The culture of democracy and international quality standards in the balance of Higher Education

 
Page Content



"Justice is the way to democracy and any diminution of it is against democracy, and of course justice will not satisfy everyone but it will satisfy the majority."

"Our door is open and always will be, and we hope God makes us always an ally to all the oppressed. A complainant can see me at any time, and convey to me his grievance. "

"The openness that must prevail among us and the constructive dialogue purifies innovative experiences and suggested opinions from impurities."

That is what Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al-Nahyan said. And because democracy is a culture and behavior,  accomplished by practice and dialogue, and accepting criticism, the "Ministry of Higher Education and Scientific Research" has followed up on the views and problems of students through the social networking site of the Ministry, which is not only a platform for dissemination of knowledge and an area where minds communicate, but a platform for all stakeholders in the institutional educational process and its constraints,  and for the resolution of issues and problems to achieve a distinct and stable learning environment.

In a grievance submitted by several students to the Ministry's social networking site, they explained that their university took a decision to expel them. The Ministry followed up this issue with the university administration, who submitted a report clarifying that the decision of expelling two students from the University was for leaking examination questions and selling them for money, and failing of 7 students in all courses in the second semester of the academic year 2012-2013 whose participation was proven in the process of leaking the exams, whether to buy or distribute or utilize them without paying. According to the report, this application of disciplinary rules  is without discrimination or exception  and which is proportional to the size of the infringement and in accordance with the regulations of the University which were published in its documentation, notably in the University Student Booklet.

Vice President of the University ordered the formation of a Commission of inquiry to investigate the incident, who called the professors of the courses concerned, to ensure that proper procedures were followed in the preparation of examinations and security procedures and to identify those cases. And instructions were given to the Information Technology Department to take measures to ensure safe access to the Internet and to prevent any unauthorized entry in the future.

Having caught a Pharmacy college student during the Clinical Chemistry exam in possession of  a paper with the University logo, the paper turned out to have the exam questions, and another student was caught cheating using a mobile phone during the exam of the Dosing course, the Deanship immediately canceled the leaked exam questions and  repeated the exams of both courses. This mechanism and these rules reinforce confidence in  the educational institutions in the State, and its reputation of law enforcing and following international standards, making the Emirates the largest international education center, with (37) branches of prestigious universities, representing approximately (19%) of university branches abroad.
