- O que poucos sabem é que a educação vai de mal a pior em todos os níveis (público-particular; fundamental-médio-superior): a Universidade de São Paulo caiu 69 posições no ranking mundial de universidade; Hospital Universitário no Rio ameaçado por falta de manutenção em suas estruturas, MEC descredencia universidades e fecha cursos….a ‘coisa tá feia’. Own research - by Luciano Eduardo de Oliveira
- Example sentence(s)
- “O MPF tem medo que, se não houver fiscalização, o ensino à distância se transforme em uma fábrica de diplomas. A universidade finge que ensina, o aluno finge que estuda e sai com o diploma”. - http://www.adufpi.org.br/noticias/ead-en
by Luciano Eduardo de Oliveira - ão números relativamente pequenos se compararmos com países europeus ou norte-americanos, contudo a chamada corrida para entrar no grupo dos países desenvolvidos, faz do nosso país uma fábrica de diplomas de nível superior, que muitas vezes tem que ser questionado quanto a qualidade oferecida em algumas instituições. - Sociologia em tela

- Uczelnia, która nie posiada rzeczywistych kompetencji edukacyjnych. Wikipedia - by Darius Saczuk
- Example sentence(s)
- Prawda jest taka, że UW to wielka fabryka dyplomów często dająca przestarzałą wiedzę. UW wysoki poziom ma, owszem, ale w rankingac - grono
by Darius Saczuk - ODP. O ile definicja fabryki dyplomów jest nieco niejasna, zazwyczaj odnosi się ona do drukowania dyplomów bez legalnych uprawnieс w zamian za wniesienie opłaty. PUSIUC nie jest fabryką dyplomów, ponieważ posiada uprawnienia do wydawania tytułów naukowych, nie przyznaje ich w zamian za wniesienie samej opłaty i posiada zestaw wymagaс koniecznych do zakwalifikowania się na poszczególne tytuły naukowe (dyplomy studiów wyższych). - Globe Star Club

- (Diploma mill, doslova "továrna na diplomy", též známá jako degree mill, "továrna na tituly", je organizace, která uděluje akademické tituly a diplomy lidem s minimálním nebo vůbec žádným akademickým studiem a bez zjišťování úředních akreditačních orgánů. Tyto tituly jsou často udělovány na základě životních zkušeností. Tituly a diplomy vydané diploma mills jsou často používané pro podvodné účely, jako je např. získání práce, povýšení nebo kvůli falešným nárokům zákazníků.). Wikipedia - by Zbyněk Táborský
