Programme Outcomes (PO) define the graduate profile of an engineering technology graduate at the time of graduation. These outcomes have been recommended by the Institution of Engineers, Sri Lanka (IESL) conforming to Sydney Accord (SA) accreditation requirements.
Bachelor of Engineering Technology Honours Degree Programmes
The Department of Civil and Environmental Technology (DCET) is pleased to announce the accreditation status of two specialisations under the Bachelor of Engineering Technology Honours degree programme:
Energy and Environmental Technology (EET)
The BET Honours in Energy and Environmental Technology degree programme conducted by the DCET received “Full Accreditation” (intake years from 2017 to 2027) from the Institution of Engineers Sri Lanka (IESL) based on the Sydney Accord graduate attributes defined by the International Engineering Alliance (IEA).
Construction and Building Services Technology (CBST)
The BET Honours in Construction and Building Services Technology degree programme conducted by the DCET received “Conditional Accreditation” (intake years from 2017 to 2024) from the Institution of Engineers Sri Lanka (IESL) based on the Sydney Accord graduate attributes defined by the International Engineering Alliance (IEA).
Note: The accreditation by IESL under the Sydney Accord framework ensures that our graduates meet internationally recognized standards in engineering technology education and are equipped with the competencies required for professional practice in their respective fields.
PLO 1: Engineering Knowledge: Apply knowledge of mathematics, natural science and engineering fundamentals to defined and applied engineering procedures, processes, systems or methodologies.
PLO 2: Problem Analysis: Identify, formulate, research literature and analyze broadly defined engineering problems reaching substantiated conclusions.
PLO 3: Design/Development of Solutions: Design solutions for broadly defined engineering technology problems and contribute to the design of systems, components or processes to meet specified needs, including conflicting constraints.
PLO 4: Investigations: Conduct investigations of broadly defined engineering problems using established methods
PLO 5: Modern Tool Usage: Select and apply appropriate techniques, resources, and modern engineering and IT tools to broadly defined engineering problems.
PLO 6: The Engineer and Society: Demonstrate understanding of the societal, health, safety, legal, cultural and environmental issues related to engineering technology solutions.
PLO 7: Environment and Sustainability: Evaluate the sustainability and impact of engineering technology work in societal and environmental contexts.
