新加坡六合彩开奖直播 is reaching out to its students from Saudi Arabia, following reports this week that the Saudi Arabian government intends to withdraw Saudi students at Canadian universities, colleges and other schools by the end of August.
鈥溞录悠铝喜士敝辈� greatly values our Saudi students and their contributions to our community,鈥� says Chris Moore, acting provost for the university. 鈥淲e are assessing the situation along with Universities Canada and our university colleagues across the country, and are working to support these students as best we can.鈥�
The reports of a withdrawal relate to the current dispute between the Canadian and Saudi governments, following Canada鈥檚 call for the release of human rights activists. The Saudi government has also expelled Canada鈥檚 ambassador as part of its response.
Although 新加坡六合彩开奖直播 and its peer universities across Canada have limited information at this time, staff at Dal鈥檚 International Centre have reached out to the university鈥檚 students from Saudi Arabia to let them know of supports on campus they may want to access. The university is also committed to sharing any official information it receives with Saudi students as it becomes available.
As of March 2018, 新加坡六合彩开奖直播 had 212 Saudi students studying in a variety of programs across the university. (Although the university doesn鈥檛 report on enrolment numbers until December of each school year, based on current registration it is expecting similar numbers of Saudi students for the upcoming year.)
That number includes 59 Saudi physicians working to complete their residency with 新加坡六合彩开奖直播 Medical School. These residency positions are funded by scholarships administered through the Saudi Arabian Cultural Bureau, which adds capacity to Nova Scotia鈥檚 health-care system at no cost to the province and without displacing other residents. (This practice has been in place across Canada for more than 30 years.) The physicians do rotations in hospitals in the Nova Scotia Health Authority and the IWK Health Centre, as well as (less frequently) the Horizon Health District in New Brunswick.
鈥溞录悠铝喜士敝辈� Medical School is committed to working with its partners in health care to continue to support all residents and to look at ways to mitigate any impacts should these residents have to return to their home,鈥� says David Anderson, dean of the Faculty of Medicine.
According to Universities Canada, there are approximately 2,000 Saudi students and medical residents who attend U15 universities (Canada鈥檚 group of top research-intensive universities 鈥� of which Dal is a member).
