Abstract: In traditional education system the focus is on content based learning. There was a shift to outcome-based education
as a philosophy of teaching and learning in engineering education. But the, challenge of active student engagement could not
be resolved. This study evaluates student engagement and academic outcomes in traditional outcome-based education within
the engineering departments of Computer Science & Engineering, Artificial Intelligence & Machine Learning, Artificial
Intelligence & Data Science, Mechanical Engineering, Aeronautical Engineering and Civil Engineering. The goal is to
determine the necessity of implementing a Project-Based Learning (PBL) system in these disciplines. A comprehensive survey
assessed students’ learning experiences, engagement levels, and educational outcomes. The results will guide the development
of a customized PBL system aimed at improving educational effectiveness and student satisfaction in these evolving fields.

Keywords: Outcome-Based Education, Student Engagement, Academic Outcomes, Engineering Education, Project-Based
Learning (PBL), Learning Experience, Educational Effectiveness, Student Satisfaction
