    20:56 - 08.12.12


    Armenian Minister of Diaspora Hranush Hakobyan and Rector of the
    Yerevan State University (YSU) Aram Simonyan have signed a
    scientific-cultural and educational collaboration agreement for the
    coming five years.

    The deal necessitates contractual procedures for the order and
    publication of educational resources, fiction and research themes, as
    well as the join elaboration and organization of different events in
    Armenia and the diaspora.

    According to a press release by the Ministry of Diaspora, the
    agreement also envisages symposiums and conferences, as well as
    internship opportunities for students. The YSU will continue its
    master's programs and summer schools in diaspora studies

    Considering the move an important landmark, the minister pointed out
    to three key trends of the continuing collaboration - the opening of a
    diaspora studies chair at the University, the joint organization of
    all the important conferences, and the joint research.

    `For us, the mother university has become the source center that the
    Ministry has been collaborating with since inception,' said the
    minister, praising particularly the YSU's efforts to record the
    history of the diaspora communities.

    The YSU rector noted for his part that their institution is very
    serious about the joint activities. `We have passed a short, though
    versatile path. I thinks the achievements help create a completely new
    level of collaboration. It is commendable to see new circles of
    professors and students becoming part of the collaboration efforts,'
    he said.
