QS is a British company specializing in the analysis of
higher education institutions around the world.
The meeting discussed international classification
standards, and Sarayrah said the agency is constantly in contact with
international accreditation, quality, and classification institutions.
He said the ongoing cooperation with these institutions aims
to contribute to keeping abreast with developments in the higher education
field, Petra reported.
He added that the QS classification is a catalyst for
Jordanian universities towards competitiveness and globalization, and that
participating in this classification requires more work and clear visions to achieve
a high level of quality.
This contributes to improving higher education
outcomes in Jordanian universities, and determining its position relative
similar universities based on selected international standards.
For his part, Ashwin stressed the importance of
international classifications for the benefit of higher education institutions,
preparing their outputs, evaluating their programs and activities and the
quality of their outputs in accordance with the best internationally known
standards.
The two sides agreed to boost means of cooperation to
develop a roadmap to improve the performance of higher education institutions
in line with their vision of achieving excellence and competing regionally or
globally.
