In July 2009 Ukrainian Education and Science Ministry predicts that one third of Ukrainian universities will be liquidated by 2013. Merger, Tough competition, the quality of education, the reduction in the number of school leavers were the reasons given for the reduction of the number of universities in Ukraine.

The main distinction between university and academy is that university is multi-disciplinary and often autonomous institution, while academy is more specialized. The universities may be also oriented as technological, medical, and, on a rare occasion, pedagogical.

Famous quotes containing the words list of, list and/or universities:

    Shea—they call him Scholar Jack—
    Went down the list of the dead.
    Officers, seamen, gunners, marines,
    The crews of the gig and yawl,
    The bearded man and the lad in his teens,
    Carpenters, coal-passers—all.
    Joseph I. C. Clarke (1846–1925)

    We saw the machinery where murderers are now executed. Seven have been executed. The plan is better than the old one. It is quietly done. Only a few, at the most about thirty or forty, can witness [an execution]. It excites nobody outside of the list permitted to attend. I think the time for capital punishment has passed. I would abolish it. But while it lasts this is the best mode.
    Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)

    In universities and intellectual circles, academics can guarantee themselves popularity—or, which is just as satisfying, unpopularity—by being opinionated rather than by being learned.
    —A.N. (Andrew Norman)
