University Student Learning Outcomes Assessment Committee

Announcement

As a committee, we have agreed to adapt and accommodate new ways of conducting assessment for the upcoming 2022-23 cycle. We recognize that some programs may conduct assessment as usual, while others may face substantial and ongoing challenges in collecting and analyzing assessment data under the current conditions. 

Please read the Memo on Student Learning Outcomes Assessment Activities Guidelines: Academic Year 2022-23

If you need any assistance or want to discuss plans for outcomes assessment, please contact Dr. Matt G. Mutchler, Director of Assessment in Academic Affairs, anytime at mmutchler@csudh.edu.
