1. Background
Nowadays, software plays a central role in almost all aspects of daily life: in government,
banking and finance, education, transportation, entertainment, medicine, agriculture, and law. The
number, size, and application domains of computer programs have grown dramatically; as a
result, hundreds of billions are being spent on software development, and the livelihood and lives
of most people depend on the effectiveness of this development. Software products have helped
us to be more efficient and productive. They make us more effective problem solvers, and they
provide us with an environment for work and play that is often safer, more flexible, and less
confining. Software engineering is a discipline, which involves the specification, design,
construction and verification of large software systems.
Although the field of Software Engineering was established more than 30 years ago, Bachelor
degree programs in Software Engineering in Ethiopia came into existence in the last few years.
According to the GTP (Growth and Transformation Plan) goals and strategies set by the ministry
of Communication and Information Technology, the ministry emphasizes the fact that it will
work extensively towards creating an enabling environment for ICT professionals to be engaged
in innovation, creativity, and research activities. So that the ministry can effectively support GTP
reform to ensure sustainable development, poverty eradication, human resource development,
capacity development and good governance through well developed information communication
technology involvement. Hence, the department of computing has opened a new program in
Software Engineering aiming to produce skilled graduates in the field of Software Engineering to
fill the demand of manpower in the field at national level.
The Software Engineering program was started during the 2012-2013 academic year, with a
target of admitting students in the regular program from the year 2012 onwards, under the
department of Computing at School of Engineering. This degree program is a four year program
designed for students who wish to pursue careers as professional software engineers in industry
and commerce.Graduates of this program may pursue career opportunities in a variety of entrylevel positions, including software developer, software programmer, application developer, Web
application developer, software engineer, software applications analyst, Software Project
Manager, Software Tester and Web applications analyst.
2. Rationale for the program

7. Academic Requirements
5.1 Admission Requirements
o
The requirements for admission to the program are as per the Ministry of Education &
Universities admission requirement.
5.2 Duration of Study

Under normal circumstances, four years of study are required to complete the program.
5.3 Mode of delivery

-
Mode of delivery should be parallel to make fruitful student learning situation.
5.4 Graduation Requirements

The major graduation requirements of the program include:
Fulfilling the graduation requirements set by Xx Science and Technology University.
Successful completion of a total of 246 credit points as per this curriculum;
5.5 Medium of Instruction

The medium of instruction for the program is ENGLISH
8. Course Coding
The course code will have four-digit number like SEabcd. The first digit, a, indicates the year of the
course offering (1 for 1st year, '2' for 2nd year, 3 for 3rd year and 4 for 4th year courses);the middle
numbers, bc, indicate the module number in the program; thelast number, d, indicates order of the
course within the module.
9. Assessment and Evaluation
The different abilities that graduates of this program must acquire are assessed as followed.
Cognitive Abilities: Cognitive abilities are assessed by a combination of traditional written

examinations and continuous assessment, including marked essays, class tests and computer
programming problems.
Practical Abilities: Practical Abilities are assessed mostly by continuous assessment. Some of
practical abilities are assessed as part of group project module.
Transferable skills: some skills, like the use of software tools and ability to communicate orally
and in written form are directly assessed, in assignments or projects, other skills are not directly
assessed but their effective use will enhance the students overall performance.
Evaluation will be done based on the midterm exam, assignments, laboratory sessions
demonstrations, Project work, and final exam and etc
7.1 Mode of Assessment

Mode of assessment is tobe treated as followed
For any course having lecture, laboratory/practice and tutorial, continuous assessment shall be used for
each of them.
i. A student shall not score less than 50% in each lecture, laboratory/practice and tutorial assessments. If a
student scores less than 50% in the assessments indicated in Art. (ii above), the instructor shall give
additional assignment. However, if a student fails to score the pass mark (50%) the instructor shall
convert the grade into F.
ii. For courses having lecture, laboratory and practicum, each will be evaluated out of 100%. The relative
weight for each of these methods shall be proportional to their credit point. Such course shall be
assessed by at least five assessments.
iii. For courses having laboratory and practical activities, each will be evaluated out of 100%. The relative
weight for each of these methods shall be proportional to their credit point. Such course shall be
assessed by at least five assessments.
iv. For courses having lecture, laboratory, practical and tutorial each will be evaluated out of 100%. The
relative weight for each of these methods shall be proportional to their credit point. Such course shall

yYNSClR !G bFT&Rx!NJnNG
11. Teaching-Learning Methods and Materials

The basic teaching method is lecture supported by tutorial, design projects, practical laboratory exercises
and, in some cases, by simulation. E-learning and audio-visual aids are also used to support lectures.
Students are assigned to work on projects to enable them enhance innovative and independent working
ability. The industry internship is also an integral part of the teaching/learning process. Students are
provided with handouts and teaching materials.
12. Quality Assurance
Quality assurance can be used as an instrument to improve the system continuously, install accountability
and enable compatibility with other higher education systems. The quality of the program is assessed in
terms of the instruction performance and impact of program on the quality of graduates looking for a job
or further studies. The following factors help to ensure the quality of the education:
In order to maintain the level of courses, course description are prepared in detail containing
course objectives, learning outcome, course outline, textbooks, references and laboratory tasks.
With regard to instruction performance, in line with the University policy, student evaluations are
taken into account. The feedbacks from the students are used to improve the quality of
instruction.
Examinations are assessed by Department Graduation Committee to verify the level of the
courses instruction.
Industry feedback will be an integral part of the process of quality assurance. The quality of
graduates is measured with the feedback obtained from the employers and stakeholders who are
the immediate beneficiaries of the program and also the graduates who are able to rate their own
confidence in meeting the challenges they encounter after graduation.

Course Description:
This course examines basic issues in operating system design and implementation. The discussion is to
cover the tradeoffs that can be made between performance and functionality during the design and
implementation of an operating system. Particular emphasis will be given to the major OS subsystems:
process management (processes, threads, CPU scheduling), Memory management, file and I/O device
management and deadlock), memory management (segmentation, paging, swapping) and file systems.
Course Objectives:
Explain the objectives and functions of modern operating systems.
Describe how operating systems have evolved over time from primitive batch systems to sophisticated
multiuser systems.
Analyze the tradeoffs inherent in operating system design.
Describe the functions of a contemporary operating system with respect to convenience, efficiency, and
the ability to evolve.
Identify potential threats to operating systems and the security features design to guard against them.
Describe how issues such as open source software and the increased use of the Internet are influencing
operating system design.

linked lists, stacks, queues, and hash tables.
Compare and contrast the costs and benefits of dynamic and static data structure
implementations.
Choose the appropriate data structure for modeling a given problem.
