Institutional Learning Outcomes (ILOs)

Mission Statement

ÂÒÂ×ÊÓÆµ is a Christian university committed to the highest standards of academic excellence and Christian values, where students are strengthened for lives of purpose, service, and leadership.

Institutional Learning Outcomes (ILOs) represent the knowledge, skills and attitudes that all Pepperdine students are expected to acquire upon completion of their degree from ÂÒÂ×ÊÓÆµ. ILOs are designed to help guide individual departments and disciplines in the development of their program learning outcomes.

Institutional Learning Outcomes

The Institutional Learning Outcomes (ILOs) are formed by two components:

  1. Core commitments: Knowledge and scholarship, faith and heritage, and community and global understanding
  2. Institutional values: Purpose, service, and leadership

Each commitment is evaluated and implemented through the lens of the institutional values. All components are represented in both the learning environment and the student learning outcomes.

Student Learning Outcomes

Student Learning Outcomes (SLOs) are measurable expectations that are formed from the model of the Institutional Learning Outcomes (formed by core commitments from the Strategic Plan and institutional values of purpose, service, and leadership). Outcomes-based assessment allows the institution to measure the impact of their educational environment. The outcomes listed below will be measured at various points during the educational experience, at graduation, and post-graduation. 

A student who goes through disciplinary processes will be able to:

  • Engage in self-reflection to demonstrate increased self-awareness.
  • Understand the role faith plays in developing personal values and behaviors.
  • Appraise and enhance relationships with an increased understanding of how personal choices and behaviors impact others.
  • Build leadership skills in community living, including effectively communicating community standards/policies and consequences.
