AI-Powered CO/PO Design

Upload the syllabus you were already given. Approve the draft in three minutes.

You are not being asked to author a new document. The syllabus exists and the university prescribed it. Udgam reads it and produces the course outcomes, the Bloom's mapping and the CO–PO matrix — for you to correct, not to write.

  • Under 5 minutes per course
  • Every draft cites its source
  • You hold every approval gate

Try it yourself

Pick a subject. Watch it draft.

This is the workflow in miniature. Note that every drafted outcome cites the syllabus line it came from — that is how you check in seconds whether a draft is generic or genuinely yours.

Pick a subject and watch what happens.

Syllabus you already have — B.Tech CSE · Semester 3

  • Unit 1 — Arrays, linked lists, stacks and queues. Representation and operations.
  • Unit 2 — Sorting and searching. Complexity analysis, best/average/worst case.
  • Unit 3 — Trees and graphs. Traversal, spanning trees, shortest path.
  • Unit 4 — Hashing, collision resolution, design of efficient structures.

Nothing drafted yet. Choose a subject above.

A demonstration using pre-written content. In the product this runs against your own uploaded syllabus, and nothing reaches an official record without your approval and your HOD’s.

Your part in it

You appear at the end, and only where judgement is needed.

The extraction, the level mapping, the drafting and the self-checking all happen before you see anything. What reaches you is a set of drafts, each sitting beside the syllabus line that produced it.
01

Upload what you already have

The university-prescribed syllabus, as PDF, DOCX or pasted text. Subject metadata takes about a minute. You are not authoring a new document.

02

Review the drafts

Course outcomes, the cognitive level of each, and a pre-filled outcome-to-programme matrix. Inline editing with a verb dropdown. Approve one at a time or approve all.

03

Send it for approval

Your head of department signs off before anything affects a calculation. Every change is versioned with an editor and a reason.

Target time for the whole loop: under five minutes per course. The demo above is the honest version of it — including the part where a draft cites its source so you can reject it in seconds.

Before anything is activated

Five checks run on every outcome.

These exist because attainment data that cannot be defended to a peer reviewer is worse than no data at all.

Bloom's verb alignment

The action verb has to match the level claimed. Mismatches are flagged, not silently accepted.

Measurability

A higher-level outcome cannot rest on a vague verb like 'understand' or 'appreciate'.

Scope

Not so broad it describes the whole programme, not so narrow it describes a single lecture.

Duplication

Flags any outcome substantially identical to another in the same programme.

HOD review gate

For new courses, or significantly changed outcomes, your head of department approves before activation.

Version history

Every change is logged with a timestamp, an editor and a reason. Nothing changes silently.

The CO–PO matrix

Pre-filled, not blank. You are correcting, not constructing.

The matrix is the single most tedious artefact in the whole exercise. It arrives populated with suggested weights, and you adjust the cells you disagree with.
Example — a Data Structures course
PO1 KnowledgePO2 AnalysisPO3 DesignPO4 InvestigationPO5 Tools
CO1 Apply sorting algorithms3212
CO2 Analyse structure efficiency2312
CO3 Evaluate algorithm complexity2323
CO4 Design optimal structures12323
CO5 Solve graph traversal problems2312
CO6 Implement tree operations22313

The workflow

  • AI generates suggested weights from the outcome text and the PO descriptions
  • You review and adjust the cells you disagree with
  • Your HOD approves before it affects any attainment calculation
  • Every version is retained, with who changed what and why

Inter-rater calibration

If a colleague in your department maps the same topic differently, the platform flags the discrepancy and asks your HOD to resolve it. This is the mechanism that stops two sections of the same course producing incomparable attainment numbers.

If you are affiliated to a state university

You are not being asked to overwrite a prescribed curriculum.

The most common reason OBE software fails at affiliated colleges is that it assumes the institution controls its own course outcomes. Most do not.
Layer 1

University outcomes

Prescribed by your affiliating university, imported from a library or entered once by your institution admin. These cannot be modified — only supplemented. They are what gets reported upward to the university.

Layer 2

Institution outcomes

Supplementary outcomes your department defines for the same course — local industry context, elective depth, laboratory or project components. These are what gets reported to NBA and NAAC.

Both layers contribute to attainment, are tracked separately, and are combined in the accreditation dashboard. Nothing you do at Layer 2 puts your university affiliation at risk.

The same principle, everywhere else

Four more things AI drafts and you approve.

What you provideWhat comes backWhat you do
A course outcome, a level and a topicFive to ten questions written at exactly that cognitive levelPick the ones that fit, edit the rest, discard what doesn't work
A course outcome, a level and an assessment typeA full rubric with four to six criteria and performance descriptorsAdjust descriptors, add or remove criteria, approve
An attainment gap and a root causeThree evidence-based corrective actions, drawn from what worked elsewhere on the platformChoose one, set a date, attach evidence when done
A finished assessmentA balance report showing the distribution across cognitive levelsRebalance if more than 70% of marks sit at the lowest two levels

AI eliminates burden; humans retain authority. AI is a first-draft engine. Authority remains human.
