What are Learning Outcomes?

Learning outcomes are specific educational goals that are related to the mastery of intellectual and practical skills. The Miami Dade College Learning Outcomes are learning goals that emphasize the lifelong skills needed to be successful in work and life and to participate in our society as a global citizen. Although the Learning Outcomes are traditionally associated with general education courses, they are fostered and developed across the entire educational and co-curricular activities associated with the students' major courses of study.

Purpose: Through the academic disciplines and co-curricular activities, General Education provides multiple, varied, and intentional learning experiences to facilitate the acquisition of fundamental knowledge and skills and the development of attitudes that foster effective citizenship and life-long learning.
