| The government has tightened rules on universities and continues to axe underperforming schools in light of graduates' unemployment, student enrollment and number of faculty members. The college restructuring committee has come up with a package of measures to raise competitiveness in higher education amid the trend that student enrollment continues to decrease due to a lower birth rate. |
What does this mean for us?
I am interpreting it as meaning there could be less university jobs available for Westerners. Am I wrong on that? |

Publicly funded / government universities/schools.
If you are at a private uni, no worry.
If you hold post grad qualifications = no worry.
If you have an unrelated BA = start to worry.

Fewer University positions for Westerners with only an unrelated BA. |
