The Ministry of Higher Education and Scientific Research has initiated official communication with its UAE counterpart, through correspondence and approved channels, to follow up on the file concerning the non-recognition of degrees from the Syrian Virtual University and a number of private universities by the relevant authorities in the United Arab Emirates.

Minister of Higher Education and Scientific Research Marwan Al-Halabi emphasized, in a post on his official Facebook page today, Sunday, that the rights of Syrian university graduates and the status of these universities are not a file that can be delayed or ignored, stressing that the Ministry will spare no effort in following up on any issue affecting the academic and professional future of Syrian students with the relevant authorities.

Minister Al-Halabi clarified that the Ministry is dealing with this file with responsibility and seriousness, stemming from the necessity to protect the rights of graduates who obtained their qualifications in accordance with the systems approved in Syria, and not leaving them to face repercussions that could affect their employment opportunities or professional stability without following up on the causes of the problem and working to address it.

He added that the Ministry is following up on the organizational and academic aspects related to the file with the UAE side, with the aim of clarifying the necessary requirements and procedures, and reaching a solution that ensures the protection of graduates' rights and the recognition of the relevant qualifications.

Minister Al-Halabi stressed that the Ministry's responsibility does not end at issuing certificates, but extends to following up on graduates' cases and defending their rights, confirming the continuation of official communications until a clear resolution is reached for this file.
