The Ministry of Finance suggests that the Ministry of Education should cancel scholarship for students, Deputy Head of Parliamentary Committee for Education and Science Alexander Spivakovskii said, Correspondent.net reports.
According to Spivakovskii, it is suggested that the master’s degree program should be on a contract basis. “The Parliamentary Committee speaks out against reduction of budgetary funding of the educational system”, he emphasized.
Meanwhile, the edition’s sources, which are familiar with the situation, confirm that currently the question of creation of two scholarships – social and academic – is being discussed. The first one cannot be less than the minimum living wage in the country, while the second will, first of all, depend on the academic performance.
Previously the Ministry of Education informed that 50% of students, who were enrolled this year, will be able to study on a budgetary basis.
