The Ministry of Higher Education says a Memorandum of Cooperation has been signed between the ministry and the National Development Corporation (NDC).

Based on the memorandum, the company will provide job opportunities to students who graduate from universities with necessary skills.

Acting Minister of Higher Education Neda Mohammad Nadim said he would hand over staff and professionals to the NDC so that the company can use these capacities in different departments.

According to Nadim, with the signing of this memorandum, a large part of the problems of the Ministry of Higher Education will be solved in the field of organizing practical work.

“The facilities that the National Development Company have; if we provide them to students, professors and the Ministry of Higher Education, we need millions of dollars in budget,” said Nadim.

“Students who complete the bachelor’s and master’s degrees will be introduced to the National Development Company if needed and they will practically work in the research projects of the National Development Company,” said Fazil Faizan, head of business and investment for NDC.

Some university professors, meanwhile, consider this joint move of the ministry and NDC an effective and valuable step in the direction of the country’s progress.

Qosh Tepa Canal is the biggest project of the National Development Corporation, and work on the project is still ongoing.

The company still intends to do great things in the fields of mining, energy production, industry, agriculture and transportation.
