Tashkent, Uzbekistan (UzDaily.com) -- Knowledge of foreign languages is important in studying the achievements of world science, mastering the accumulated international experience. That is why today students studying in higher educational institutions of our country are required to be fluent in foreign languages. This was reported by the press service of the Ministry of Health.

Today, among the students operating in the country’s 11 higher medical schools, there are many students who have an IELTS certificate with a score of 7.5 or higher, as well as an international certificate confirming knowledge of German or French at the C1 level.

Naturally, they have a great chance of getting a grant at universities that occupy high positions in the world rankings.

Minister of Health Amrillo Inoyatov, at a meeting with the participation of activists of the sphere, announced changes to the current procedure and the introduction of a system for paying the minister’s scholarship for such gifted students.

- The establishment of this scholarship will be a motivation for other students who will also strive to achieve such high results, - said A. Inoyatov. “At the same time, it is necessary that the rectors of medical universities pay special attention to gifted students, and the teachers of each department provide support to future young specialists.

It was noted that the legal basis for the introduction of this innovation will be developed in the near future.
