The author presents the evolution of higher education in Angola, since its implementation in 1962 until the present, with 140,000 students at the graduate level. The network of higher education institutions counts now 17 universities (10 of which are private), 19 colleges (including 12 private) and two autonomous schools (both state). The question that the author presents is: how this growth was accompanied by the corresponding attention to the quality of higher education? The answer to this question is negative, because there are several indicators that point to the promotion of mediocrity and lack of concern with scientific research, beyond the possibility of obtaining diplomas without the necessary academic and professional competence. But the problem comes from lower levels of education.
