Abstract
Outcome based education (OBE) is now inevitable and is a directive for education as per standards stated by National board of accreditation (NBA). Course outcomes (CO) and Program outcomes (PO) are two crucial aspects pertaining towards effective OBE incorporation. To achieve this, mapping of course outcomes with program outcomes is a major concern. As per accreditation guidelines of NBA direct and indirect tools must be deployed for calculating the attainment of Program Outcomes. Certain CO-PO mapping strategies must also be defined. This paper presents an empirical case study of the subject "Operating Systems and Administration" in the third Semester of Computer engineering curricula of Savitiri bai Phule Pune University (SPPU), India. The Paper gives a threefold contribution: - a) proposes an empirical algorithm to estimate the correlation between the CO and PO. b) Three direct schemes of CO attainment are designed along with two indirect schemes c) Final attainment estimation is done by integrating the above proposed schemes.
