Assessment at the Darla Moore School of Business

Our assessment mission is to ensure that student learning is achieved in all Moore School degree programs and major fields of study. Our two primary goals are to develop effective and efficient processes for ensuring student learning goals are met and to utilize assessment results to continually innovate our programs. Assessment activities assist faculty in improving programs and courses and help the business school demonstrate accountability.

Because each academic program at the Moore School has distinct student populations serving the demands of various employer groups, unique assessment plans are developed for each program. Each program has specific learning goals and each goal is measurable. Measures are taken to evaluate student learning, and feedback loops are used to ensure program improvements are made.

 

The overall goal of the undergraduate program at the Darla Moore School of Business is to produce students with the capacity to compete and be productive in today’s complex business environment.
