Abstract: |
Pakistan is a full signatory of the Washington Accord that facilitates mobility of engineering graduates and professionals at the international level. By introducing Outcome Based Education (OBE) system in our universities, engineers from Pakistan would be evaluated at the same criteria as others in order to get new jobs and admissions abroad.. |
What is the unmet need in society that your idea will fulfill ? |
Engineers from Pakistan have to take multiple tests in order to qualify for jobs and higher education in foreign countries. Catalyst would bridge this gap by introducing the Object Based Education System resulting in Pakistani engineering degree programs being accredited internationally. |
Who needs it ? How many would benefit ? |
Our primary goal is to develop Catalyst for Foundation University Rawalpindi Campus in order to assist their OBE related tasks for Department of Engineering and IT. After a successful implementation, a generic version of this product would be developed for other engineering universities of Pakistan. |
How will the solution works |
Catalyst would cater all the important requirements of academic students and faculty namely teacher, program manager, course advisor and head of department. As far as the implementation of Catalyst is concerned, courses of each program would have CLOs mapped to the PLOs. All the questions in exams and class activities would be linked to at least one CLO of that course. By the end of each semester , both GPA and OBE transcripts would be generated. |
Who are your competitors ? How is your solution different |
Existing solution related to Catalyst are few in Pakistan as few universities are following the workflow of OBE however Q-OBE is our only competitor as it is internationally recognized and is used by major universities in Pakistan. |
