College of Engi neering organized an insightful technical session on "OBE Essentials for F aculty" on 22nd June 2026 at 10:00 AM in the Multi-Purpose Hall. The sessi on was delivered by Mr. Vittal Bhat M.\, Assistant Professor\, Department of Electronics and Communication Engineering\, who served as the resource person for the inaugural day of the program. The objective of the session was to familiarize faculty members with the fundamental concepts and imple mentation strategies of Outcome-Based Education (OBE)\, which forms the co rnerstone of contemporary engineering education. The resource person provi ded a comprehensive overview of OBE principles\, emphasizing the formulati on of Program Educational Objectives (PEOs)\, Program Outcomes (POs)\, Cou rse Outcomes (COs)\, and their effective mapping to ensure measurable stud ent learning. The session also highlighted the importance of constructive alignment between curriculum design\, teaching methodologies\, learning ac tivities\, and assessment practices to achieve desired educational outcome s. Participants were introduced to best practices in preparing course plan s\, designing competency-based assessments\, evaluating attainment levels\ , and utilizing continuous improvement mechanisms to enhance academic qual ity. Real-life examples and practical demonstrations enabled faculty membe rs to understand the effective implementation of OBE within their respecti ve departments and encouraged them to adopt learner-centric and outcome-or iented teaching practices. The interactive discussions and question-and-an swer session provided an excellent opportunity for participants to clarify their understanding of accreditation requirements and the role of faculty in maintaining academic standards. Faculty members actively engaged in th e deliberations\, sharing their experiences and exploring innovative appro aches to improve curriculum delivery and assessment. Overall\, the session served as a strong foundation for the subsequent activities of IMPACT 26\ , equipping faculty members with essential knowledge and practical skills to implement Outcome-Based Education effectively\, thereby strengthening t he institution's commitment to quality assurance\, academic excellence\, a nd continuous improvement in engineering education.\n\nBldg: PACE Campus\, P.A College of Engineering\, Mangaluru\, Karnataka\, India LOCATION:Bldg: PACE Campus\, P.A College of Engineering\, Mangaluru\, Karna taka\, India ORGANIZER:mdzakir87@gmail.com SEQUENCE:6 SUMMARY:Five-Day Faculty Enablement Program – IMPACT 26 URL;VALUE=URI:https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/570767 X-ALT-DESC:Description: <br /><p><img src="https://events.vtools.ieee.org/v tools_ui/media/display/131a44d5-62ad-4551-92e1-8bc3240a8419" alt="" width= "672" height="672"></p>\n<p>As part of the&nbsp\;<strong data-start="26" d ata-end="147">Five-Day Faculty Enablement Program &ndash\; IMPACT 26 (Inno vative Methods in Pedagogy\, Assessment\, Competency and Teaching)</strong >\, the <strong data-start="153" data-end="195">Internal Quality Assurance Cell (IQAC)</strong> of <strong data-start="199" data-end="230">P.A.
