Abstract : The study area is located in western Ethiopia of Oromia regional state on East wollega zone, at a distance of 332 km from Addis Ababa capital city of Ethiopia. It is bounded between 360 30’00” to 36045’00’’longitude and 9005’00’’ to 9015’00’’ latitude. The area is covered by exposure of volcanic rock and some of quaternary sedimentary rock. Rainfall and snow are a natural source of ground water by percolating through soil zone and unsaturated material.    click here
The main objectives of this study are to evaluate the role of geological structures, geomorphological features and surface design on the occurrence of ground water flow. The methodology used to study the area is pre-,  and post- during field work by using different geological,  geomorphological methods  to determine the geomorphic feature and geological structures such as, lineaments and tectonic structure (joint, fracture and dykes) and geospatial method using (Arc GIS software)  to determine DEM (Digital Elevation Model), slope and aspects of study area.  The majority land of the study area is covered by volcanic rock units having dendrite drainage patterns, dome shape and flat land forms. The fractured basalt and high topography are suitable for  ground  water  percolation;  whereas  the  low  land  and  altered  basalt  are  essential  for discharging of the ground water.Keywords: Dendrite, Lineaments, Percolation, Topography, Unsaturated, Volcanic rocks

Abstract: Globalization has played a massive role in the last 2 decades fostering business and foreign direct investment .Along with its striking presence in business and strategic management, the free trade and entry of investors have equally triggering development of international student mobility in the field of higher education by establishment of academic institutions in  UAE. The mobility rise in global competition and rapid expansion of tertiary education capacity are expected to catalyze the growth of higher education investment opportunities in UAE.  click here
 With a rising prominence in many aspects of economic and cultural life; with high-quality education as a natural complement to their globalization process, Higher Education investment per capita in UAE is likely to exceed anywhere else in the world. Private sector investment in global Higher Education can nurture the education system in developing countries through infusion of capital, latest teaching pedagogy and research thus creating a talent pool of young scholars who can contribute to their nation’s development.  Private capital into education has significant return of investment scope along with trimming the gap in education quality between developed and developing countries.

Considering the investment in Higher Education in UAE, the opportunities are immense for new entrants into the tertiary education sector.  It is estimated that the total number of students graduating from high schools each year in the UAE is around 20,000.  UAE has quite a large number universities and colleges.  Sixty percent of Dubai based universities are inside the free zones and the universities that offer more than 400 programs.  As per the latest statistics, it is estimated that around 75,000 students are enrolled in Higher Education Institutions (HEI) in Dubai and Abu Dhabi alone. If the numbers from other Emirates are computed then it is definitely soaring.  The school enrolments growing at 10% every year and the growing attractiveness of UAE as destination for investors in the field of Higher Education promises UAE tremendous opportunities in future.

Internationally a trend to invest more in the Higher Education sector is seen as a measure to ensure the economies develop sustainably and healthy with the establishment of Higher Education sectors in alignment with the growth of economy. However, knowing the effect of Higher Education investment and how to evaluate higher education investment are not well researched. Based on the economic and Higher Education statistics, this study aims to assess the Higher Education investment efficiency of UAE and to establish a more comprehensive and practical model to evaluate the investment efficiency of Higher Education in UAE.
