Amman: Middle East University and the Regional Centre for Space Science and Technology Education have signed a collaboration agreement to launch a unique partnership path focusing on a package of diploma programmes and specialised training courses in several fields, including Remote Sensing, Space Technology, Global Navigation systems, and more.
The agreement was signed by the President of the University, Prof. Salam Al-Mahadin, in the presence of the Vice President of the Board of Directors, Dr. Ahmad Nasereddin, and the Director General of the Centre, Brigadier Muammar Haddadin, in the presence of a delegation of experts from the Centre.
In this context, Brig. Gen. Haddadin, in the presence of the Director of Scientific Affairs and Training Dr. Hanna Sabat, Head of Training Department Dr. Qais Al-Omari, and Head of Academic Programs and Scientific Research Department Dr. Ammar Al-Sakji, asserted that a university degree is now meaningless if the graduate lacks creative and higher knowledge skills. He further noted that Middle East University has succeeded in this endeavour, which requires serious awareness and urgent awareness of labour market requirements, through optimal investment in its students.
In the presence of Vice President Prof. Ahmed Allouzi and Director of the Consultancy, Training, and Languages Centre Prof. Anis Al-Mansour, Dr. Nasereddin stated that the university adheres to the vision of His Majesty King Abdullah II bin Al Hussein regarding collaboration between the public and private sectors. This is with the objective of stimulating economic mobility and activating a partnership on programmatic grounds within a clear framework aimed at improving the construction of a knowledge economy and investing human energies.
Prof. Al-Mahadin identified the university’s primary objective as benchmarking its cognitive and academic standing relative to its peers. She asserted that the traditional view of accreditations as mere certificates on the wall is no longer sufficient. Instead, the focus should be on the university’s contributions to the quality and advancement of the learning process, rather than on the number of accreditations.
