As part of its plans to strengthen ties with different educational entities operating within the region, Princess Sumaya University for Technology (PSUT) recently received a delegation from the Committee of the Higher Education and Culture at the Consultative Council of Oman. The delegation, which was received by the President of PSUT Professor Hisham Ghassib, toured the university campus, and held talks with the University's Council of Deans.
Through the talks held, the visiting delegation strove to benefit from all the educational experiences and expertise offered by PSUT, especially given that PSUT is the only learning institution in the region to specialize in offering educational programs pertaining to the fields of Information Technology and Communications. Members of the visiting delegation also discussed with the university's Council of Deans the different benefits that graduates gain upon obtaining a degree from PSUT, and how these benefits make PSUT's graduates an asset to the Job markets they operate within.
It is important to note that, the delegation's came as part of an educational study they were conducting. The study was aimed to shed light on the role played by private universities and colleges in fostering educational development in Oman, and on the role played by these institutions in raising the level of productivity seen within the Omani Job market.
