Abstract :
The research develops an evaluation system to estimate a university student´s department professional competences. In university the professional competences are generally proposed by a department that specifically describe the professional skills and targets their students will possess or achieve after graduation. Rather than using a score to represent a student´s learning, the developed system is designed to evaluate a student how they have learned the competences after taking the courses and exams in a department. So this paper focuses on introducing how to evaluate a student´s professional competences in a department through quantifying and building the relation among the course, assessment and competence. The feedbacks of this evaluation system help teachers not only understand a student´s competences but also inspect whether their course design and learning activities are conforming to the entire department development.
