Abstract :
Regional trends of depopulation due to lower
rate of fertility and mechanical depopulation by
migration are characteristic of the region and
Macedonian society. In the last 30 years there has been a
decrease of newly born children in Republic of
Macedonia, from 31,751 in 1994 to 19,986 newly born in
2019. The mentioned indicators greatly influence the
present and future number of potential students. In Stip
the number of newborn in 2019 is 398. In this paper
focus is on student population in the University Goce
Delcev - Stip in the last two academic years. In the
coming period, universities and the competent
institutions can change the future of every child, if they
commit the same level of enthusiasm and resources they
have made available to other sectors such as health.
Also, this paper refers to three topics: student
population in the University Goce Delcev Shtip;
population in Shtip according to newborns;
opportunities and challenges.
To function in tomorrow's society, students need to
develop the skill of being able to make reflective
assessments. Through this skill they will form the lasting
foundation of careers and meaningful lives in a world in
which artificial intelligence and global competition are
becoming increasingly prevalent. In fact, fostering this
ability requires a student-centered approach to higher
education.
