An international university to be established in Sri Lanka’s Port City, a multi-services special economic zone, will offer undergraduate and postgraduate degree programmes including in medicine and IT.
The university is estimated to accommodate 3,000 to 4,000 students, and will be located next to the City’s international school on a 2.5 Ha land plot, CHEC Port City Colombo Pvt Ltd said in a statement.
“Fulfilling the regional demand for undergraduate and postgraduate degree programmes in engineering, information technology, business studies/management, finance, marketing, and medicine, Port City Colombo aims to contribute positively towards the reversal of ‘brain drain’ and reduction of the current skills gap in the local employment market.”
