Intended Student Outcomes (ISO's)

The four Intended Student Outcomes of an education at Ozarks are:

ISO 1: Students will communicate effectively

ISO 2: Students will think critically

ISO 3: Students will have knowledge of human culture

ISO 4: Students will be aware of their responsibilities to themselves, to humanity, to their planet and to their creator

University of the Ozarks helps you meet these ISOs by through objectives in the general education curriculum, a major curriculum, and co-curricular activities. We use a variety of instruments annually to collect information relevant to achievement of these ISOs, including a national, standardized objective test; a national survey; and specific assignments embedded in the seven core courses.
