Qatar University versus Education city in Qatar


Education is considered .the most important and essential aspect of any community. In fact, it is the actual mirror that shows the extent of awareness and consideration people can have within a community. Many countries nowadays try to offer their people the best type of education including the best facilities and environment. Qatar is one of the leading countries in the education missions. ). Many do wonder about the differences between the new universities and the local university and if those differences could influence the students in somehow. As a matter of fact, Qatar University and the new foreign universities vary in some aspects.

With regards to courses and circulems, Qatar University offers different courses to study like engineering, economics and science. In contrast, each university in the education city is specialized in one unique course. For instance Taxes A&M is for engineering studies, VCU university concerns fashion and design studies and so on for the other universities. Qatar University has recently turned most of its Arabic studies into the English language except for some courses like geography. In other words, English language is now an entrance requirement for almost all courses at Qatar .university. This is a significant step to be applied, for it will encourage students to improve a second language which is English. Similarly, the E.C universities require an excellent English language since all the studies and circulums are American ones.

Abod.. After reading your articles, I deeply realize the imporance of English. Many countries usually focus on the education system and your country, Qatar as well. In order to hold outstaning and brilliant students, each university has its own strategy and curriculum to keep students which is very different from other universities.

Education is definitely a national priority in Qatar. I am sure that some day when you go back to Qatar you will serve as an inspiration for your younger colleagues. I know that you are working hard and trying to find your way. Commitment, hard work and the belief in doing the right thing will take you a long way in this life.
