Software Engineering is the discipline of creating high-quality software in a systematic, controlled and efficient manner, and maintaining it at the optimal costs. It requires an application of the concepts, techniques, and methods of engineering to the development of software systems. A software engineering (SE) program should concentrate on development of professionals who have an expertise level knowledge of software development principles, theory, practice, and process.
In general, engineering concentrated on application of things and concepts which is known already to create products, while science is more theoretical. According to Parnas, the goal of Computer Science is to learn and to expand the science. On the other hand SE aims to use the science and technology knowledge which is available already to create new and advanced products and tools for use.
Definition Software Engineering is a discipline concerned with the development of software systems by applying engineering principles with the goal of developing cost-effective quality systems. IEEE defines software engineering in [IEEE-93] as
Vision Software engineering is the discipline of creating high-quality software in a systematic, controlled and efficient manner, and maintaining it it at the optimal costs. It requires an application of the concepts, techniques, and methods of engineering to the development of software systems. A software engineering (SE) program should concentrate on the preparation of professionals who have an expertise level knowledge of software development principles, theory, practice, and process. Therefore we define the vision of our curriculum as follows: The SE education will focus training students who have abilities to harmonize theory with practice, with problem solving abilities and skills. To do so it will concentrate on the preparation them to apply competently engineering principles, processes and practices to software components and systems, and their maintenance. Besides students’ professional growth the program will also focus on the development of their personal and interpersonal skills. It will help students to enhance their ability in oral and written communication, and their adaptability to group-work environments. The programme will inculcate among students a strong sense of civic, professional and ethical responsibility. The programme will strive to develop in the professionals a capacity for innovation and a passion for life- long learning.
SE curricula thus must reflect the aim to satisfy professional demands of the industry and academia. The graduates will be able to answer the challenges offered by the modern world.
Knowledge domain of SE curriculum
ABET Engineering Criteria 2000 notes: The curriculum must provide both breadth and depth across the range of engineering and computer science topics implied by the title and objective of the programme. The programme must demonstrate that graduates have: the ability to analyze, design, verify, validate, implement, apply, and maintain software systems; the ability to appropriately apply discrete mathematics, probability and statistics, and relevant topics in computer and management sciences to complex software systems.
The following major areas of relevant pedagogy have been identified to be appropriate for design of the software engineering curriculum: 1. Computing Foundation (CS/SE/CE) 2. Software Engineering (SE Major) 3. Software Engineering Application Domain 4. Supporting Areas (Mathematics and Natural Sciences) 5. General Education (Management, Humanities, Social Sciences)
The curriculum followed the concept that good curriculum should focus on building a solid foundation in the early stages of learning. It should gradually introduce and strengthen the core professional competencies and desired skill-sets. Software engineering concepts should be taken up as early as the start of 2nd year. The main technical SE content should be covered during the third and forth years. Lab component should inculcate among students practical approach and practice of problem solving. SE practices must be accompanied all along the education program. The practice of software engineering is often in the context of non-software application domains. The graduates, therefore, should be provided an opportunity of reasonably broad exposure of at least one application area in the senior years. It will help them learn and demonstrate the application of software engineering practices. A capstone design project should provide the opportunity to bring together all the knowledge gained in a wide variety of courses to solve realistic problems in a team-based environment.
Duration of Programmes Following to the Higher Education Law in Mongolia, the team defined a credit hour as 15 or 16 lecturing hours in a course offered in a semester. Also 2 to 3 lab hours shall be treated as one credit hour for a course. In normal circumstances a semester comprises 15 (16 for some schools) teaching weeks followed by the final examination. The BS Software Engineering Degree would be a 4-year program consisting of 8 semesters.
Admission Criteria The eligibility criteria for Software Engineering admission was agreed to be intermediate with mathematics and English language qualifications, however, universities may define their own admission criteria.
Curriculum Objective The objective of the curriculum is to prepare students for professional careers and graduate studies with a balance between computing theory and practical application of software engineering concepts, methodology and tools in the modern software development environments. Graduates of such programmes will be able to function as proficient software developers and effective team members. They will have grounding in communication, mathematics and science, and the cultural, historical, and social issues that influence and effect or relate to software development. They will have knowledge of and experience with software product engineering and engineering management and an understating of professional issues and practices. Graduates will be able to understand and assess their own software engineering capabilities and performance. The curriculum is designed to ensure breadth across allied disciplines and supporting subjects; and depth in most areas of software engineering body of knowledge. Various components have been included in the curriculum to ensure that the graduates will:
Curriculum Model
The curriculum is designed to systematically achieve the objectives set above for the programme. It has been structured to suit the needs of the students, the demands of the market, and the trends of the industry. During the first two years of the programme the students will be given an underpinning into computer science with special emphasis on software engineering — concepts, processes, and practices. The students will be exposed to the discipline in a systematic, gradual and sure way. Students will also be imparted the skills and techniques which derive essence from basic sciences like mathematics and physics. These areas will be taken care of in the supporting courses which have been allocated reasonably sufficient space. Students’ personal traits and personality polishing will be cared for by the general education courses including communication and writing skills. A host of slots for elective courses have also been proposed to give to the students an opportunity to move towards their areas of interest.
During the senior years the students will be given exposure to the more specialized aspects of the discipline. They will also be given training in at least one application domain which will help institutions to prepare human resource well suited to the needs of different segments of the job market. In order to inculcate among them a scientific attitude they will go through a substantial lab work, which will prepare them for the industry and for further research oriented studies. The final year design project will mark the crystallisation and culmination of the students’ four-year learning process.
