Political scientist Piotr Petrovsky said on the air of Alfa Radio on February 15 that an advertisement for studying abroad amused him.
“I noticed that propaganda has started promotion on some social networks.
You may just see advertising posts calling “move there, go here. I laughed very hard: “Go to Poland to study polytechnic jobs.” These specialties are poorly developed in their country, they have no industry and have no demand. What does it mean? This means what the Germans say: “Go to Poland, and then, come to us to clean the toilets.” <...>
Not only is our technical education no worse, but it also is better in many aspects, I'd say.
Look at our buses, electric buses — all of these are Belarusian developments,” he said on the talk show “Budni”.
Polish universities are not as prestigious as ones from Western Europe. The leading Polish technical university, Warsaw University of Technology, ranks 571 in the World University rankings. While the Belarusian National Technical University is somewhere from 801 to 850 lines.
BSU is considered the best of Belarusian universities. The HEI is in 387th place in the World ranking. BSU is inferior to the University of Warsaw, which is the best Polish university, by 120 lines in this classification.
