Project description
Currently in Albania higher education, in agricultural and economic sciences, face a number of problems and
challenges like:
Curricula development
 Didactic infrastructure
 Lack of qualified academic staff, not appropriate continuation of knowledge transfer between higher
schools and universities
 Absence of interest among young student to study further beyond high school, getting university degree.
A continues process of training, developing curricula, applying methodologies and up to date knowledge transfer
it a necessity in the Albanian case (agricultural and economic higher education).
In Our University (which is unique in Albanian space) there are only 10% of the students coming from agricultural
and economic higher education. It is again imperative in order to provide consistence between these levels of
education, supporting agricultural and economic higher school level.
