Perhaps I'm a little underenthusiastic, but this looks more like
coursework for a graduate degree in S/W Eng.  In fact, it looks
a great deal like the MS S/W Eng curriculum at Univ. of Houston
at Clear Lake.

Considering the way we've traditionally treated our junior
engineers, perhaps a course in Software Maintenance is all 
that would need to be added to a BSCS :-)
