Taiwan to cut higher education sector

The Taipei Times reported that, due to demographic decline of the number of prospects for higher education study, a number of both public and private institutions would draw down enrollment or close. The process of retrenchment while seeking to maintain quality is a precarious challenge. A core consideration should be positioning higher education in ways that maintains the governmental/public commitment and equally benefits the individual as well as contributing to the public good by preparing workers and citizens who will be productive contributors to their passport country.
