A normação do ensino Superior em Moçambique, perspetivas e desafios para as Unidades Orgânicas na província do Niassa: Um estudo de caso

Abstract

Abstract: This article is the result of theoretical, documentary research, presenting a perspective on some standards that regulate higher education in Mozambique, a nation located in Southern Africa. The standards based on Decree 43/2023 of August 2nd and Decree 91/2023 of December 29th, aim to strengthen inspection and quality assurance mechanisms. The choice of the theme is a concern for the author, regarding the study of the path of higher education institutions in the province of Niassa. Observe the parts of the instruments, as challenges for the Organic Units existing in the province. The reforms brought, if observed, on the one hand will be beneficial for the development of the higher education subsystem and on the other hand, the reforms will force higher education institutions to discontinue some course or program due to lack of requirements. Still from the author's perspective, the requirements formulated aim to bring credibility to universities with regard to their principles that they value in teaching, research, extension, technological incubation, internationalization and other standards for their consolidation. The specific objectives aim to verify the existence of all normative elements for the full functioning of the organic units of the HEI existing in the province of Niassa. In this context, the reforms are expected to accelerate the quality of teaching in existing higher education institutions in the Province of Niassa. Inspection must serve as a means of preventing risks, and expected sanctions serve as a basis for stopping the operation of higher education institutions that commit irregularities. The inspection must apply the Law, as it is judged to be ineffective in sanctioning institutions that violate the Law.

Keywords: Decree, normalization, higher education, reforms and challenges, perspectives for Niassa.
