COngrats for the anniversary :) .. I would like to know since you are the minister for tertiary education if anything could be done for engineering students not to have to done a 5months industry placement ! as they are currently forced to do it. It could be spread through 3 years in the holidays instead or made optional. Since most other courses, students join companies afterwards and work. Whereas the students going on training are sometimes forced to do any kind of jobs.
ReplyDeleteThanks Dr. Jeetah. Keep on with good works.
