17 - Malta - Private education
Private tertiary education in Malta is provided through local tuition
centres that act as agents / representatives of foreign, mainly
British, tertiary education institutions. A number of centres provide
both full-time and part-time courses, sometimes adopting distance
learning supplemented by group lectures and tutorials. Most centres
concentrate on a number of specific courses, particularly with a
vocational / business / management / information technology bias. Very
popular is the Master in Business Administration in its various facets.
Some have substantial facilities and engage local academic staff
working in close collaboration with the academic staff of the mother
tertiary institution. They are usually proud to record the successes of
their students. Some centres are attracting a number of foreign
students who follow an internationally recognised degree awarded by a
foreign university at a significantly reduced cost. All these
institutions are financed through the fees they charge to students.
