Objectives: In order to meet the aforementioned major objectives, the QEP has selected a primary set of eleven learning outcomes to be the focus of the plan. Each initiative of the plan (and its corresponding components) is designed to influence and improve a particular subset of these learning outcomes. The QEP will be assessed on an ongoing basis through a variety of direct and indirect instruments created to measure these outcomes. Specific goals for improvement in various learning outcomes have been established. The QEP is supervised by the QEP Council, which reports to the Provost and the Academic Affairs Council.
