Diplomas of graduates of 500 foreign universities will be automatically recognized in Azerbaijan, Samir Valiyev, head of the Education Ministry’s department of accreditation and nostrification, told APA.

According to him, the department of accreditation and nostrification has developed new rules for nostrification.

He said that the new rules will soon be submitted to the government for approval.

“According to the new rules, the list of 500 foreign universities will be published. Diplomas of the graduates of those universities will be automatically recognized in Azerbaijan,” said Valiyev.

He added that diplomas of graduates of unlisted foreign universities will be nostrified after they pass special exams to be organized by the State Examination Center.

“Our goal is to have an Azerbaijani citizen educated in a more respectable university with a high rating. We do not deny the diplomas granted by unlisted universities. However, according to the new rules, diplomas of graduates of other universities will only be recognized after they pass special exams that are intended to be held twice a month. No more interviews will be held after these exams. These exams will be enough for a person to confirm his knowledge and get his/her diploma recognized,” the department head said.
