Principles of curriculum development

During curriculum development following principles should be

adhered to:

Fundamentality of education - one of the main advantages of

the current university education is its fundamentality ;

Consideration of the needs and requirements of the labormarket.

9


10/14

Mechanisms of ensuring these principles

Relatively stable element, which ensures the fundamentalityof education (approximately 75% );

Dynamically changing element, which has mainly practical

orientation (approximately 25%). It is this block that is formedtaking into consideration the needs of the labor market.

10


11/14

Collaboration with the employer in the implementation

of the curriculum

1. Regular meetings with the company managers currently active in

the market, discussion of possible changes to the curriculum in

order to reduce the adaptation period of the new employee (twiceper academic year).

2. Involving practitioners (the representatives of the labour market)

in the academic process.

3. Organizing practical trainings of students as well as pregraduation

internship for students in companies.

11


12/14

Collaboration with the employer in implementation of

the curriculum (continued)

4. Involvement of practitioners in the process of determining the content of

courses, dissertations and master's thesis and the subsequent sharing with

the RAU faculty members the management of these works.

5. Organization of informational days for companies and organizations

active in the labor market in given field on the basis of the university.

Presentation of the companies activities directions. Organization of

direct meetings of the company representatives with the students.Primary selection of possible candidates for the admission to the

company.12

Basic Problems

1. Employers are often not prepared to participate in the process of developing and

improving the quality of the graduate students (technical support / arming of

the educational process and staff, financial investment, providing the

universities with innovative technologies, etc).

2. Frequent conflict between the demands of the labor market and national

qualification frameworks. Regarding to RAU, current problem is more

significant as the University has to comply with the both Armenian and Russian

legislation.

3. Misunderstanding between the employer and the university in a dialogue on

determining the scope of learning outcomes and professional competencies of

graduates in a particular specialty.
