The acceptance of documents for participation in the competition for the position of President of the State University "Kyiv Aviation Institute" (KAI, formerly - NAU) has been completed.
This was announced by the Chairman of the Supervisory Board of the KAI Petro Chernyshov.
8 candidates will participate in the competition, 6 of whom have agreed to have their names made public.
As Chernyshov explains, not disclosing their names is the legal right of the participants. “The reasons are absolutely logical: the desire to avoid unnecessary pressure at work, the reluctance to prematurely publicize among colleagues or partners, as well as the desire to avoid conjecture and speculation until the moment when their participation becomes effective,” adds the Chairman of the Supervisory Board.
The names of all finalists will be announced later.
So, today there are 6 known participants:
The competition is held in accordance with the Cabinet of Ministers' resolution "On the implementation of a pilot project on the development of the autonomy of some higher education institutions."
According to Chernyshov, interviews with candidates will take place by the end of August. Then the Supervisory Board will discuss each one and hold a secret vote. Whoever gets the majority will become the President.
"We want to behave like a proper Western corporation — by the way, when they hold a competition for the rector of a university, say in America — everything is the same as in a corporation. Let's just learn the right standards," notes the Chairman of the Supervisory Board.
