Unrecognized Diplomas: DGES Decision for Private Institutions

The DGES emphasizes that private higher education institutions in Senegal must adhere to regulations when issuing diplomas such as PhDs, engineering doctorates, or DBAs. It condemns the illegal issuance of these degrees outside the legal framework, which are not recognized domestically or internationally. The DGES formally demands that these institutions cease such practices immediately, warning of possible closures and legal actions, and advises students and employers to verify the status of institutions before enrollment or hiring.
