Overview
The College of Business strongly believes that a culture of outcomes assessment is best developed at the level at which students and faculty interact—at the department level. Thus, while there are general learning outcomes expected for all College of Business students regardless of their major, each department also has identified learning outcomes for its major(s). Further, since each department develops and implements curricula, it is appropriate for departments to also be responsible for implementing and documenting student learning. A college level outcomes assessment committee, with membership from each department, oversees and helps coordinate College assessment activities; this committee further acts to support departmental assessment activities and to facilitate and enable reporting the success of student learning to the College’s curriculum committee, faculty, students, and administration. The College of Business administration supports the departments’ and College’s endeavors to enhance student learning and to report learning outcomes.
