Institutional & General Education Learning Outcomes

To ensure educational quality and curricular coherence, the University of Hawai‘i West O‘ahu has identified Institutional Learning Outcomes (ILOs) and General Education Learning Outcomes (GELOs) which all students will have achieved upon graduation from UH West O‘ahu. The ILOs and GELOs provide guidance to the degree and concentration outcomes which define the knowledge, skills and abilities of students earning a degree in a specific discipline. ILOs were adopted by the UH West O‘ahu Faculty Senate in Spring 2000 and most recently revised in Spring 2013; the GELOs were adopted by Faculty Senate in Spring 2013 and revised in Fall 2013. The Institutional Learning Outcomes address effective communication, cultural awareness, critical thinking, disciplinary knowledge, and community engagement; the General Education Learning Outcomes focus on written communication, oral communication, quantitative reasoning, Hawaiian-Pacific issues, global and multicultural perspectives, arts/ humanities/and literature social and natural science literacy, and contemporary ethical issues. Degree and concentration learning outcomes are listed in each Division’s chapter of this catalog.
