    YEREVAN, September 26, /Ð?RÐ?Ð?/. Yerevan State University rector Aram
    Simonyan unveiled today am ambitious plan of turning Armenia's
    state-run university into `a global research university' in 25 years.

    `We want to become a university of global importance,' the rector told
    journalists Friday. According to him, Russia has two such
    universities-the Moscow State University and the Saint Petersburg State
    University. Aram Simonyan admitted that the quality of education at
    Yerevan State University is not up to standards.

    `We need to constantly perfect the quality of education and a lot is
    being done to this end¦ I can say that no other Armenian university is
    doing as much as we do,' he said.

    `Education is an expensive pleasure and we need enough resources to
    solve many organizational issues,' he said.
