N2 - Improving and adapting strategies to teach Software Engineering (SE) insights is one of the primary goals of SE schools. Every year, we come up with plenty of studies that provide suggestions and guidelines on improving teaching methods, problem-solving strategies, and curriculum design. On the other hand, we do not know how the world's top-notch universities focus on the process and academic improvement. This study shares our experience while investigating the Tsinghua University (QS World ranked 17)1, School of Software process and providing an initial guideline for further improvement. In this study, we, first, aim to gather suggestions and guidelines given in the literature. Secondly, we observe and analyze the feedback given by external reviewers and, as an example, map those feedback-augmented findings and suggestions onto school processes. Lastly, we suggest how the software school can further enhance the teaching strategies, curriculum design, and problem solving skills.
