Outcme Based Education (OBE) is an education philosophy that focuses on the graduate outcomes after completing
an academic programme. It also focuses on empirical measurement on students’ performance. It is known as a
method of curriculum design and teaching that focuses on what students can actually do after they are taught. It does
not specify or require any particular style of teaching or learning. It is a student centered approach that focuses on
student’s learning. It starts with a clear picture of what you want the students to learn, why do you want them to learn,
how can you best make students learn it and how will you know what they have learnt. Thus, OBE involves the
restructuring of curriculum and assessment that reflects achievement of high learning order and mastery learning.
“a comprehensive approach to organizing and operating an education system that is focused in and defined by the successful demonstrations of learning sought from each student”.
