Abstract
Software Engineering Education is a people-based process where the main stakeholders are academics, academic management, industry, students and government. This paper describes the role of such stakeholders in the quality process of software engineering education in the context of the quality assurance process which underpins the EMERSION industry-oriented education model developed for China. A brief description of the quality assurance system developed to support the needs of the EMERSION model is also provided. EMERSION is a partnership project between the Dublin Institute of Technology (DIT), Harbin Institute of Technology (HIT), and the University of Wolverhampton (UoW) funded under the EU ASIA-Link programme.
Introduction
Software Engineering Education is a people-based process where the main actors are academics, academic management, industry, students and government. The education process does not progress without the conscious efforts of these such actors in various aspects of programme delivery.
Monitoring and maintaining quality should be fundamental aspects of programme delivery and should be primary goals of all actors involved in the education process [3]. Quality in team-based course delivery cannot be achieved otherwise; consequently each of the actors involved in the education process has a major stake in the quality assurance process.
Each of these stakeholders havehas different requirements and expectations of the education process. Therefore a definition of quality needs to pass diverse viewpoints. However there is agreement that the major stakeholder i
