Program Educational Objectives



1. Apply knowledge of mathematics, science, engineering fundamentals and an

engineering specialisation to the solution of complex chemical engineering problems.2. Identify, formulate, research literature and analyse complex chemical engineering

problems reaching substantiated conclusions using first principles of mathematics,

natural sciences and engineering sciences.

3. Design solutions for complex chemical engineering problems and design systems,

components or processes that meet specified needs with appropriate consideration

for public health and safety, cultural, societal, and environmental considerations.

4. Investigate complex chemical engineering problems using research based

knowledge and research methods including design of experiments, analysis and

interpretation of data, and synthesis of information to provide valid conclusions.

5. Select and apply modern engineering and IT tools to evaluate complex chemical

engineering activities.6. Apply reasoning informed by contextual knowledge to assess societal, health, safety,

legal and cultural issues and the consequent responsibilities relevant to

professional engineering practice.

EAC

IHL

• International accreditation agreement for professional engineeringacademic degree between the bodies recognised for accreditation in

the signatory country

• Engineering Accreditation Council is the only

recognised accrediting body for engineering degreeprogram in Malaysia

• Delegated by BEM

• To get accredited, the IHL must show

that they have implement ALL therequirement imposed by EAC, including

the implementation of OUTCOME

BASED EDUCATION



Towards INTERNATIONAL RECOGNITION ofgraduates

In short:

Why the need for accreditation?

IF THE PROGRAM IS ACCREDITED i.e.

INTERNATIONALLY RECOGNISE, YOU CAN

SECURE JOBS ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD



NEXT ACCREDITATION VISIT

PLEASE BE READY TO BE INTERVIEWED.YOU MIGHT BE ONE OF THEM





In short

• It is a method of curriculum design and teaching that

focuses on what YOU CAN DO AFTER YOU ARE

TAUGHT

• It is a method to monitor your performance TODAY to

project your competency as Chemical Engineers

TOMORROW, with improvements done through CQI

It must have specified course outcome which isdesigned to address the PO and PEO

It is objective and outcome driven, where every

outcome can be assessed and evaluated

It is centred around the needs of the students and

the stakeholders

PO is measured at the point of exit (graduation)

PEO is measured after 3-5 years of graduation

IMPLEMENTATION OF OBE



Among the characteristics of COMPLEX PROBLEM No single specific answer

No prescribed process for arriving at the

solution

Not directly related to materials taught in

lectures

Requires some judgment/ assumptions, and

students need to make qualitative decisions withjustifications for their decisions

Possibly involved more than one area / discipline
