provides some information to explain thesituation, generalization of the data needs more study and over a longer period of time. In addition,some confounding factors such as evaluation methods and the skills of the teaching professors shouldbe carefully investigated. The next stages of this study will include the comparison of grades in othercourses taken in the department and outside for both groups. In addition, categorizing the transferringof students based on their previous major may reveal more correlations.ReferencesAustin, A. M., & Gustafson, L. (2006).

without reform, Africa is likely in 2020–30 to have more graduates withoutcritical technical skills than those with them (African Capacity Building Foundation, 2017).STI capacity has been shown to be closely linked to variations among countries in productivity(Allard, 2015). Countries with a larger STI capacity generally tend to be the most prosperous andmost industrialized. They also tend to be more politically stable, often with functioningdemocratic systems; and they provide high-quality employment for their best talent, which helpsto stem the brain drain and bolster the country´s human capital.
