Curriculum Vis-A-Vis Market Demand

Meanwhile in Malaysia, the country's universities have been urged to work closely with the industry to make sure graduates churned by these institutions meet market demands. Quote, from Bernama, the Malaysian national news agency:

PEKAN, June 30 (Bernama) -- Universities must work closely with the industrial sector, including in co-curriculum development, to ensure their graduates are relevant to market demand, Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak said today.

The Deputy Prime Minister said the co-operation was crucial to avoid a gap between the graduates churned out by local universities and the industries' needs.

He said university co-curriculum must be compatible and relevant to the industrial sector's requirements.

Excuse me, co-curriculum, you say? But I thought the problem lies with the curriculum, not the co-curriculum, also sometimes known as extracurriculum.
