Amendments to the rules for admission to the master studies

The Cabinet of Ministers made amendments to the “Rules for admission to the master studies of higher educational institutions and Azerbaijan National Academy of Sciences”.

In this regard, Prime Minister Ali Asadov signed a decree.

According to the decree, as in international practice, admission to the master studies will consist of only one stage – an assessment of the general level of intelligence (logical thinking), knowledge of computer science and a foreign language.

Noted that at the present time entrance examinations to the master’s program are held in two stages – assessment of the general level of intelligence (logical thinking), knowledge of computer science and a foreign language, and assessment of knowledge in the specialties.

According to the amendment, entrance examinations to the master’s program will be carried out by the State Examination Center at one stage to assess the level of general intelligence (logical thinking), knowledge of computer science and foreign language proficiency of bachelors.

According to the change, in order to choose a specialization in professions that require special abilities, from now on, it will be taken into account not whether the result of the examination to identify skills in the competition conditions, but to receive a “credit” in this exam, as is customary when choosing a specialization in the journalism specialty.
