1. Background of the Program

Industrial Chemistry as a discipline had been established in 1956 E.C at Polytechnic Institute by the former Soviet
Union Government in collaboration with Ethiopian Government. The aim of the program was to train middle
level technicians in Industrial Chemistry, Electrical, Wood Work, Textile, Metal Technologies and Agro
mechanics. Industrial Chemistry Technology graduates contributed a lot to the development of the country by
working in various industrial and related sectors. They are servicing different process industries, research
institutes and organizations. Some of the graduates are so successful that they achieved to become prominent and
famous personalities in the country as well as at an international level. Finally due to the growth of industries and
research centers in the country the demand for graduates is increasing. By considering this, Bahir Dar University
has started Industrial Chemistry in degree program in 1997 E.C. It was a unique and the only program in the
country, but now some the other Ethiopian Universities such as Arba Minich University and Bule Hora University
have been opened the program. There is also a high demand of Industrial Chemistry graduates and professionals
in the market at this time and even in the future because of involvements of professionals in various industries,
research centers and other development sectors, and program has a plan to start MSc. in the fields of study.

Now a day the development of a country is closely related to and comes only with the existence of profitable and
healthy industries that produce diverse products. Industrial Chemistry is the profession that is needed for the
conception, creation, operation, control, optimization, and improvement of the process in industries. It is
characterized by the very broad nature of the subject spanning as it does several different disciplines. Chemistry,
chemical technology and engineering are the main courses for this field, and also courses in industrial
management such as Quality Management, Entrepreneurship Development, Industrial Organization and
Management, Computer programming, and some others for other disciplines. In general, Industrial Chemistry
profession requires fundamental knowledge of science and technology to work in a small- and large-scale
manufacture industries, and to carry out research in different institutions as a scientists and technologists.

2. Rationale of the Program

Industrial Chemistry is a discipline deals about product development, quality control, optimization and monitoring
of fundamental chemical processes used in industry for transforming raw materials in to useful commercial products.

Course Description: This course is designed to help students to develop not only the ability to construct reliable and logically
defendable arguments of their own and rationally evaluate the arguments of others, but also the abilities and skills of critical
thinking. All education consists of transmitting two differentthings to students: (1) the subject matter or discipline content of
the course ("what to think"), and the correct way to understand and evaluate this subject matter ("how to think"). We may do
anexcellent job of transmitting the content of our respective academic disciplines, but we often fail to teach students how to
think effectively about this subject matter, that is, how to properly understand and evaluate it. That means, we often fail to
teach how to think critically. Hence, the primary aim of this course is to teach students essential skills of analyzing, evaluating,
and constructing arguments, and to sharpen their ability to execute the skills in thinking and writing, and thus better prepare
them to succeed in the world. The understanding of the methods by whichwe develop our own arguments, form beliefs, weigh
evidence, assess hypotheses and arguments, and analyze reasoning will help you rationally evaluate the credibility of claims
and arguments you encounter in media, in everyday conversation, and in the classroom. You will also learn to become aware
of errors in reasoning and judgment, which we all occasionally commit. Finally, you will learn to develop your own arguments
with clarity and precision.

Course Objectives
By the end of this course the student will able to:
• Recognize the components and types of arguments;
• Develop the skill to construct and evaluate arguments;
• Understand the relationship between logic and language;
• Recognize the forms of meanings of words and terms;
• Comprehend the types, purposes and techniques of definitions;
• Understand the concept, principles, and criteria of critical thinking;
• Cultivate the habits of critical thinking and develop sensitivity to clear and accurate usageof language;
• Recognize the various forms of formal and informal fallacies; and
• Understand the components, attributes and representations of categorical propositions.

Course Description: Development efforts of any organization need to include and benefit people with various
types of disabilities, people at risks of exclusion/discrimination and marginalization, through providing quality
education and training, creating equity, accessibility, employability, promoting prosperity, reducing poverty and
enhancing peace, stability and creating inclusive society. Unfortunately, this has not been the practice for the
majority of people with disabilities and vulnerable groups, due to unfavorable attitude, negligence, inaccessibility
and exclusion from all development endeavors. It is obvious that people with disabilities are the large stand most
disadvantaged minority in the world. They are about 15 percent of the global population (about one billion people),
and 17.6 million in Ethiopia, with most extended families including someone with a disability (World Health
Organization and World Bank and 2011). An exclusion practice of this large number of persons with disabilities in
Ethiopia is an indicator of violating fundamental human rights that undermines their potential/ability to contribute
to poverty reduction and economic growth within their household, their community and the country. It is clear that
it is not impairment, but the exclusion practices that has contributed for insecurity (conflict), poverty aggravation

for persons with disabilities and vulnerabilities, that has highly demanding inclusive practices. Exclusion practices
of persons with disabilities have a long history, affecting the life of people with disabilities and the society at large.
In the past and even today people have been discriminated due to their disabilities. Inclusiveness promotes effective
developments through full participation of all members of a population, people with disabilities and vulnerabilities,
where all are equal contributors of development and equitable beneficiaries. Through inclusive practices, it is
possible to identify and remove social and physical barriers so that people with disabilities and vulnerabilities can
participate and benefit from all developments. Genuine inclusion of people with disabilities and vulnerabilities
allow of them to actively participate in development processes and eliminate dependence syndrome, leads to broader
benefits for families and communities, reduces the impacts of poverty, and positively contributes to a country’s
economic growth, development and ultimately create inclusive society. All stages of development processes of any
organization should be inclusive through creating equal access to education, health care services, work and
employment, social protection and all development center of human being. Hence, in this course, the higher
education students will learn how to assess, understand and address the needs of persons with disabilities and
vulnerabilities; and provide relevant support or seek extra support from experts. He/she also learns how to adapt
and implementing services for an inclusive environment that aimed to develop holistic development such as
affective, cognitive and psychosocial skills of the population with disabilities and vulnerabilities. Identification and
removal/management of environmental barriers would find a crucial place in the course. The students learn how to
give more attention and support for persons with; hearing impairments, visual impairment, deaf-Blind, autism,
physical and health impairments, intellectually challenged, emotional and behavior disorders, learning difficulty,
communication disorders, vulnerable persons including gifted and talented, and those at risk due to different reason
(persons who are environmentally and culturally deprived, abused, torched, abandoned, and orphaned..etc.). All
University students should be given the chance to study the specific developmental characteristics of each group of
persons with disabilities and vulnerabilities. Furth more, they also identify the major environmental and social
barriers that hinder the development of individuals; and come up with appropriate intervention strategies in inclusive
settings of their respective professional environment and any development settings where all citizens are equally
benefited.

Semester I
Course Description: This course provides a general introduction to economics combining elements of micro and macro
fundamentals. The first part of the course focuses on partial equilibrium aspects of theories of consumer behavior, producer
behavior as well as on the arrangements and implications of different market structures. It will also cover the neoclassical
theory of product and/or service pricing for perfectly competitive, monopolistic, oligopoly, and monopoly market structures.
In addition, topics covered will include factor market pricing, general equilibrium analysis and distortions which relate to
asymmetric information and moral hazard problems. The second part will discuss elements of macroeconomics that revolve
around issues of measurement of aggregate economic activities, unemployment, and inflation. Emphasis will also be given
to sources, consequences and policy responses to economic fluctuations. In the first part the course commences by
highlighting the underlying assumptions behind each theory followed by in-depth analyses of the decisions of economic
units subject to resource constraints in an effort to realize their respective objectives assuming the prevalence of market
clearing situation. Finally, students will be able to contextualize the key analytical instruments with stylized facts from the
Ethiopian economy.

Course Objectives
By the end of this course the student will able to:
✓ Describe the major economic units constituting a given society and their corresponding roles
✓ Explain the objective functions of consumers and how they attain this objective under resource constraints
✓ Define producers’ objective functions, describe their cost structures in the short and the long run, and apply partial
equilibrium approaches to find optimal prices and quantities under different degrees of competition.
✓ Tabulate markets into different categories on the basis of the number of buyers and sellers and outline the various
social welfare implications of eachmarket structure.
✓ Elaborate the concept of general equilibrium analysis, identify its merits anddemerits, and discuss the various
market failures due to distortions arising from imperfect information and cultivate the corresponding possible
remedialmeasures
✓ Understand how aggregate economic measures are constructed, their weaknesses, and alternative measures of
national wellbeing
✓ Identify the sources and adverse effects of economic crises and describe the pool of policy instruments that can be
deployed to mitigate the consequencesof these crises.
