On the selection of culminating courses for outcome-based education evaluation at engineering education

In many engineering programmes in Malaysia, the tendency is to compute the Programme Outcomes (POs) attainment from first until last semesters for every student and each course. The average PO is then computed at the end of the semester/programme for each student/cohort. Weightages at the course and...
