Thousands attend it. However, a lot of bright Kandahari minds avoid it because it's been traditionally neglected, and it lacks resources.

I see. Afghanistan's govt should start focusing on educational institutions in provinces other than Kabul. While Kabul evolves, the growth of other provinces remains at a constant. It seems Afghanistan's govt is only Kabul's govt.

Kandahar University has thousands Male students attending and females attending the University.

There isn't enough space. More space is needed and teachers and resources, to fulfill the enrollments demand.

Enrollments are increasing yearly, plans of expansion were being discussed
in July.

Great wall of Qandahar now surrounds the Qandahar University and Campus.

The University has 4 main faculties Medicine, Engineering, Education and Agriculture.

The Students are bright some with very high IQ.

As Admin khan Lala pointed out, its been neglected for years.

it still needs a lot of rescouces.

Shir Aqqa Safai Speaks to the Audience

Shir Aqqa Safai, Director of Kandahar Education Department said, “On behalf of the Kandahar Education Department, I would like to thank the government of the United States of America for providing financial support to the Kandahar Institute of Modern Studies. This support will enable hundreds of women and men to have access to modern education, which is the need of today’s Afghanistan to move towards lasting peace and development.” He added, “I hope this support will continue until this Institute can stand on its own feet.”






High-speed internet access will allow the women to study more efficiently with a variety of international education programs including the Canada-based Southern Alberta Institute of Technology (SAIT) and one-on-one ESL tutoring with New York-based Alliance for International Women’s Rights via Skype. The school staff can also communicate with its partners such as the Canadian International Learning Foundation and the National Educator Program for teachers, administrative capacity-building and financial support through real-time video-conferencing.
