University Learning Outcomes

University Learning Outcomes – ULO

In 2009-2010, EOU faculty developed a University Learning Outcomes framework adapted from the American Association of College and Universities’ LEAP essential learning outcomes.  The intention is to provide a systemic framework within which faculty can articulate the goals of EOU’s degree and general education programs, as well as define and map where essential learning outcomes occur throughout the curriculum.  Through this foundational framework, the EOU faculty commit to document and to verify what an EOU undergraduate knows and what they are able to do through transferring practical and intellectual skills to new contexts throughout their education and upon graduation.
