Fedir Vashchuk is still thinking whether to apply for participation in the election of the rector

November 5, the Ministry of Education announced a competition for the post of rector of Uzhgorod National University. Applications will be accepted for two weeks starting from the date of the announcement. According to the official website of the Ministry, "the competition is open to citizens of Ukraine who are fluent in Ukrainian, have academic rank of professor, doctorate or PhD degree and not less than ten years of experience in scientific and educational activities."

Trying to find out how many candidates have already declared their willingness to head the largest university of the region we called the hotline of the Ministry of Education. They refused to provide such information saying that applications should be discussed by the university staff. Only after that we will know whether the candidates will be able to participate in elections. The date of voting was not informed either.

Acting. Rector of UzhNU Fedir Vashchuk said that he has not yet filed an application. When asked whether he is going to, he replied that he is still thinking about it. Also Fedir Vashchuk added that he does not know when the election will be held since the date is appointed by the Ministry.
