Appendix 2

Note: The PEOs, PLOs and Graduate Attributes defined above are examples/samples for an
under graduate programme in Science education. On the basis of experience, study, requirements
and feedback from various stake holders, Institutions/ departments can define /rewrite PEOs/
PLO/CLOs/GAs. Further, on similar grounds institutions/departments can write PEOs/
PLO/CLOs/GAs for other programmes, such as Arts/Commerce etc.

Sample computation of Attainment of PLOs for Under Graduate Programme-Bachelor
of Science. (B.Sc.)

Name of the Programme: B.Sc. (Chemistry)

1. List the courses of the programme (Sem I to VI) contributing to each PLO

2. Write CLOs of each course and map with PLOs.
Here the example of course Physical Chemistry is taken

CLOs of the said course are mapped with PLO1 of the programme. Following is the Sample
Mapping of Course outcomes of the said course with PLO1 of the programme.

Course Code -

Course Title: Physical Chemistry (Sem III)

The co-relation between Course Learning Outcomes with the Program Learning Outcomes can
be defined by three levels using letter grade such as H, M, L. Meaning of it is as

L (Low) : indicates range of contribution of CLO with respective PLO is between 1 to 30%.

M (Medium) : indicates range of contribution of CLO with respective PLO is between 31-70%
H (High) : indicates range of contribution of CLO with respective PLO is between 71-100%.
On the similar basis, mapping of courses of all years/semesters is done with PLOs and
correlation is defined in terms of letter grades.

3. Computation of relative weightage and percentage of contribution of each course in
attainment of respective PLOs.
The concept of Six –Sigma is used for calculating weighted percentage of contribution of each
course in attainment of respective PLOs. The tool used for the same is called as Six Sigma Tool
– Cause and Effect Matrix. As per Six- Sigma Concept, the weightage of H, M and L is 9, 3 and
1 respectively. Sample Calculations shown below:

between course outcomes of the course “physical Chemistry” (number of H, M and L and its
