| Summary: | Continuous improvement is an ongoing effort
to improve products, services or processes. These
efforts can seek “incremental” improvement over time
or “breakthrough” improvement all at once. This paper
explores the assessment of exit surveys to assess the
graduate students of Faculty of Mechanical Engineering
(FKM), Universiti Malaysia Pahang. The exit survey
was covered the student’s impressions towards teaching
and learning, skills and knowledge related to Program
Outcomes (PO’s), student ratings for lecturer’s
contributions, student opinions towards academic
resources and overall graduate preparation by FKM.
The outcome of assessment processes and how it can be
facilitate to improve the mechanical engineering
program was also investigated. The survey was
conducted during last academic semester (first semester
of the year 2008/2009). It is observed that all program
outcomes have at least 70% student rating towards skills
and knowledge preparation related to the program
outcomes. This is confirmed outcome based education
strategies when the entire curriculum should mapping to
the program outcomes. Based on this survey,
approximately more that 76.8% of the respondents are
agreed that the mechanical engineering program are
suitable and recommended of study to community. |
