Donetsk, Jul 18 - DAN. Donetsk National University has become the fourth higher education centre in the Donetsk People’s Republic to receive a certificate of accreditation from the Russian Federal Service for Supervision of Education and Science, the DPR Education and Science Ministry reported on Thursday.
“Under Order No 103 of the Federal Service for Supervision of Education and Science, dated July 17, 2019, Donetsk National University (DonNU) is certified as accredited,” the report said.
The accreditation targeted the University’s degree programmes in eight fields such as mathematics, applied mathematics and informatics, computer science and hardware, pedagogical education, professional education (field-specific), environmental protection, use of natural resources, biology and chemistry.
