On November 16, Armenian Minister of Education and Science Armen Ashotyan briefed journalists on studyinarmenia.org portal project launched by the Ministry.

The Minister stressed the necessity of attracting foreign students due Armenia’s being a leader in education sector among CIS countries.

“We have never had a comprehensive website in English helping foreign applicants to familiarize with higher education institutions in Armenia and studying conditions. For this reason, Ministry of Education and Science has released a handbook titled Higher Education in Armenia,” he said.

Studyinarmenia.org also operates by amhe.am domain. The website comprises information on Armenia’s higher education institutions, Bologna Process, scholarships, photos and blogs.

According to Ashotyan, not only foreigners but also representatives of Armenian Diaspora can benefit from the newly created portal.
