If you have a look at the SL's  IT industry, it's lead by those so called low quality government uni graduates from Mora, Pera, UCSC and ruhuna. If you have a look at a company like WSO2 or Virtusa, they do consulting to customers (those who've follwed degrees at Harvard etc) in US and european countries. Just at least visit some of those companies' websites and have a look at what they are doing. Those are totally sri lankan and majority is from govt unis.And the reason why there are no companies in some of the fields (mech, materials eng) is that there are no investors interested in putting up companies here due to the economic and political situation. Just think about it - engineers mostly 'work' for companies and investors/businessmen are the people who put up companies. Not having companies doesn't mean that there are no good engineers. In fact, there are many graduates who do higher studies (M.Sc./ Ph.D.) in those top ranked unis in abroad after graduating from govt unis. Also when you do  very well in A/L's u can get scholarships from top ranked unis abroad to do your studies, but most people prefer to stay here and go to mora/pera (at least in our time that happened - only one or two people went abroad) coz they are in SL and they prefer staying in this country. Yeah I can also confirm one thing - most of those APIIT and private uni students in SL most of the time 'outsource' their projects to govt uni students. I know this coz some of my friends at mora did those to earn some pocket money. <img src="/styles/default/xenforo/smilies/default/happy.gif"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":)" title="Happy    :)" data-shortname=":)" />another thing - when you say local unis don't have reputation abroad, i want to ask one question - do most of those foreign employers know even there's a country named sri lanka?unfortunately, most of the time the answer is 'no'. So you can figure out one big reason why our unis are not known abroad in the first place.I'm also from moratuwa so this may seem a bit biased - but I said what is obvious to anyone operating in these fields in SL.</blockquote>
