What is a program outcome?
A program outcome is a statement (or collective set of statements) that specifies what a student will know, understand, and /or be able to do upon successful completion of a UMUC degree program. The statement(s) may also be known as the learning outcomes for a degree program. At UMUC, each degree program has identified specific program outcomes that are aligned with the overarching core learning areas (CLAs). The specific program outcomes represent the student learning outcomes for each program. The specific program outcomes are identified in each Program Assessment Plan and can be downloaded at http://umuc.edu/outcomes/plans.
