NESVIZH, 17 September (BelTA) - The education ministers of Belarus
and Armenia discussed a possibility to introduce university courses
which graduates will be awarded double diplomas, Armenian Education
and Science Minister Armen Ashotyan told a press conference in Nesvizh
on 17 September, BelTA has learnt.
"While visiting the Belarusian State University of Informatics and
Radioelectronics and the Belarusian State University we had a meeting
with Education Minister Sergei Maskevich and the administration of
the Belarusian universities. We discussed a possibility of awarding
double diplomas to Belarusian and Armenian students who opt for
certain training courses," Armen Ashotyan said. Such courses are
already available in Armenia with double diplomas awarded by Armenian
and German universities. Sergei Maskevich added that several leading
universities of Belarus have also offered this opportunity. "It is
quite possible that next year we will offer a training course which
graduates will get a double diploma," Sergei Maskevich noted.
The Education and Science Minister of Armenia noted that Armenia is
constantly reforming its education system. "Education is among the
unique social institutions that needs a constant upgrade, otherwise
there will hardly be any economic effect," Armen Ashotyan said. In
his words, Armenia has gained some experience in integrating into
European education space and Armenia will be glad to share these
practices with Belarusian educators. "We are ready to materialize
various joint projects in education and science," he concluded.
The delegation of the Education and Science Ministry of Armenia is
on an official visit to Belarus. The Armenian delegation has already
visited Belarusian universities, pre-school institution No. 4 in
Nesvizh and the Nesvizh Gymnasium.
