Consistency of the Program Educational Objectives with the Mission of the InstitutionThe Computer Engineering PEOs are closely linked to, and consistent with, the KFUPM and CCSE missions. For instance, KFUPM and CCSE missions are directly served by the first and second COE PEOs, while the third PEO directly serves the above two mission statements. Specifically, the PEO 1 supports the expected leadership and global competitiveness roles of COE graduates' in the development of the Kingdom in the field of Computer Engineering. PEO 2 ensures the qualities for self-development and professional growth and addresses responsibilities and ethical values. PEO 3 describes how the broad knowledge, skills, and practices acquired during the course of study serve as the basis for quality research during graduate studies. Therefore, these three program educational objectives contribute indirectly to the accomplishment of the university mission statement. The COE PEOs are aligned with the department’s mission. PEO 1 provides the first step towards a career of achievement and service. The needed background of knowledge and skills are acquired to achieve PEO 1. Students acquire quality education through several avenues, including knowledge, skills and values as reflected in PEO 1 and 2. The professional and ethical issues are also preserved in PEO 2. The COE program provides enough depth, breadth and elective courses that are needed at graduate schools, which contribute to PEO 3.
The program constituents are those who must be satisfied with the performance of the COE program. The significant groups of constituencies of the COE program are:
To support the program, the COE has formed the Industrial Advisory Committee (IAC). The committee includes professionals in the field of Computer Engineering from industry, government and academia. The IAC participated effectively in the refinement and assessment processes of the PEOs. The committee members meet once a year with the department and the assessment committee chairmen to review program developments, and to participate in the assessment and evaluation of the program. IAC is chaired by the department chairman and includes six members from the industry and four COE faculty members; as detailed in Table 2.4-1. Table 2.4 9 . Industry Advisory Committee Membership
