Program Outcomes
Program outcomes are overarching skills that are emphasized and reinforced throughout several courses in a specific program; they are measurable statements that define what students should know or be able to do by the end of a certificate or degree at Clark College. After successful completion of this program, students will be able to:
- Articulate well-considered ideas and written claims to an academic audience, using effective rhetorical techniques, properly credited evidence, and a command of Standard English. (GE)
- Demonstrate interpersonal/human relations skills. (GE)
- Demonstrate and clearly explain an effective strategy to solve a quantitative problem. (GE)
- Design, operate, and troubleshoot automation processes and systems.
- Communicate with colleagues, supervisors, clients, using written and verbal technical and/or nontechnical language.
- Actively participate as an effective team member, completing prescribed project tasks and meeting project goals.
- Use computational skills to analyze physical parameters within automated processes and systems.
- Assimilate/interpret technical and nontechnical descriptions to form a solution.
- Collect data based on sensory input and system performance to analyze and interpret process capabilities.
- Operate, measure, and modify, software-driven industrial control systems
