ACT established scholarship for four students of Sociology and Public Relations at Ilia State University Georgia during the 2017-2018 spring-fall semester. The awarding ceremony of the selected students was held on Friday, March 31 in “Ligamus”.

This initiative on the part of ACT sets an important precedent for a private company-public university cooperation. Within the framework of the cooperation, in addition to a scholarship, the improvement of professional skills development components and internships within the sociology and public relations programs is planned. This will serve as a step ahead for the University in meeting the obligations undertaken under “The Document on the Standards on Ensuring the Quality of High Education in Europe”.

This significant project was realized with the aid of our partner companies. Thank you for your cooperation! For ACT, as the leader of the Georgian research market, it is extremely important to promote the field and thus continues its care for education.
