| Summary: | Abstract—Outcome Based Education (OBE)
has become the standard of practice in Higher
Education Institutions especially those that offer
programs in engineering. This paper introduces a
method to measure students’ performance in
respect to OBE concept. The flow of measurement
is taken from students’ progress marks and also
final exam. The marks are then converted whether
they meet the course outcome set by instructor.
After getting the course outcome score,
contribution of each course to program outcome
can be measured progressively until students
complete their 4 year program. In getting the score
Program Outcome, the instructor would plan
earlier on the assessment question specification to
program outcome. The method is found to be very
practical to be implemented for any instructor to
measure the course outcome and program
outcome. In addition, it would contribute to the
continuous quality improvement process as
specified by Washington Accord as well as
Engineering Accreditation Council, Malaysia.
