Justification for CO-PO mapping
Mapping

Justification
|
Affinity level
|
CO1-PO1
|
CO1 is related to understand the tools and logics of the Quantum information and computations which improvise the understanding level of students. Thus the affinity level is 3.
|
3
|
CO1-PO2
|
Since PO2 is related to problem analysis and CO1 gives concepts in solving problems. Thus the affinity is given as 2.
|
2
|
CO2-PO1
|
CO2 is related to developing the circuits . Hence the affinity level is 3.
|
3
|
CO2-PO2
|
As CO2 is also related to developing circuits and PO2 is also related to developing analytical skills, the affinity level between them is 3.
|
3
|
CO3-PO1
|
Since PO1 is related to acquiring knowledge in information fundamentals. CO3 has maximum affinity 3 when mapped with PO1.
|
3
|
CO3-PO2
|
CO3 is related to problem solving skills. Since PO2 is related to improving analytical skills, CO3 has maximum affinity to PO2 and hence given an affinity level of 3.
|
3
|
CO1-PSO1
|
PSO1 is related demonstrate proficiency in mathematics and the mathematical concepts needed for a proper understanding of physics. Hence the affinity level is 3.
|
3
|
CO1-PSO2
|
PSO2 is related to apply basic physics knowledge to analyze a variety of physical phenomena and related subjects. Hence the affinity level is 3.
|
3
|
CO2-PSO1
|
CO2 is related to recognize the differences among competing quantum logical theories, which map completely with PSO1. So the affinity level is 3.
|
3
|
CO2-PSO2
|
Since PSO2 is related to improving knowledge which is essential to understand quantum information logics. Hence the affinity level between CO2 and PSO2 is 3 instead of 2 or 1.
|
3
|
CO3-PSO1
|
Since CO3 is related to analyze and solve problems related to computing and information. CO3-PSO1 mapping has the affinity level 3.
|
3
|
CO3-PSO2
|
The affinity level between CO3 and PSO2 is 3 since CO3 deals with solve which eventually improves the analytical skills of students.
