Terminal Course Objectives
DeVry University course content is constructed from curriculum guides developed for each course
that are in alignment with specific Terminal Course Objectives. The Terminal Course Objectives
(TCOs) define the learning objectives that the student will be required to comprehend and
demonstrate by course completion. The TCOs that will be covered in detail each week can be found
in the Objectives section for that particular week. Whenever possible, a reference will be made from a
particular assignment or discussion back to the TCO that it emphasizes.
