AccreditationMaldives Qualifications Authority (MQA / މޯލްޑިވްސް ކޮލިފިކޭޝަންސް އޮތޯރިޓީ) — established under Higher Education Act; statutory body under Ministry of Higher Education, Labour and Skills Development regulating Maldivian HE qualifications, programme accreditation, institutional licensing, and foreign-qualification recognition. Maldives HE is small in scale reflecting country's ~520K population: 1 NATIONAL UNIVERSITY (Maldives National University, MNU, 2011); 1 INTERNATIONAL ISLAMIC UNIVERSITY (Islamic University of Maldives, IUM, 2015); ~10-15 PRIVATE COLLEGES (Villa, Cyryx, Mandhu, Avid, MAPS, Clique, etc.). Plus specialised: Maldives Polytechnic (technical-vocational), Maldives Aviation Academy. Most institutions concentrated in capital Malé due to extreme urbanisation (~40% of population in Malé). Dhivehi is national language; English is HE primary medium given small Dhivehi-language academic-resource base and international student recruitment.
Founded 2005 (founded as Faculty of Education Hithadhoo Centre; major southern Maldives MNU presence). MNU's major southern Maldives campus on Hithadhoo island in Addu Atoll (Maldives's southernmost atoll). Founded 2005. ~1,000 students. Serves southern Maldivian atoll students who would otherwise need to relocate to Malé. CRITICAL CONTEXT: Addu Atoll was site of British military base 1942-1976 (RAF Gan) — different cultural heritage from northern Maldives. Hithadhoo is Maldives's 2nd-largest city after Malé (~12,000 population).
Always confirm a university's current accreditation with
the named national authority, and that the qualification is recognised in
the country where you intend to use it, before enrolling or paying any
fees. AlmiStudy records information to help you check — it is not an
endorsement.
