Align My Curriculum: A Framework to Bridge the Gap between Acquired University Curriculum and Required Market Skills

doi: 10.3390/su11092607
With the advancement of technology, academics and curriculum developers are always under pressure to provide students with skills that match the market’s requirements. A systematic and continuous examination of the market is needed, to stay up to date with the required skills, and then to update the curriculum to train the students with required market skills. In this article, we present a framework referred to as Align My Curriculum (AMC). The AMC framework aims to facilitate alignment between acquired university curriculum outcomes and required market skills. It can be used to classify, compare and visualize the data of a university curriculum and job vacancies in the market. The presented framework benefits academics and curriculum developers by improving the courses and therefore bridging the skills gap. Stakeholders from both academia and industry can gain insights into the predominant required and acquired skills. In addition, it may be useful for analysts, students, and job applicants. This article describes the architecture, implementation and experimental results, with visual analysis to help decision and policy-makers.
