An education ministry and citizen protection ministry bill unveiled on Wednesday introduces three changes to the existing system by which candidates qualify for a place in tertiary education, including that of a minimum pass mark set by each department, ANA reports.
The second change restricts the number of the courses candidates can select on their application form, which will be completed in two stages, and a third introduces a maximum time limit οn studies. For the four-year study programs, students are given an additional two years to complete the course and for university study programs exceeding four years, an additional three years.
Another three changes are made in draft law with respect to increasing security in university campuses, which include controlled entrance into universities and setting up security structures and a special University Protection Force that will wear a special uniform but not carry guns.
