YEREVAN, DECEMBER 21, NOYAN TAPAN. According to the results of the
sociological survey initiated by the Social-Democrat Hnchakian Party
in 2006 December at state universities of Armenia, in the opinion of
1821 out of 2000 respondent-students, there is corruption at Armenian
universities. This was mentioned in the report submitted to NT by the
party. It is also mentioned that according to the survey data, 96% of
250 respondent-students at Yerevan State Agrarian University answered
that there is corruption at the University. 83% of them confessed that
they have given bribe: they have paid 20 dollars for quizes and up to
50 dollars for exams. In the opinion of almost all students, lecturers
treat well students giving them bribe. The majority of students
interrogated at Yerevan Mkhitar Heratsi State Medical University also
answered that there is corruption in their University and they also
have given bribe to the lecturers. The prices are a little higher here:
the majority of students have given 200 dollars and more for exams and
100-200 dollars for quizes. The student council impeded the survey at
this University. 85.5% of 300 students interrogated at Yerevan State
Engineering University considers that there is corruption at their
University, but only 20% respondents personally have given bribe. 81%
respondents at the Economic University answered that the University
is corrupted. At a number of higher educational institutions, Yerevan
V.Brusov State Linguistic University, Yerevan State University, Academy
of Art, Yerevan State Conservatory and State Institute of Cinema and
Theater, a lower percent of students considers that there is bribery
at their educational institution. Almost all respondents propose
raising salaries of lecturers and making internal discipline stricter
at educational institutions as the best way of liquidating corruption.
