PROGRAM EDUCATIONAL OBJECTIVES

Program Educational Objectives (PEOs) are broad statements that describe the career and
professional accomplishments that the program is preparing graduates to achieve. They must be

continuously work with stakeholders (local employers, industry and RD advisors, and the alumni) to
review the PEOs and update them periodically. The number of PEOs should be manageable and
small in number, say 4+1, and should be achievable by the program.

Apply state of the art engineering design methods and computational tools to design
PEO1. mechanical systems.
Develop schematic and mathematical models to analyze physical systems under
PEO2. different environments.

PEO3. Design and simulate complex mechanical components and systems.
