3 epartment of Software Engineering 3. INTENE LEARNING OUTCOMES OF THE PROGRAMME Able to: A. Knowledge & Understanding A1. The system development lifecycle. A2. A wide range of principles and tools available to the software developer, such as software process methodologies, choice of algorithm, language, software libraries and user interface technique A3. The principles of object-oriented software construction A4. The software-development process, including requirements analysis, design, programming, testing and maintenance A5. The range of situations in which computer systems are used, the ways in which people interact with them A6. Professional issues to cover: social, ethical and legal aspects A7. Communication issues in large, complex software projects A8. The principles and techniques of a number of application areas informed by the research directions of the subject, such as software engineering, net-centric, and distributed systems Learning & Teaching Processes (to allow students to achieve intended learning outcomes) Acquisition (A1) is developed through lectures and tutorials and supported by regular coursework. In years 1 and 2, acquisition of (A2)-(A4) is developed through a combination of lectures / labs and supported by directed study of textbooks and journal articles (hard copy or electronic). For the 3 rd and 4 th years, acquisition of (A5)-(A8) is through lectures, seminars, and recently with e-learning method to give opportunity to students to be selflearners. Assessment (of intended learning outcomes) Testing of knowledge base is through a combination of unseen written examinations and assessed coursework. (A1) is assessed in this way. (A2 A8) are assessed in the form of lab work, essays, reports, assignments, single and/or group projects, and other set of assignments including e- learning assessment that includes answering MCQs and T/F questions at the end of each e- learning session. For the time being, such assessment is not used by the module instructor because the e-learning part is used as a supporting material to the module and a further development for this part of the project is under way.

4 epartment of Software Engineering Able to B1 B2 B3 B4 B5 B6 B7 B8 Model object-oriented software systems; B. Intellectual Skills Investigate and improve the specification of a software system esign and plan software solutions to problems using an object-oriented strategy Identify a range of solutions and critically evaluate and justify proposed design solutions Write and test programs using at least one object-oriented programming language Evaluate systems in terms of general quality attributes and possible trade-offs presented within the given problem Use and evaluate appropriate tools and techniques Reflect and reason concerning a given information handling problem or opportunity Learning & Teaching Processes Intellectual skills are developed through the teaching and learning program. Each course, whatever the format of the teaching, involves practice in applying concepts orally and in writing, analysis and interpretation of materials, and individual feedback sessions for learners on work produced. Workshops and practical exercises more usually support skill development curricula and open learning materials are used extensively to facilitate individually paced skill acquisition and development. Recently, the e-learning method is partly implemented in some modules such as Artificial Intelligence module. As the study program progresses through years 3 and 4, project-based and student-tutor directed approaches are introduced to encourage the notion of learner independence and to promote application of developing competencies Assessment The assessment methods place great emphasis on the learner's ability to demonstrate skills (B1)- (B3) through the unseen exams and the problem based exercises, the submission of coursework, reports, case studies, and set of assignments. Every student should submit a report for the practical training, and the graduation project, which provide a perfect vehicle to demonstrate capability in a range of intellectual skills linked to specialist knowledge, understanding and practical skills. Skill (B4) is assessed by e-courses.

5 epartment of Software Engineering Able to: C. Practical Skills C1. Specify, design and construct CASE tools and application software C2. Us logic and discrete mathematics to specify software elements C3. evelop and apply testing strategies for software applications C4. evelop software applications in a development environment that makes use of commonly supported tools C5. Identify some of the main risks of software development and use C6. Use network information services C7. Prepare and deliver coherent and structured verbal and written technical reports C8. Use the scientific literature effectively and make discriminating use of Web resources C9. Analysis of system requirements and the production of system specifications C10. Use appropriate computer-based design support tools Learning & Teaching Processes These skills are developed through opportunities to practice the activity in an appropriate learning context such as in laboratory or workplace placement. Guidance manuals may be used to support learning. All learners receive initial guidance on how to locate and use material available in textbooks, library and the Internet. The references provided for each module at the outset are for guidelines for the production of coursework, projects, essays, or reports. The varieties of programming languages and software tools that are used during most courses enable learners to achieve (C1 C8). The reports that should be submitted for graduation project and the practical training modules enable students to achieve (C9, C10). Assessment Coursework portfolios that are widely used at years 1 and 2 in the modules with 1-hour lab are considered as a mechanism for managing breadth and complexity and as an instrument for providing ongoing feedback. More huge assessment vehicles are the norm at years 3 and 4, with significant opportunity for student negotiation of assessment around a theme through deployment of learning contracts.

6 epartment of Software Engineering Able to:. Transferable Skills and Personal Qualities 1. Effectively participate in team-based activities; 2. Structure and communicate ideas effectively, both orally, in writing, and in cases involving a quantitative dimension 3. Use IT skills and display mature computer literacy 4.

Manage learning and self-development, including time management and the development of organisational skills 6. isplay personal responsibility by working to multiple deadlines in complex activities 7. Undertake practical training and placements in relevant organisations 8. Appreciate the need for continuing professional development and in recognition of the need for lifelong learning Learning & Teaching Processes Skills (1, 2, 4, and 6) are mainly develop through participating in team-based activities, structure and communicate ideas, and work either independently or with the others. Skills (3, 5) are learnt through the using of IT skills and the managing of learning and self-development. Practical training in relevant organizations and the need for continuing professional development are assumed by the skills (7, 8). Assessment Effective communication of ideas is an important criterion in assessing all areas of a learner's work, and the regular feedbacks as well as the final mark reflect this. Skills are assessed through the assembly of necessary information for writing reports especially for the graduation project and the practical training modules, or for the preparation of the coursework and their production on PCs.

CURRICULUM PROGRESSION: INTENE LEARNING OUTCOMES FOR EACH YEAR Year Year 1 Year 2 Year 3 Intended learning outcomes The curriculum that is based on the CC2001 is designed to have a broad based structure, which utilizes the knowledge of the new entrants to build a strong foundation through Introductory Level modules (Level 1: 1 st and 2 nd years). Mathematical and fundamental computer skills are emphasized at the early stage to prepare for more rigors later on. Mathematical modules, computer skills modules, and OOP module are used to develop the knowledge and understanding and the intellectual skills. In addition, other University based modules help in improving students' communication skills in Arabic and English languages and social/cultural issues. The aim of the core modules taught in this year is to prepare students for more complex and specialist work which could be studied at a later stage. Never the less, a wide coverage of the topics is necessary to enable choice and coherence of the curriculum. The core modules that could form the Intermediate Level (Level 2: 2 nd and 3 rd ) modules are designed with this purpose in mind. The intellectual skills may be developed through these modules by solving problems, writing programs, developing small software system, etc. The Faculty requirements that include essential transferable skills, together with professional, legal and ethical issues contribute both relevance and breadth. As the students progress to the third and final years they should be able to model objectoriented software systems; investigate and improve the specification of a software system, design and plan software solutions to problems using an object-oriented strategy, identify a range of solutions and critically evaluate and justify proposed design solutions, write and test programs using at least one object-oriented programming language, evaluate systems in terms of general quality attributes and possible trade-offs presented within the given problem, use and evaluate appropriate tools and techniques, reflect and reason concerning a given information handling problem or opportunity. It is however important to realize that theoretical studies have to be supported with practical and real life professional experience. Other generic skills must also be developed. This is achieved by organizing suitable work experience in industry for the students in the practical training module. Year 4 The elective modules in the 3 rd and 4 th years allow some flexibility for the student. The final year allows more flexibility for the student by providing the graduation project in addition to other Advanced Level (Level 3) modules. The graduate project is of cardinal importance as it represents an amalgam of various skills and key components of the programme learned so far by the student. It encourages the student to exercise flair and originality and demands strong commitment from him/her. Suitable project supervision ensures that the student is given guidance and support when required. However, the ethos of self-reliance and research has to be paramount. Regular maintenance of documentation and communication develops written and oral skills. With advanced modules, an appropriate depth of knowledge reflects the staff research interest and stimulates students to take the opportunity to develop their intellectual abilities.

STUENT INUCTION, SUPPORT AN EVELOPMENT (In order to deliver the year learning outcomes) Student induction, support and development are well-developed aspects with a framework, which provides support to the students throughout their programme. The key mechanisms include the following: Induction procedures for new students at addmission with access to senior members of staff. Induction for returning students is also implemented as it is beneficial in specifying the progressive nature of the learning experience, for example, higher order skills and independent learning. In both cases, many meetings are held between the ean and the students and the Head of epartment with the students. Provision of Academic tutor for each student Provision of good physical and learning resources including internet, library, and up to date electronic educational media, e.g. and web based material. Provision of good social facilities, e.g. internet cafes, sport spaces, cafeterias, etc. Provision of Self Study Facilities: - The Faculty Learning Resource Centre - The Electronic Library - The epartment Web page that provides students with all relevant information such as: Undergraduate Handbook Programme Specifications Lectures and course notes. Past Exams, tutorials, and assignments. - istance learning has been implemented through agreement with Phoenix International and through a project financed by UNESCO. - Incubator lab. The University provides some disabled students' facilities. Careers Advisory Service to provide information for students and graduates of the University. All simultaneous sections of a module have a staff student committee. Each committee meets at least twice each semester and discusses any matter of concern with the module. The staff members of each committee are the lecturers of the concerned sections. Student's opinion on the quality of the teaching is considered by completing a Module Evaluation Questionnaire for each module in each semester. Students' Memberships of various committees can add a voice in resource allocation and other matters. rop-in centre is utilized to enhance students' performance in some courses. Student Financial Aid is provided in two mechanisms; the first mechanism is through the Student Fund established by the University in addition to the Orphan Student Fund. The second mechanism is through special iscount Scholarships provided by the University to students based on various criteria. Free transportation and medical insurance.

CRITERIA FOR AMISSION Candidates must be able to satisfy the general admissions criteria of the University and of the School in one of the following ways: 1- They must be from the scientific branch and pass their Tawjehe exam with grade of at least 70%. The program is offered in full-time (4 years (honour)) (morning study mode) and part-time (evening study mode). 2- They can be bridged from the society colleges with a comprehensive exam mark of at least 65%. 3- They can transfer to the epartment from other universities. 9. PROGRESSION AN ASSESSMENT REGULATIONS In order to progress from one year to the next year, a student must complete successfully at least 10 modules (30 credit hours). To achieve graduation, the student has to complete successfully 44 modules (132 credit hours) with minimum passing accumulative average of 60%. The minimum pass mark is 50% for any module. Undergraduates are assessed for each module independently and there is no carry over of marks from one year to the next. If the student fails to get 50%, he/she has to take the module again. This can be repeated three times after which the student is excluded from the program and is given a chance to transfer to other program in the University. The progression rules provide some flexibility for the student to control his/her own rate of study. The course system with flexible prerequisites enables students to smoothly progress from level to level. The assessment procedure allows generous opportunity for students to improve their grades to secure progression. Students will be warned if they could not obtain average of at least 60%. In this case, students are encouraged to repeat studying those modules with low marks in order to increase their accumulated averages. However, students will be dismissed from the University if this average is not achieved in the third attempt. The assessment vehicles, which are deployed within the programme, are of many types: - 50% is given for two 1-hour midterm exams, coursework and/or seminars, projects, or essays, and 50% for the final exam that may be a written exam only or a written exam plus final laboratory exam (if applicable), final small project, or seminar presentation. The 50% of the final exam is from the University regulations. - Pass is given for the evaluation of the practical training module, - A committee of two staff members, including the supervisor of the project, assesses the graduation project module. The project's assessment includes the supervisor mark (35%) and the discussion committee mark (65% given as follows: 20% for project presentation, 25% for report writing, and 20% for defendant discussion).

14 epartment of Software Engineering The University regulations governing the Work and Attendance of students are given in the Student Guide 2005/2006. Full attendance is required at all lectures, laboratories, and any tutorials, which may be scheduled. Completed laboratory work should be handed in on time. Attendance at laboratories and at many lectures is monitored and attendance registers kept. Absence for holidays is not permitted in term-time. The duty of the lecturer is to keep continuous review of the work and attendance of the students with whom he is concerned. If the rate of student absences, in a module, is greater than 15% (or 20% for student representing the University in sportive or cultural activities) of the completely accredited hours and the student has no acceptable justification, then this student is excluded from that module. If the ean of the Faculty accepts the justifications of absence, then this student is mentioned as withdrawn without refunding the registration fees. A formal process is defined to tackle the problem of any student whose work and attendance appear unsatisfactory. ate of original production: 11/8/2005 ate of current version: 1/3/2007
