The Ministry of Higher Education and Scientific Research has recently signed a cooperation agreement with the Abu Dhabi Education Council, in order to follow up on the affairs of the Council’s students abroad. The agreement was signed by Her Excellency Fatima Al Zaabi, Assistant Undersecretary for Institutional and Support Services, on behalf of the Ministry, and Dr. Mohammed Baniyas, Executive Director of Higher Education Sector, on behalf the Council. The agreement was signed in view of the public interest and the need to regulate the management of student affairs through the Cultural Attachés abroad. It was agreed between the parties to forge closer ties with each other, in order to facilitate the follow- up on the Council’s scholarship students. Pursuant to the terms of the agreement, the Ministry is to supervise the 220 Council’s students abroad during the period of validity of the agreement, through the Cultural Attachés and offices of the Ministry, and the Cultural Attaché issues an administrative decision to commission or appoint any staff member it deems appropriate to oversee the Council’s students in the academic, financial, and administrative fields. Based on the agreement signed between the two parties, the Ministry, represented by its Cultural Attachés and offices, is required to issue a letter addressed to the educational institutions that accepted the Council’s students, and pay the tuition fees for the scholarship students and their accompanying children in line with the pre-approved regulations and policies, as well as pay the medical expenses or health insurance for the scholarship students and their accompanying children approved by the Council as the case may be, according to the systems in place at the Abu Dhabi Education Council, and the Council is to provide the Ministry with a list of names and numbers of scholarship students, and mention the degree, specialization, and the duration of study.
