Bahrain, Kuwait to promote educational cooperation

Bahraini Minister of Education Majid bin Ali Al-Nuaimi said Wednesday that he tackled during his visit to Kuwait ways of bolstering cooperation in the field of education especially the higher education. He noted that the discussions focused on the issue of the Bahraini university whose license was cancelled and the conditions of Kuwaiti students enrolled. In a press statement, the Bahraini minister asserted on the Kingdom's keenness to ease all restriction and solving problems facing all students studying abroad, including students from the State of Kuwait. The minister added that Bahrain's Higher Education General Secretariat will approve all degree certificates issued by one of the universities here, noting that Secretariat would inform all students in this regard. Al-Nuaimi explained that the Higher Education Council also was able to transfer students who were studying at that university to other universities in Bahrain, approved with the same tuition fees and without any additional fund to the students.
