The Dysfunctionality of Russian Higher Professional Education
Sheregi, F. E.
Russian Education and Society, v53 n4 p68-83 Apr 2011

Unless the universities educate people that employers need, Russia will lose even more skilled people through emigration. (Contains 9 notes.) [This article was translated by Kim Braithwaite.]
