Abdullatif A. Al-Bader, President of Kuwait University talks about the major challenge for the education sector in Kuwait.
He says, “It鈥檚 a problem and it鈥檚 a problem not only in Kuwait but everywhere. It鈥檚 a problem in Kuwait specifically because everybody wants to go to university and in the West, not everybody goes to university. In Kuwait everybody goes to university and plumbers and all the others come from somewhere else. This is a problem that Kuwait faces.”
“We鈥檙e tackling this problem by introducing new areas. For instance, Kuwait doesn鈥檛 have a school of public health. We鈥檝e started it and within a year it鈥檚 going to start admitting students. We鈥檙e already now introducing a knowledgeable workforce into the country which can benefit the healthcare system in Kuwait,” he adds.
