EDUCATION, RESEARCH & DEVELOPMENT Sample Clauses

EDUCATION, RESEARCH & DEVELOPMENT. The process of educational development as a whole in the cross-border eligible area is bound with the established network of educational institutions at all educational levels (primary, secondary and higher). The existing basis has an optimal structure for ensuring the necessary general and higher education. A continuous tendency exists for increasing qualification and education level of the population, which is an opportunity for attraction of more foreign investments, as well as diversification of economy. On the other hand, there are villages where the decreasing number of children (by demographic, but also by economic reasons) endangers closure of schools. Furthermore, the infrastructure at all levels of education is old and inadequate. The most serious shortcomings can be found in the area of information technologies and foreign language competences. Most of the R&D in the cross-border region is conducted at the faculties in Stip and the universities in Blagoevgrad, as well as in the sector oriented research institutes for agriculture. The number of schools in the Bulgaria side of the region is 239, from which 193 are general schools; 10 are special schools and 3 are self-dependent colleges and universities. The South-Western University and the American University are situated in Blagoevgrad, several technical and medical colleges, as well as the Tourism College in Bansko and the Fruit-Growing Research Institute in Kyustendil. In the border area of the fYRoM there are 257 primary schools (23% of the total number of schools in the country), 21 secondary schools (20% of the total of the country) and 2 higher educational institutions – the Faculty of Mining and the Faculty of Pedagogy in Stip, and the Institute for South Agricultural Products in Strumica.
