Abstract

China currently has one of the world's fastest growing software industries. However the demand for skilled software engineers is currently outstripping supply. Educational institutes are the primary provider of software engineers. Not only can China's educational institutes not meet the demands of software engineers in terms of quantity, the quality of software engineering graduates at the moment is considered insufficient. The need for educational institutes to be more aware of industry requirements for software engineering graduates and to tailor the curriculum and teaching and learning practice to better fulfil these has been recognized as critical to China's success. To assist with this the Emersion project was established in 2003 to attempt to exchange knowledge and expertise between the EU and China with the goal of developing an industry-oriented education model for software engineering in China. In this paper, we describe our experiences in developing the curriculum which is at the heart of this model and which is based on published best practice and experience of industry and academia in the EU and China

为中国新兴的软件产业开发软件工程课程

中国目前是世界上软件产业发展最快的国家之一。然而，熟练的软件工程师目前供不应求。教育机构是软件工程师的主要提供者。中国的教育机构不仅在数量上不能满足软件工程师的需求，而且目前的软件工程毕业生的质量也不足。教育机构需要更多地了解行业对软件工程毕业生的要求，并定制课程和教学实践，以更好地满足这些要求，这被认为是中国成功的关键。为了协助实现这一目标，欧盟于2003年成立了“新兴”项目，旨在在欧盟和中国之间交流知识和专业知识，目标是在中国开发一种以行业为导向的软件工程教育模式。在本文中，我们描述了我们在开发课程方面的经验，这是该模式的核心，它基于欧盟和中国产业界和学术界已发表的最佳实践和经验
