All of them are divided into two groups: the former will receive both federal and regional co -financing, the latter - audit and expert support of the federal center, and subsidies only from regional budgets.

Universities who have fallen into the program in the next three months should submit to the Ministry of Education and Science a five -year development program, to which they will receive an additional subsidy.
