CoTM PROGRAM EDUCATIONAL OBJECTIVES (PEOs)
The Program Educational Objectives (PEOs) of the CoTM program define the
broad professional and career achievements expected of graduates within three
to five years after completion of the program. They were developed through a
systematic four-stage process involving academic staff input, internal
selection workshops, external validation with industry experts, and formal
approval by the Departmental Council. Each PEO is aligned with the mission of
both the CoTM program and Debre Berhan University, ensuring relevance to
institutional goals and industry needs.
