Tatarstan education system is one of the most progressive in Russia. The Russian Federation Minister of Education and Science Andrei Fursenko stated it at a meeting with the republican universities’ rectors on April 24 in Kazan.

Tatarstan Minister of Education and Science Albert Gilmutdinov, Chairman of Tatarstan Rectors Council – Kazan State University Rector Myakzyum Salakhov and other officials took part in the meeting.

In the minister’s opinion, our republic’s system of education has been well-prepared for the changes in this field. A.
