Over the years, there have been calls for the Somalia education system to formulate regulations to guide on awards of university degrees.
Education experts blamed the laxity of many universities in improving systems to be able to train more doctors, engineers and other personnel who are crucial to the country’s reconstruction after decades of civil war.
Instead of aligning educational curricula with reconstruction needs, the experts said these institutions are fixated on churning out more Sharia, law and business graduates leaving the future of many graduates uncertain.
