"When these students have made their choice, was the start of the global economic downturn, when companies were demanding for students and young people with skills in science, engineering and mathematics.
• "What we see today is the result of these elections. Students are much more informed about what will give them success in terms of jobs, the university and the needs of the economy, we all know he is competing in a global market. This is a very positive message from today. "
