Our new educational institution is based on the national pedagogical
heritage, while it also seeks to adapt and incorporate European and American educational
traditions. An international team of leading Belarusian scholars and visiting
professors from famous American and European universities has been formed at the
University. The faculty and staff of the EHU are united by a common understanding
of both the perspectives of the European culture and current problems of our civilization.
Some of these academics have a worldwide reputation and it is hard to overestimate
their contribution to the University. |
