DUSHANBE
, February 1, Asia-Plus – This year we plan to open
Small
Academy
at
Tajikistan
’s National Academy of Sciences, academician Mamadsho Ilolov, President of Tajikistan’s National Academy of Sciences, announced at a news conference in
Dushanbe
on January 1.
According to him senior pupils at secondary schools will be drawn into the work with the
Small
Academy
. “They will be given scientific titles as researchers at the National Academy of Sciences,” said academician Ilolov, “The will be trained by special programs at relevant departments and institutes of the National Academy of Sciences and on completion of the course, the best of them will be given an opportunity to enter any higher educational institution in the country without examinations.”
Mr. Ilolov also noted that next summer the Tajik Academy of Sciences would open its doors in welcome to youth and students who are interested in being engaged in scientific work.
On the structural changes within the National Academy of Sciences, academician Ilolov noted that over the past several years, a number of new research institutes such as the
Institute
of
Statistics
and the
Institute
of
Sate
and Law, had been established.
Dwelling on the expediency of the establishment of High Attestation Commission, he noted that
Tajikistan
’s
Academy
of
Science
has not yet had the strength to establish it. “For example, for 200 disciplines we need 800 people (four experts for each of them) therefore we still use services of the Russian High Attestation Commission,” Mr. Ilolov noted.
