Section 2: Program Educational Objectives

Broad goals that address institutional and program mission statements and are responsive to the expressed interests
of various groups of program stakeholders.
PEO-1 : PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT: To develop in the students the ability to acquire
knowledge of Mathematics, Science & Engineering and apply it professionally within realistic
constraints such as economic, environmental, social, political, ethical, health and safety,
manufacturability and sustainability with due ethical responsibility.
PEO-2 : CORE PROFICIENCY: To provide ability to identify, formulate, comprehend, analyze,
design and solve engineering problems with hands on experience in various technologies using
modern tools necessary for engineering practice to satisfy the needs of society and the industry.
PEO-3 : TECHNICAL ACCOMPLISHMENTS: To equip the students with the ability to design,
simulate experiment, analyze, optimize and interpret in their core applications through multi-
disciplinary concepts and contemporary learning to build them into industry ready graduates.
PEO-4 : PROFESSIONALISM: To provide training, exposure and awareness on importance of soft
skills for better career and holistic personality development as well as professional attitude
towards ethical issues, team work, responsibility, accountability, multidisciplinary approach
and capability to relate engineering issues to broader social context.
PEO-5 : LEARNING ENVIRONMENT: To provide students with an academic environment and
make them aware of excellence, develop the urge of discovery, creativity, inventiveness,
leadership, written ethical codes and guidelines and the life-long learning to become a
successful professional in Civil Engineering.

Section 3: Program Outcomes

Program Outcomes are attributes of the graduates of the program that are indicative of the graduates’ ability and
competence to work as science professional upon graduation. Program Outcomes are statements that describe
what students are expected to know or be able to do by the time of graduation. They must relate to knowledge
and skills that the students acquire from the program. The achievement of all outcomes indicates that the student
is well prepared to achieve the program educational objectives down the road.
The following 12 POs have been chosen by the Civil Engineering Department of Dev Bhoomi Uttarakhand
University.

The Bachelor of Technology, Civil Engineering curriculum at DBUU has been designed to fully meet all the
12 Program Outcomes:
1. Engineering knowledge: Apply the knowledge of mathematics, science, engineering

diverse teams, and in multidisciplinary settings
10. Communication: Communicate effectively on complex engineering activities with the
engineering community and with the 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
11. Project management and Demonstrate knowledge and understanding of the engineering and
finance: management principles and apply these to one’s own work, as a member
and leader in a team, to manage projects and in multidisciplinary
environments.
12. Life-long learning: Recognize the need for, and have the preparation and ability to engage
in independent and life-long learning in the broadest context of
technological change.

Curriculum Implementation through C-D-I-O Initiative

The CDIO™ INITIATIVE is an innovative educational framework for producing the next generation of engineers. The
framework provides students with an education stressing engineering fundamentals set in the context of Conceiving —
Designing — Implementing — Operating (CDIO) real-world systems and products. Throughout the world, CDIO Initiative
collaborators have adopted CDIO as the framework of their curricular planning and outcome-based assessment [1].
[1] http://www.cdio.org
In this curriculum, the topics in each course have been classified under one or more of C-D-I-O to provide an understanding to
the students and faculties about the scope of learning. The CDIO approach addresses the needs of students, faculty and industry
by collecting and formalizing the knowledge, skills and attributes that student’s desire and that industry leaders expect
graduating engineers to have.

Practice : Learning by Doing

Students have to demonstrate their knowledge acquired and skill developed on learning a course through the following
individual and/or combined learning attributes
1. Practical Sessions
2. MOOCs
3. Projects
 Design Projects
 Investigatory projects
 Field Projects
 Analytics projects
4. Industrial Training
5. Field Exposure / Site Visits / Industrial Visits / Educational Visits
6. Internship
7. Research Paper Writing & Publication
