In Minsk there has established a new educational institution – National University named after Nil Gilevich. If it receives an appropriate license – it will start working on September. The university is humanitarian where there are 56 specialties; translators, journalists, managers, historians, archeologists are some of them.
A highlight of the university is that teaching is exclusively in the Belarus language because nowadays the language is used only in historical scientific researches. After the years of russification, just 13% of all pupils of the country study in their mother tongue.
