Abstract : Purpose– The research presented in this paper investigates the role of the learning outcomes in developing successful employability attributes among graduates. For evaluating the impact of learning outcomes on employability from management graduates’ perspectives, Universities are considered as a prominent stakeholder.  Design/Methodology– This research is descriptive in nature, the data collected from 100 graduates of selected Universities of Haryana. Graduates of selected Universities contributed their opinion regarding impact of learning outcome on employability. To achieve the objective, hypotheses were designed and analysed using the SPSS and Partial least square structure modelling.  Findings– The Structural analysis identified learning outcomes as a significant factor in enhancing employability of management graduates. The reliability of all associated constructs is more than 0.9.  Originality/Value– To improve the students' employability, administration of higher education institutes (HEI) of Haryana might implement learning outcomes by following the useful recommendations from this research.

Keywords : Learning Outcomes, Employability, Partial Least Square Structure Modelling, Statistical Package for the Social Science.
