Author(s):
Abstract:
Curriculum is one of the most important factors and inputs of educational systems. Today higher education institutions and universities use various ways to evaluate the quality of their curriculum and identify the strengths and weaknesses after implementing a new curriculum to improve the quality of education. One of these is internal evaluation. The purpose of this research is to study the quality of the curriculum in 80 engineering departments based on the results of internal evaluation reports. The methodology of this research is a document analysis using the meta-analysis method on 80 internal evaluation reports of engineering departments. We used 5 criteria and 40 indictors to study the current status of the curriculum in these departments. The analysis of data indicates that the quality of curriculum in engineering departments is far from a desirable level and in need of revision and reformation. Lastly, several recommendations have been presented in order to improve the quality of the curriculum in engineering departments.
