Today, Deputy Minister of Science and Education Ara Avetisyan said
at a press- conference that while holding reforms in the spheres of
education and science Armenia gives much importance to the foreign
experience, and the Ministry of Science and Education has also studied
the educational systems of foreign states.
He reminded that on July 24, 2006, on the Armenian President's
instructions, an interdepartmental commission was established for
realizing scientific reforms. The members of the commission are
representatives of the Armenian governmental and presidential staffs,
the National Academy of Sciences, the Ministries of Finances and
Economy, Trade and Economic Development, Science and Education. 3
working groups were set up, which prepared the draft reforms in the
sphere of science. In the near future, the draft reforms will be put
to public discussion. Ara Avetisyan said that 2 of the working groups
will visit Hungary and Czech Republic, and the third one will visit
Lithuania and Poland. They will study the mechanisms of governing,
as well as the ways and sizes of financing science. He emphasized that
Hungary and Czech Republic have a more Soviet structure of science and
reforms, therefore their experience can help the Armenian scientific
system in many respects.
Ara Avetisyan noted that the Armenian Government has approved the
list and schedule of activities in the sphere of science. The main
tasks of the scientific reforms are to create a united system of
governance, to increase the efficiency of scientific organizations,
to realize infrastructure and a material and technical basis in
the sphere of education, to increase the efficiency of financing,
to integrate science and education.
