The Program Mission statement is
a concise statement of the general
values and principles, which guide
the curriculum.
Components of a Program Mission
Statement1) Primary functions or activities of the program –
most important functions, operations, outcomes,
and/or offerings of the program
2) Purpose of the program – primary reasons why
you perform your major activities or operations
3) Stakeholders – groups or individuals that
participate in the program and those that will
benefit from the program

Mission Statement
The Mission of the Biology B.S. degree program is
to prepare students for employment in various biology-
related areas and/or for the pursuit of advanced degrees in
biology or health-related professional schools by
educating them in the fundamental concepts,
knowledge and laboratory/field techniques and skills of
the life sciences.
“The mission of (name of program) is to
(your primary purpose) by providing (your
primary functions or activities) to (your
stakeholders).” (Additional clarifying
statements)

The FrameworkProgram Outcomes
Sample POs (For BS Civil Engineering)

The FrameworkSample Performance Indicators (For BS Civil Engineering)
Performance Indicators are specific, measurable statements
identifying the performance(s) required to meet the outcome;
confirmable through evidence.
The FrameworkProgram Assessment and Evaluation (For BS Civil Engineering)
Program Assessment refers to one or more processes that identify, collect, and prepare data to
evaluate the attainment of Program Outcomes and Program Educational Objectives.
In the case of Program Outcomes Assessment, the defined Performance Indicators shall be connected
to Key Courses (usually the Demonstrating or “D” courses in the Curriculum map), and an appropriate
Assessment Methods (AM) may be applied. These methods may be direct or indirect depending on
whether the demonstration of learning was measured by actual observation and authentic work of the
student or through gathered opinions from the student or his peers.
The FrameworkProgram Assessment and Evaluation (For BS Civil Engineering)
Program Evaluation pertains to one or more processes for interpreting the data and evidence
accumulated from the assessment. Evaluation determines the extent at which the Program
Outcomes and the Program Educational Objectives are achieved by comparing actual achievement
versus set targets and standards. Evaluation results in decisions and actions regarding the
continuous improvement of the program.
Other Methods of Program Assessment and Evaluation may be found in the CHED Implementation Handbook for
Outcomes-Based Education (OBE) and Institutional Sustainability Assessment (ISA).

The Framework
Continuous Quality Improvement
There must be a documented process for the assessment
and evaluation of program educational objectives and
program outcomes. The comparison of achieved
performance indicators with declared targets or standards
of performance should serve as basis for the priority
projects or programs for improving the weak performance
indicators. Such projects and programs shall be
documented as well as the results of its implementation.
This regular cycle of documentation of projects, programs
for remediation and their successful implementation shall
serve as the evidence for Continuous Quality Improvement
(CQI).

USTP Institutional Graduate Attributes
Note: These attributes are adopted from California State University – East
Bay.
Thinking and Reasoning
A graduate of USTP will be able to think critically
and creatively; and apply analytical and
quantitative reasoning to address complex
challenges and everyday problems.
Success in all disciplines requires creativity and skills in inquiry and
analysis that expand the understanding of the world and generate
solutions to professional, personal, and civic problems. USTP graduates
must be competent in identifying problems, accessing information,
differentiating and evaluating theories and ideas, analyzing data, making
reasoned decisions, and transforming ideas or solutions into new forms.
Thus, critical thinking practices - - creative, analytical, and quantitative - -
act synergistically to form the foundation for all of the other learning
outcomes or attributes.
Who is an excellent USTP graduate? What
quality attributes does he/she possess?
Communication
A graduate of USTP will be able to communicate
ideas, perspectives, and values clearly and
persuasively while listening openly to others.
Developing strong oral, written, and creative communication
skills is an important learning outcome for USTP graduates
because these skills are fundamental to active participation in a
democratic society and to achievement in professional life after
graduation. Communication implies an exchange between two or
more people, so communication is about expressing one’s own
ideas, perspectives, and values as well as understanding the ideas,
perspectives, and values of others.
Who is an excellent USTP graduate? What
quality attributes does he/she possess?
Diversity
A graduate of USTP will be able to apply
knowledge of diversity and multicultural
competencies to promote equity and social justice
in the community.
USTP students come from and return to an increasingly diverse society;
therefore, students need the knowledge, skills and dispositions to
successfully contribute to the creation and maintenance of inclusive and
just communities. USTP graduates should be able to recognize and
understand the rich and complex ways that group and individual
differences and interactions impact self and society. They will develop the
capacity to interact openly and respectfully with individuals across the full
range of human diversity including race, ethnicity, religion, gender, sexual
orientation, age and ability.
Who is an excellent USTP graduate? What
quality attributes does he/she possess?
Collaboration
A graduate of USTP will be able to work
collaboratively and respectfully as members and
leaders of diverse teams and communities.
Working with others is an essential component of USTP
experience. Students work as teams on class assignments,
on service learning projects, in student organizations, in
campus service departments and elsewhere on campus.
Collaborating with others, working in teams comprised of
diverse members, and assuming leadership roles are
essential in the workplaces and communities, so it is critical
that USTP graduates master these skills.
Who is an excellent USTP graduate? What
quality attributes does he/she possess?
Sustainability
A graduate of USTP will be able to act responsibly
and sustainably at local, national, and global
levels.
Possessing the knowledge, abilities and dispositions that
enable USTP graduates to act responsibly and sustainably in
their personal and professional life is imperative. Through
ethical behavior based on an understanding of how individual
choices and actions affect society, USTP graduates can help
build a sustainable future that ensures environmental
integrity, economic vitality, and a just society for present and
future generations.
Who is an excellent USTP graduate? What
quality attributes does he/she possess?
Specialized Discipline
A graduate of USTP will be able to demonstrate
expertise and integration of ideas, methods, theory
and practice in a specialized discipline of study.
A central element of USTP experience is the opportunity to gain a depth
of knowledge in a chosen field of study. Expertise in a specialized
discipline affords USTP graduates the opportunity to master the
terminology, theory, methods, tools and applications of a particular
subject area, preparing graduates to contribute to the development of
new knowledge and applications that address complex issues in society
and in one’s chosen profession. Disciplinary knowledge – integrated with
a broad understanding of the arts, sciences, and technology – contributes
to critical and creative approaches to solving the problems confronting
the world today and in the future.
