Unit Learning Outcomes develop both Curtin’s Graduate Capabilities and Engineers Australia Stage 1 Competencies.

Course Learning Outcomes

Course Learning Outcomes (CLOs) describe the attributes of graduates – what they will be able to do and be. Curtin has uniquely developed CLOs for Engineering that synthesise criteria from the Curtin Graduate Capabilities, Engineers Australia Stage 1 Competencies and Board of Engineers Malaysia Programme Outcomes.

Curtin Graduate Capabilities

Curtin Graduate Capabilities (GCs) are the defining characteristics of all Curtin graduates. Curtin graduates acquire discipline knowledge and professional capabilities that enable them to transform lives and communities for the better.

EA Stage 1 Competencies

The Competencies and Elements of Competency represent the profession’s expression of the knowledge and skill base, engineering application abilities, and professional skills, values and attitudes that must be demonstrated at the point of entry to practice.

Unit Learning Outcomes

Unit Learning Outcomes (ULOs) are the building blocks of a course, aligning with CLOs and GCs. ULOs describe student achievement in every unit and are designed to interconnect. Unit assessments and learning and teaching activities align with ULOs.

Professional Engineering Competencies
