I hope this article helps you to get the list of universities in Afghanistan with country ranking and world ranking.
Salam brother Azad,
I hope you are in good health and happily leading a peaceful life. You have a nice website that helps lots of people with different subjects. I congratulate you on being ambitious and it shows from starting and maintaining this website. Keep up the good work, Azad jan.
I wanted to ask your opinion as to which of these colleges should I apply for a teaching job. I have a BA from an American university and am fluent in English.
I have lived in the US for 35 years and like to move back to Afghanistan. Do you think it is the right decision to go there and find a teaching job and live permanently?
I know the situation is getting worse but since I don’t have anyone to worry about my safety, why should I care. Everyone has their own destiny set by our creator. But here in the US, as a fifty three year old man, I can’t find work that pays a good salary because of age discrimination. All I find is low wage hourly jobs. Over there in Afghanistan, I wanted to contribute something and share my knowledge of the English language.
I am also pretty good with Farsi calligraphy, in case someone wanted to learn this ancient art.
Please reply with your comments and constructive opinions that would help me make the decision. In the meantime, may you be successful growing Wikilogy and along the way making friends with lots of people.
Warmest regards,
Sayed
You can apply to any one of the top 10 universities in Afghanistan. It’s better to serve own country. I appreciate your thinking.
