In 2014, the state program “Global Education” was launched, which provides funds for studying abroad to international students who entered leading universities abroad. A prerequisite for financing is self-admission to the best world universities, which confirms the high level of motivation, independence, and intellectual abilities of students. The goal of the program is to increase the number of highly educated specialists in the field of science, pedagogy, medicine, engineering, and management. The program provides for the subsequent employment of graduates in international companies and mandatory education for 3 years. Employers are foreign universities, research institutes, medical institutions, social organizations, government agencies, business, and high-tech companies.
Global Education is an excellent opportunity for capable students and professionals to gain experience of study and internship abroad, to apply it in international companies without the need to take educational loans. A great advantage of the program is that the funds are provided for payment of education, accommodation, student meals.
Key figures of the program:
- 32 countries
- 288 educational organizations
- 32 specialties
- 708 program participants
- 11 graduates
- 360 employed participants.
