TIRANA, March 3/ATA/- The leader of the Democratic Party, Lulzim Basha held today a meeting with the students of Polytechnic University of Tirana, where the main focus of discussion were; changes in higher education policies, increasing funding, autonomy of universities, as well as the implementation of dual training programmes.
During the conversation with the students, stressed that, one of the main priorities of the opposition is to increase funding for students coming from families in need.
Basha also said that “we must definitely connect the university to the labor market. And the classic way to connect universities to labor market is through training, and internships during the teaching process and at the end of graduation, at the end of the academic Bachelor and Master’s degree.”
“The universities, faculties and departments must be given autonomy, having the ability and opportunity to make decisions without being controlled by anyone else, also the role of students is of great importance in terms of promoting transparency and accountability that will help advance the quality of education,” Basha said.//a.i/
