Jordan participates in international exhibition on educational tourism in Oman
EduTrac international exhibition, held recently in Muscat, has concluded on Wednesday, as Jordan participated through a special pavilion prepared by the Jordan Tourism Board (JTB) in cooperation with the International Student Affairs Unit at the Ministry of Higher Education and Scientific Research.
Eight universities, seven of which are public, and one is private, represented Jordan in the exhibition specialized in the field of educational tourism.
Minister of Higher Education and Scientific Research, Wajih Owais, stressed the importance of public and private Jordanian universities's participation in such exhibitions, along with the need of universities' marketing themselves and their specializations and flagship programs they offer that keep pace with modern requirements and take into account the needs of regional and global labor markets.
He lauded the Jordanian higher education sector reputation, which contributed to the graduation of thousands of international students who proved their excellence when they joined the labor market, calling for building on these achievements to attract more international students to study in public and private Jordanian higher education institutions.
He said that the Ministry of Higher Education and Scientific Research, in cooperation with the JTB, had recently completed a draft strategic plan to attract foreign students for the years (2023-2027), which included seting up marketing exhibitions for public and private Jordanian universities in a number of countries, starting from 2023, by the ministry and the JTB.
JTB Director General Abdul Razzaq Arabiyat said this participation aims at highlighting Jordan, its excellence and success in the field of educational tourism to attract more students into studying in the Kingdom, in addition to attracting more students to Jordan within the promotion and marketing policy that the JTB is working on.
He added that this effort comes in harmony with the outcomes of the recent visit of His Majesty King Abdullah and HRH Crown Prince Al Hussein bin Abdullah to the Sultanate of Oman, which opened promising prospects for cooperation in many fields between the two countries.
Arabiyat explained that there are more than 3,000 male and female students from Oman who study in tJordan and the JTB, in cooperation and coordination with the Ministry of Higher Education and Scientific Research, is looking forward to increasing this number in the coming years.
