Education Systems and Invisibility of Bright Future for Resident Students in Gulf Consolidate Countries
The research objective is to critically analyze the costs and benefits of higher education systems in the GCC for the long-term local non-national resident students. The research will identify the local policies and social-economic factors that limit resident immigrant students from enrolling in government or public-funded universities. GCC higher education may seem discriminatory, but it is influenced by different political and socioeconomic variables that inform policy-making decisions . The research is essential to policy makers on how the low socioeconomic status of resident families affects their children’s access to higher-level education, which remanufactures the burden of the GCC governments in taking care of unproductive, unemployed, and poor children of residents families.
Research Questions
• How does GCC local policy demotivate the completion of higher education for long-term resident students?
• How does the resident student’s enrollment in public universities enhance the long-term economic growth of the host country and fulfill local market employment demand?
• Does an increase in residents’ admission to public universities reduce socioeconomic issues in the host country?
• Does the establishment of higher education funding systems for resident students increase their enrollment at public universities?
• Does educating resident students result in the growth of the DGP?
