Academic self-assessment is the final task in the studies where students self-assess their professional development through the lens of the programme’s intended learning outcomes in knowledge and understanding, intellectual skills, practical skills and transferrable skills. By bringing concrete evidences from their studies, students demonstrate how they have developed in each intended learning outcome of the programme. This task complements the earlier assessment of the intended learning outcomes in the courses, projects, practical training, and the bachelor’s thesis, and thus contributes to quality assurance in the assessment of the intended learning outcomes.
