An expected learning outcome is a formal statement of the body of knowledge, practical skills and higher-order thinking skills that a student is expected to master by the time the degree is conferred. Mastery of learning outcomes can be shown by actions that are taken by the student that are both observable and measurable. Students can use these statements to gain a high-level understanding of the expectations of the faculty. This communication of expectations serves as an aid to prospective students in choosing an appropriate degree program to pursue. Students can also use these statements to ensure that they complete their mastery of the knowledge and skills during their studies. Professors can use these statements to improve the academic quality of their degree programs. This is done by collecting evidence of learning outcomes (student work) and comparing it against the ELOs to identify potential weaknesses in the curriculum. The university maintains the highest possible academic standards by engaging in a continuous cycle of expressing ELOs, evaluation of the evidence, and making any necessary changes to the curriculum. A student seeking a Ph.D. degree must pass a qualifying examination in metallurgical engineering. This examination is oral, followed by a written version, if necessary. Also required is a research proposal on a subject of the studentâ€™s choosing approved by a committee from the discipline of the proposal; the same committee then becomes part of the studentâ€™s supervisory committee. An individual program is planned by each candidate with the assistance and approval of the supervisory committee. A minimum of 67 total credit hours is required, including at least 33 hours in research and 34 hours in course work. Planned course work, transfer credits, and proposed research must be approved by the studentâ€™s supervisory committee. The student then defends the dissertation before the supervisory committee.
