This master degree looks to me like associate degree program to me. Not much technical at all. This is the main problem Cambodia faced. Not much critical thinking involved in curriculum taught at university level.
It seems most courses teach application rather than development and synthesys. That is the main reason Cambodians don't create many things to sell in the world market.

I got my BS in Computer Science a few years from Cal State. I took most of those classes in my second years. I don't how advanced those classes are, but it seems like Cambodia needs a higher standard.

[kvaaa]

This is an International School. It is supposed to be at a higher standard. I am affraid state universities might be worse than this.

I don't know the anglosaxon terms for degree. Does associate degree means two years of study in university ?
Sorry again but what is difference between application and development. For me application is like a software. and development is the coding of the software. So, I can misunderstand
Some part are technical : Programming Language, Data Structure & Algorithm, Advanced Data Structured and Algorithm. With this, you can begin to create a software and database to store data.

After, when they will have skill, they can develop managment ...
It sure it is not the best program but it is a good beginning !
The most important is skill in a company.

This is an International School. It is supposed to be at a higher standard. I am affraid state universities might be worse than this.

Oh I understand maybe what you are thinking.
I don't know the standard of international school. How many years ? Five years ?

But for me, this program is enough for beginners in computers science. Because Cambodia has no training for the moment in this domain. So, we must be patient. Maybe, not for international school, I don"t know.

[kvaaa]

Associate Degree is a two-year program. Master Degree is a minimum of 6 year-year probgram. Principle courses are taught at junior college level (associate program). When you said "this program is enough for beginners in computer science", this only reinforced my thinking that the program is for beginners and not for advanced degree. Application is the use of an existing software. Development is creating new a software.
My thinking is that an international school awards a degree recognized by other countries. Looking at the curriculum, I am not sure that the Master of Science Degree will be recognized by other countries. I have no intention of degrading anyone's knowledge or training, I only want to see our country develop this field a little more. From what I have heard and read, the government has put a great emphasis on human resource development. I am very happy to know that. I know cambodia has come a long way in the development of higher learning.

[KlaKhmer]

Thank you for your precision.

Maybe they list only the first two years of the program ? Because effectivly, the program seems to be on two years not six for computer science only !!!

[kvaaa]

I may have mistaken someone about the 6 year master program. Actually, it is only 2 years beyond the Bachelor Degree. 6 years is after high school.

I have visited a few famous private international universities such Cambodia University, Norton University for example. To me they are like training or tutorial centers in the west. Small campuses, and only a small number of regular faculties on campus. Some instructors don't even have really BSc and teach courses for Master degree programs if they can speak and read and translate English better than their students. They just read and translate into Khmer. That is why you see there are many stupid and fancy English names for objects like sky bridge for example in Cambodia. A tourist who knows Khmer can do as well. There, all you need is money to get in and you'll get degrees fast then you know anything that you learn. But, they all have connection to the high ranking officials in the government. It is not a bad place to clean money and get the degrees the same time. Having said that there some smart students come out and more knowledgeable and qualified instructors teaching at private universities as well.

But they are far less compared to the state universities, like the Royal Phnom Penh University and the Faculty of Medicine for example. Students have to write entrance exams to get in. There many of students have gone on to study abroad and get higher degrees. So, state universities in Cambodia are more recognized for their higher standard, at least in Cambodia. Private universities have a long way to go because they are all in there for big profit - many rich kids need bad schools.

What I suspect turns into a reality if your assessment is correct. This is the main reason Combodia is not competetive in the international arena when it comes to accomdemia and a host of other things. I heard some schools had to send the examinations to the western country to be graded because the Cambodian instructors were corrupt. This is really sad.

Words...... That's Crazy.....

I've heard that degree from Royal University of Phnom Penh is recognized by most univeristies in the US. Does anyone know it's true or not ?

Thank SeeMacau For the new Photos

@Kvaaa: This is just a normal private university in Cambodia, not a international 1 as i've known. The previous name was ASEAN University. They changed to PPIU because, I've heard, it's not for all ASEAN all the countries. It was just a name. so they had to change.
I was among the first intake student and I graduated IT there in 2006. I can say the quality is so so while i was study there because we lack of material like computers. However, Some of the lecturers are from RUPP and some graduated from abroad n working in big companies. Most of the first intake students got good jobs.
Sorry I don't know the quality there now. ... heard "they are improving"
If anything mistake, i'm sorry
