The delegation engaged in discussions with representatives of Azerbaijan Technological University, Ganja State University (GSU), Azerbaijan State Agricultural University (ASAU), as well as with students and teachers at Ganja\u2019s No. 27 Physics, Mathematics, and Informatics Lyceum and No. 11 Secondary School.<\/p>\n<p>The initial meetings were conducted in secondary schools. During these sessions, Rector Professor Adalat Muradov emphasized that the primary objective of the project is to cultivate an interest in science among children from an early age and to raise their awareness of the beauty and significance of science. He underscored that this initiative not only encourages students to pursue scientific endeavors but also provides them with valuable opportunities to explore diverse scientific disciplines and gain comprehensive information about potential career pathways in these fields.<\/p>\n<p>Subsequently, Professor Misir Mardanov and Academician Nizami Jafarov delivered engaging presentations to the students, elucidating the role of science in society. The scholars articulated their perspectives on the development of science and the enhancement of education, urging students to deepen their knowledge and aspire to successful careers in scientific domains.<\/p>\n<p>During the meeting, Professor Misir Mardanov proposed several initiatives aimed at supporting young scientific talent. He advocated for the early identification of students\u2019 scientific abilities and emphasized the importance of providing institutional support to nurture their potential. Mardanov highlighted that such measures would contribute to the training of highly qualified professionals in scientific and technological fields, thereby strengthening the country\u2019s scientific landscape.<\/p>\n<p>Furthermore, Professor Mardanov underscored the necessity of organizing subject-specific Olympiads for students, coordinated by higher education institutions. He suggested that students who achieve success in these Olympiads should be granted exemptions from the corresponding subject examinations upon admission to the respective universities.<\/p>\n<p>In his remarks, Rector Professor Adalat Muradov proposed showcasing talented students\u2019 startups and innovative projects at UNEC\u2019s annual \u201cScience Festival\u201d, traditionally held in commemoration of Science Day. He noted that this initiative would foster closer collaboration between universities and secondary schools. Additionally, Professor Muradov suggested organizing \u201cOpen Laboratory Days\u201d at UNEC, offering talented students the opportunity to conduct scientific experiments alongside leading researchers.<\/p>\n<p>As part of the visit to Ganja, the delegation also held meetings at higher education institutions within the framework of the \u201cPopularization of Science\u201d initiative.<\/p>\n<p>The delegation participated in the inauguration of the Virtual Learning and Simulation Laboratory at Azerbaijan Technological University. Established as part of the \u201cREFRESH\u201d project\u2014coordinated by UNEC with the support of the European Union and in partnership with ATU\u2014the laboratory is designed to enhance the knowledge and practical skills of students specializing in Environmental Engineering and to facilitate ecological monitoring activities.<\/p>\n<p>During meetings at Ganja State University, Azerbaijan State Agricultural University, and Azerbaijan Technological University, Rector Professor Adalat Muradov provided an overview of UNEC\u2019s initiatives aimed at promoting science and presented the results achieved thus far. He emphasized the critical importance of advancing science to ensure its effective popularization in the country and encouraged higher education institutions to collaborate closely in this regard.<\/p>\n<p>Extensive discussions were held regarding the enhancement of cooperation among higher education institutions. The parties reached agreements on assessing the material and technical resources and human capital of scientific research centers at regional universities, implementing joint scientific research projects, and co-authoring scientific articles.<\/p>\n<p>Additionally, the participants exchanged views on restructuring doctoral education, adopting differentiated approaches to support faculty members with high research potential, and improving the quality of the teaching process.<\/p>\n<p>As part of the visit, more than 100 scientific books were donated to the participating schools and universities.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Within the framework of the initiatives titled \u201cPopularization of Science\u201d and \u201cScience is Beautiful: From School to Science\u201d implemented by the Azerbaijan State University of Economics (UNEC), a series of meetings were held in the city of Ganja.
