Abstract:

An educational outcome is what a student should be able to do upon successful completion of an academic program. This study aims to assess the attainment level of 13 student outcomes for Bachelor of Science in Hospitality Management students specializing in Cruise Line Operations in Culinary Arts (BSIHM-CLOCA). This study used a descriptive design to assess the student outcomes of BSIHM-CLOCA. The study participants were 72 students, or 100% of the 2 sections of BSIHM-CLOCA, who began the program in 2018 and graduated in 2022. They were assessed in all professional courses offered each semester from the first year to the fourth year of the program. The study used percentages and ranking to assess the student outcomes of BSIHM CLOCA graduates. A 75% performance target was set for all performance indicators. Based on the findings, all students met and exceeded the 75% performance target for each performance indicator across all 13 student outcomes. This indicates that students can easily adapt to the program. An action plan was proposed to improve student outcomes in culinary arts.
