Today the fourth round day of “Reforms in universities by cooperation. Tempus project” was held in the Yerevan State University. 54 countries are involved in the project and 27 of them are European Union countries, and the rest countries of Middle East, Balkan, Easter Europe and Mediterranean. Armenia is also involved in the project.

The project covers educational reforms and structural projects which involve structural society and education, topical nets, and organizational reforms and public sectors. The mission of the project is the cooperation of the current countries in the labor market and universities.

”We are intended to make the Armenia of 2010 country of educational projects,” said Levon Mkrtchyan the minister of education and science. He added that national reform of qualities should be drafted and showed to the world.

According to the minister there is no other choice and the reform should be principle one. The other reform concerns the professors’ staff. “We must bring the education together with the science and the professor who made a paper late in 60th can not give the same to the youth,” he said.

The rector of the YSU Aram Simonyan said that due to the current project a faculty of social work is opened in the university which serves as a positive example to other regional countries.

The Ambassador and the representative of the European delegation Raul de Luzenberger said that it is obvious Armenia is long to make the reforms in the educational filed.
