Govt coming up with law to compel institutions to teach 80% STEM courses, 20% social sciences & humanities

Speaking to Sunday News, Higher and Tertiary Education Deputy Minister Dr Godfrey Gandawa said that Government is coming up with a law that will compel institutions to teach more science and technical subjects than social sciences and humanities.

Said Gandawa:

We are coming up with the law and policy which is at an advanced stage. The reality is, no university graduate is ready for employment as they leave university. None of them. They all need further training. (Further training does) not (mean) adding years at college. They (graduates) are employed but must learn the trade and industry further.
