Two modules on artificial intelligence at basic and professional levels will become mandatory for all Russian universities as part of the transition to a new model of higher education.

The topic of artificial intelligence has been integrated into school curricula in computer science, labor, general education, biology and the environment, as well as in colleges, said the head of the Ministry of Education of the Russian Federation, Sergei Kravtsov.

The Ministry of Education of the Russian Federation has decided to create sovereign artificial intelligence in the field of education and is selecting a technology partner after the proposal of the laureate of the “Teacher of the Year 2026” competition.

A compulsory course on artificial intelligence and information security will be introduced in Russian schools for grades 5-11, said Minister of Education Sergei Kravtsov.

From 2027, applicants to Russian universities will be able to receive from 15 to 25 additional points for high Unified State Examination results in mathematics, physics, chemistry, computer science and biology, which were not used for admission. The initiative of the Ministry of Education and Science is aimed at strengthening the fundamental training of future engineers and will become part of the updated admission rules for the 2027/28 academic year.

French Education Minister Edouard Geffret said that about three thousand teachers will begin work in the coming hours in schools in the country, where a “very problematic” situation has developed. Thanks to a special program, 114 lyceums with “red status” and 400 with “orange” status were identified. Principals are allowed to hire additional teachers in excess of the limits, and schools will be allocated funds to pay for the additional workload under the “teacher pact” program. The measures are estimated to cost several million or tens of millions of euros. The decision comes amid protests by high school students who have been blocking educational institutions since mid-September.
