T. Phan, P. Vo, H. Tram, T. Nguyen, M. Nguyen, T. Tieu (2020).  REVIEWING AND IMPROVING IT ENGINEERING CURRICULUM IN TRA VINH UNIVERSITY. Volume 2, pp.185-195.

The information technology engineering curriculum at Tra Vinh University has been designed in the CDIO approach 6 years before. Up to now, we have two cohorts of graduates from this program. Therefore, it is time to review to improve the curriculum. The program evaluation is based on standard 12 of CDIO. The paper focuses on reassessing the importance of intended learning outcomes and levels of competencies. To carry out this task, we have conducted a stakeholder survey including companies, alumni, lecturers, and students. Based on the surveyed results, the current program will be reviewed and improved.
