The University guarantees equal access to education without any discrimination. Applicants from vulnerable categories (orphans, internally displaced persons, people with disabilities, etc., i.e. persons with fewer opporunuities) receive social scholarships, and dual education is being implemented at the NUWEE, enabling working youth to move up the career ladder and become financially stable members of society. For the same purpose, individual study plans are used for some students to combine work and study. The scientific library provides students and teachers with free access to literature and the Internet. The Center for Career Development and Entrepreneurship Support has been established to help students find jobs. NUWEE strives to provide students with fewer opportunities the access to educational materials in the most convenient format for them; cooperates with all departments in the development and implementation of inclusive policies at our university and beyond. Each academic group has its own curator who accompanies them throughout their studies and helps them overcome various problems.
