A complete report on each academic department's performance in the six Institute Student Learning Outcomes is available from your department head or by request from the Office of Institutional Research, Planning, and Assessment. The evaluation results are used by each department to document achievement of student learning for accreditation purposes.

A brief history of the RHIT Student Learning Outcomes Assessment Process
The Institute Student Learning outcomes are organized into three domains: Professional Skills, World Citizenship and Technical Knowledge. Technical Knowledge is the core of the Rose-Hulman education. Outcomes in this domain are determined by each academic department for discipline-appropriate knowledge, problem definition and solving skills, and analysis and synthesis skills.

Rose-Hulman's RosE-Portfolio work received the 2007 Council for Higher Education Accreditation (CHEA) Award and is cited on the National Institute for Learning Outcomes Assessment's  Award-Winning Campuses website among other colleges and universities that are chosen by institutions and commissions for displaying excellent programs in learning outcomes and assessment.
