20.02.2011
The Higher Education Ministry announced a plan to establish an electronic university, reports PK Abdul Gafour for Arab News. "We have been trying to establish an electronic university for the last one-and-a-half years to provide bachelor and masters degrees," said Muhammad Al-Ouhali, Deputy Minister for Education Affairs.
He said the proposed university would establish partnerships with internationally renowned online universities. "We'll also establish education centres in different parts of the Kingdom to serve students joining the university," he told reporters. Al-Ouhali was addressing a press conference in Riyadh on the occasion of the second international conference on electronic and distance education, which is being held in the capital from 21 February.
"Distance education is not a better choice for all groups of students. However, it serves people who cannot avail of regular education facilities due to different reasons such as geographical distance or job circumstances and age differences," he pointed out.
