EuropeAid Feature - Supporting the modernisation of higher education in Syria

20-01-2011

In the process of opening its economy, Syria needs a greater number of graduates to further develop specific economic sectors. Only a competitive higher education system can meet this demand. The current highly centralised system faces the challenge of developing relevant programmes and curricula which meet labour market needs. To this end, the Ministry of Higher Education and Syrian higher education institutes are in the process of modernising higher education management, institutions and curricula.
