The Sieve
Juan Ignacio Pérez Iglesias, Rector of the UPV/EHU, said in Berria: “About 85% of the trunk credits are currently offered in Basque, and the offer of optional credits is relatively wide, although it is very unbalanced depending on the area of knowledge. We have the most serious problems with technical studies and the clinical part of medicine. It is not a lack of will or a lack of resources. When we call for teaching positions to be taken out to the public competition, many times no one is presented to the positions for engineers. On the other hand, we must demand a minimum quality, because I am not willing to make what we give in Basque lower quality than what we give in Spanish.”
