepared for every course offered in an academic program. They specify the measurable knowledge, skills, and competencies that students are expected to acquire by the end of the course. COs focus on subject-specific understanding as well as the application of concepts, problem-solving ability, analytical thinking, design capability, and practical implementation skills. These outcomes are framed in alignment with the principles of Outcome-Based Education (OBE), where the emphasis is on what learners can demonstrate after completing a learning experience rather than merely what is taught. COs are generally written using action verbs based on Bloom's Taxonomy to ensure they are observable and measurable.
