abstract
- Outcome-Based Education (OBE) has been practised for over a century, as educationalists have highlighted the need to understand learners' characteristics during the learning process. This educational framework aims to ensure that learners possess the necessary attributes to become successful not only in their education but in their lives as well. Graduate attributes are pre-defined high-level skills students should acquire due to their learning and experiences while pursuing a degree. These attributes are indicators of a graduate's future capabilities and have a many-To-many relationship between the courses. The measure of these attributes is called attainment. Concrete assessment methods lay the groundwork for precise attainment to acquire one or more graduate attributes. This paper aims to provide a mathematical assessment formulation for attaining engineering graduate attributes based on course outcomes. The research also highlights the understanding of the outcome-based education concept in higher education institutions in India.
