أكدت وزارة التعليم العالي والبحث العلمي استعدادها لقبول جميع الطلبة الناجحين من الدراسة الإعدادية في الكليات والمعاهد

وأوضح وزير التعليم العالي والبحث العلمي الدكتور عبد ذياب العجيلي أن الوزارة وبعد الاستحداثات التي شهدتها من فتح كليات جديدة والتوسع بأخرى يجعل بالإمكان أن توفر الوزارة مقعد دراسي لكل طالب اجتاز الدراسة الإعدادية بنجاح في الكليات والمعاهد لافتا إلى ضرورة مراعاة الحفاظ على الرصانة العلمية.

وأشار العجيلي إلى أن مشاريع الوزارة تتضمن السعي لانجاز الأرشفة الالكترونية واستخدام التطورات التكنولوجية بالشكل الذي يسهم في تحقيق الارتقاء بقطاع التعليم العالي والبحث العلمي ويجعل من الجامعات العراقية بمصاف مثيلاتها العالمية.
