COENG Seal

The seal symbolizes the goal and objectives of the College of Engineering. The book being the core represents the values and knowledge of learning in engineering education. The flame serves as light to the path of endeavor, represented by the white shadow, of the four engineering programs from the year of its existence in 1983 to present. The bridge and buildings represent the BS in Civil Engineering, the transmission and sub-station lines represent the BS in Electrical Engineering, the parabolic dish represents the BS in Electronics and Communications Engineering and the computer set represents the Computer Engineering. The aqua blue part symbolizes SSU as the nucleus of learning in engineering fields in Samar Province, represented by green colored map. Engineer being the master of the laws of nature defines aqua blue, green and white color parts of the seal as water, land and air, respectively. The laurel leaves represent the college academic performance and quest for excellence. The yellow rays stand for hope and challenge for a more competitive and better college locally and globally. The red wheel symbolizes the college, with the gears that represent a continuous quest for excellence in engineering education.

COENG OBE FRAMEWORK

Assessment and Evaluation Plan of the Program Educational Objectives (PEOs)

The College of Engineering administers PEOs assessment instruments for all its Engineering program offerings on a four-year cycle. The program uses the university assessment process to plan, identify, assess, analyze, and make programmatic improvements based on their assessment data. The Engineering programs’ assessment is an ongoing process and seeks input from all stakeholders to continuously make program improvements. At the end of every assessment cycle, the Engineering assessment plan, findings, and continuous improvement plan are submitted to the Office of Quality Assurance and Office of the Vice-President for Academic Affairs for evaluation. The Vice-President for Academic Affairs, through the Office of Quality Assurance, reviews the workspace to see if the program outcomes are measurable and aligned with the university’s mission and vision as well as if College goals, targets, and benchmarks were met and attainable. This OBE framework is the assessment process that the Engineering programs use to examine program educational objectives and graduate outcomes.
