“Taking the situation into account, we intend to take some measures. First of all, works are underway to form and improve legislation on PhD, organize PhD education and prepare normative legal documents defining its content, develop and confirm education programs, adjust PhD education to the Bologna process and enhance the quality of education, and apply per capita financing. Our current education system must be able to produce adroit personnel who would be capable of learning throughout their life,” the minister concluded.
