A subcommittee of the Central Council for Education, an advisory panel to the education, science and technology minister, on Monday compiled a draft proposal on the minimum level of academic ability university students will be required to achieve before graduation, according to sources.
With the number of children nationwide continuing to decrease, universities are expected to start fighting each other for high school graduates, leaving aspirant students able to enter university without difficulty as long as they are not too selective in their choice of university.
In such circumstances, the council wants to maintain the quality of a bachelor's degree at a certain level, the sources said.
University authorities will be required to strictly assess students to ensure that they are not allowed to graduate unless they have met certain standards, the sources said.
