The University Of Information Technology And Management, Rzeszów, Poland

Your blogger has learned that incumbent Yangon Chief Minister U Phyo Min Thein has been conferred an honorary doctorate from an entity "University Of Information Technology And Management" which is based in Rzeszów, Poland.

Yangon PM has not bought the degree - that honorary degree does not entitle him to style himself as "Dr. Phyo Min Thein" - and so he will not be in this Hall of Shame. This journal entry is an investigative report about that entity which confers him a honorary doctorate.

A quick Google look-up has revealed that the web site of The University Of Information Technology
And Management, Rzeszów is "http://en.wsiz.rzeszow.pl". Its domain name is different from the home pages of other universities in Rzeszów. The University of Rzeszów's domain name has edu.pl "http://universitiewww.ur.edu.pl/en". Meanwhile, the site of Rzeszów University of Technology on Internet is https://w.prz.edu.pl/.

Polish government's Ministry of Science and Higher Education keeps web pages to inform lists of Polish universities. The "University Of Information Technology And Management" is not among the list. On the other hand, the University of Rzeszów and the Rzeszów University of Technology are in the government ministry's universities and technical universities. See below:

Therefore, while The University Of Information Technology And Management, Rzeszów may be
an educational institution, it is not listed in Polish government's ministry's home page.
