The cost of feeding students is 15 times the research budget of universities.
The Deputy Research Minister for Science criticized the disproportionality of this allocation, pointing to the difference between student nutrition and university research points.
He announced that today about 22 percent of the credits are invested in feeding students, while the research portion is only about one and a half percent.
The Deputy Minister of Science also said that in addition to requirements such as improving the quality of education and strengthening research support, a significant portion of student requests is devoted to issues such as dormitories and nutrition.
