OUR INSTITUTE

1. Every citizen in our Republic has the right to education. This right is guaranteed by the Constitution.

After finishing school, some young people may want to continue their education. There are different kinds of higher educational institutions for them: state and non-state ones. The Institute of Parliamentarism and Entrepreneuship is among them. It is not very large yet, but it is already known in the Republic for training highly-qualified specialists in different fields of our national economy.

2. The Institute is rather new. It was founded only in 1993. There is one faculty in it: Socio-Economic one which covers a lot of specialities: a lawyer, a specialist in political sciences, a business-administrator, an economist and others. Today our Institute is a collective member and representative of the International Staff Academy in the Republic of Belarus. It is also a co-founder of the International Educational Consortium located in Prague. The motto of our Institute is DOCEMUS VIVERE - we teach to live. Our emblem is an elk – a symbol of wise power.

3. Every day our students listen to lectures given by professors, assistant professors and lecturers and have various classes, foreign languages including. Foreign languages lessons cover grammar, vocabulary, speaking and listening skills, reading and writing. Advanced students in every speciality work in close connection with the teaching staff and are engaged in research work.

4. The academic year begins on the first of September and ends in June. It has two terms: the autumn term and the spring term. Each term ends with examinations which take place in January and in June. During the academic year students work hard. Attendance at lectures is compulsory. Our students go to the Institute every day except Sunday.

5. About fifty per cent of our students prefer correspondent training because they live and work far from the Institute and they don’t want to leave their jobs at enterprises and firms and at various state and private institutions. Twice a year they come to the Institute to attend lectures or classes and to take their examinations.

6. I have also entered this Institute and I am a day-time student at the Socio-Economic faculty. We have everything necessary for our studying. The Institute enjoys good premises which comprise modern computer classes equipped with electronic means of communication; ling-guaphone classrooms with audio- and video-equipment which promote intensive foreign languages learning; classrooms, lecture halls, conference halls, a library, a publishing center, a gymnasium, and a cafй’. Our class-rooms and lecture-halls are large enough, well-lighted and clean. We are taught a lot of subjects and we do our best to cope with them. Only at the week-end we have some free time which each student arranges to suit him best. I have always dreamed of getting higher education. Now this dream is coming true.
