The country's University Education System is the envy of the entire continent due to its high level and the large number of schools it has, said the Minister of University Education, Ricardo Sánche z.

During his participation in the Meeting for the Harmonization of Academic Profiles of the Hydrocarbons University, Sánchez emphasized that, currently, our country has 163 universities with different profiles and areas of training.

In addition, the head of the University Education portfolio highlighted the importance of the meeting, in which the rector of the Hydrocarbons University, Wilmar Castro Soteldo, and the Minister of Petroleum, Delcy Rodríguez, participated, and stressed that it has historic dimensions for the advancement of the oil and petrochemical industry.

He highlighted that 140 professionals are participating in 37 lines of research, with fourth-level credentials, from 29 universities in the country for this meeting. “This speaks of the capabilities that our country has today despite the difficulties caused by the nearly thousand Unilateral Coercive Measures. Today our university is getting in tune, at the service of the country,” he said.

In this regard, he stressed that this work is consistent with the instruction given by President Nicolás Maduro to continue to increase the academic capacity of universities and link it with the country's productive engines.
