Пашинян в Нью-Йорке обсудил возможности сотрудничества с Массачусетским технологическим институтом в реализации проекта "Академгород"

АрмИнфо.  Премьер-министр Армении Никол Пашинян на встрече с академическим директором Массачусетского технологического института профессором Анантом Чандракасани коснулся

правительственного проекта "Академический город" и подчеркнул важность возможного сотрудничества и обмена опытом с Массачусетским технологическим институтом в реализации этого проекта.

Как сообщает пресс-служба правительства Армении, в этом контексте были обсуждены детали проекта "Академический город", его ход и предстоящие мероприятия.

Чандракасани приветствовала реализацию проекта и выразила готовность к сотрудничеству с армянскими партнерами, обмену опытом и возможностями.

Состоялся обмен мнениями о шагах, направленных на развитие высшего образования.

Напомним, что генплан городка разработала немецкая компания gmp International GmbH Architects and Engineers. Он будет возведен на территории, прилегающей к 17 кварталу Еревана. Правительство Армении 4 января прошлого года приняло проект постановления "О признании приоритетного общественного интереса в отношении определенных территорий, расположенных в административных границах города Еревана и населенного пункта Сасуник общины Аштарак Арагацотнской области", в целях строительства Академического городка.  Территория ереванского 17-го квартала, в границах которого расположены земельные участки, находящиеся в собственности государства и общины, а также земельные участки, принадлежащие физическим и юридическим лицам, а также территория, занимаемая киностудией "Айфильм" им.  Амо Бекназаряна будут переданы фонду "Академический город".

21 апреля 2023 года был создан фонд "Академического городка". 19 октября прошлого года кабмин утвердил концепцию программы "Академический городок".  Министр образования, науки, культуры и спорта Армении Жанна Андресян, представляя проект, заявляла, что, согласно государственной программе развития Армении до 2030 года, планируется создать Академический городок, как современную среду для качественного образования и исследований. Андреасян сообщала, что на территории Академгородка будут размещены до 16 вузов - до 8 государственных укрупненных и до 8 частных или международных высших учебных заведений. Строительство Академического города обойдется в 1,2 трлн драмов.
