5 interesting facts about the Minister of Science and higher education(this is new) 16 years in finance and only four years in science “Stunning!”: how the RAS reacted to Kotyukov
We, citizens of Russia, will, of course, see who is who and what will come of it... But we still need to know some preliminary information about the new appointee of the new ministry.

Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev announced the composition of the new government. The Ministry of Education was headed by Olga Vasilyeva, and the Ministry of Science and Higher Education was headed by 41-year-old Mikhail Kotyukov, head Federal agency scientific organizations (FANO). Here are some interesting facts about the new minister Kotyukov.

So, 5 facts

1. Got into politics thanks to my teacher

Mikhail Kotyukov graduated from Krasnoyarsk state university(KSU) with a degree in finance and credit in 1999. His managerial career began there. KSU Dean Valery Zubov was elected governor Krasnoyarsk Territory, and he decided to conduct an experiment - to involve his young students in management. Mikhail Kotyukov was among those who were offered a post in the regional administration. While still in his third year, he became the chief economist of the credit department of the Financial Directorate of the Krasnoyarsk Territory Administration. By the end of his training, he was appointed head of the control and audit department of the Financial Administration.

2. I spent 16 years in finance and only four years in science.

IN different times Mikhail Kotyukov worked in the administration of the Krasnoyarsk Territory, was engaged in private business, and was deputy governor and minister of finance of the Krasnoyarsk Territory. In 2012, he became Deputy Minister of Finance of Russia Anton Siluanov. A year later, Dmitry Medvedev appointed him head of the Federal Agency for Scientific Organizations (FANO), created as part of the reform of the Russian Academy of Sciences. There were those who were perplexed why Kotyukov was appointed to such a post. Some believe that his candidacy was promoted by Olga Golodets, who oversaw the reform of the Russian Academy of Sciences, and before that worked with him in the Krasnoyarsk Territory.

3. Became head of FANO at age 36

The Federal Agency for Scientific Organizations appeared in 2013 as part of the reform Russian Academy Sciences (RAN). Until 2018, FANO led scientific organizations, but on May 15 of this year the agency was abolished - it will become part of the new Ministry of Science and Higher Education. When FANO was first created, many scientists were extremely skeptical - they did not like the fact that FANO would be led by a person who had nothing to do with science. In addition, they were afraid that after the reform there would be more bureaucracy. Summing up the results of Mikhail Kotyukov’s work, some scientists say that they expected the worst. Others believe that the activities of FANO still had a negative impact on the scientific community.

4. For four months he was vice-rector of the Siberian Federal University

And this is all that connected Mikhail Kotyukov with science before he was appointed head of the Federal Agency for Scientific Organizations. He served as Vice-Rector for Economics and Finance from March to July 2007. Former colleagues claim that Kotyukov “left a bright and indelible mark on the university.”

5. Almost nothing is known about his personal life.

Kotyukov’s colleagues recall that he was always a non-public person - he could talk about work as much as he wanted, but never about his personal life. It is known that Mikhail Kotyukov has a wife, son and daughter. The editor of the Krasnoyarsk newspaper Konkurent, Igor Rudik, describes the official as a “tall, athletic, charismatic” man with a “reputation as a child prodigy.” According to Rudik, in one of his interviews Kotyukov admitted that he grew up in quite poor family without a father - his grandmother and mother were involved in his upbringing.

On May 15, Vladimir Putin issued a decree according to which the Ministry of Education and Science will be divided into two departments: the Ministry of Education and the Ministry of Science and Higher Education. The first department will be responsible for school and secondary special education, and the second - for the development of universities, science and nanotechnology.

“Stunning!”

The current head of the Federal Agency for Scientific Organizations, Mikhail Kotyukov, will become the Minister of Science and Higher Education of Russia. Russian President Vladimir Putin agreed on the personalities of all ministers and government deputies proposed by the head of the Cabinet of Ministers.

One of the main changes in the structure of the government, which became known on May 15, was the division of the Ministry of Education and Science into the Ministry of Education and the Ministry of Higher Education and Science. The corresponding draft structure of the new government was presented to the president in the evening by Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev.

The competence of the Ministry of Education will include issues general education, while the second department will be responsible for higher educational institutions and the development of science in general. As the prime minister explained, such a decision “will allow us to better concentrate our capabilities for the development of one education system and another education system.”

From the goals and objectives of the new ministry it follows that its activities will be divided into two parts: supervision of university and academic sciences.

Therefore, the pressing question now is how these flows of funds will be reformatted.”

According to the expert, Mikhail Kotyukov will be helped in his new position by his interdisciplinary and diverse experience in previous positions. “He also worked at a university, he understands the mechanics and features of university management from the inside, on the other hand, he worked as a manager in social sphere, working in the Ministry of Finance, continues Leshukov. — And finally, for the last few years he has had a difficult job at FANO, where he had to communicate with various representatives of science in our country: academicians, officials, and university science. This wide experience should be of benefit, since the tasks before him are complex.

— to build cooperation between academic and university science.”

Traditionally, the figure of Mikhail Kotyukov from academic science has aroused more critical opinions. After all, for the last four years, it was FANO that has been in charge of the operational management of universities, which, as part of the RAS reform, moved away from the Academy of Sciences. And most scientists say that with the arrival of FANO, the amount of paperwork and problems with bureaucracy has increased for them.

“Stunning! “An amazing option,” one of the academicians interviewed by Gazeta.Ru sincerely exclaimed upon learning of Kotyukov’s appointment. “It is, of course, a disgrace to appoint a person with a financial background who has never worked in science as head of the Ministry of Science and Higher Education!”

This is complete nonsense. He doesn’t understand what science is; he needs to work in it for a certain number of years to understand what kind of field of activity it is.

But still this is not the worst option. The cautious positivity stems from the fact that at least he listened to the scientists. He fully listened to the opinion of the Scientific Coordination Council of FANO, he understood his shortcomings in terms of education and experience, that is, he is a trainable person.”

According to a scientist who agreed to speak with Gazeta.Ru on condition of anonymity, it is “not very harmful” for a minister of this caliber to have an international reputation—and not a managerial one, but a scientific one. “Imagine - he will steer Russia’s participation in international scientific projects. You have to understand what kind of projects these are!” - he added.

Earlier, Vice-President of the Russian Academy of Sciences, Academician Alexey Khokhlov, reacted positively to the news of the division of the Ministry of Education and Science. “Of course, I see some advantages in this; I have repeatedly said that I will support any reorganization scheme if universities and scientific institutes will be in the same department. This is what happened, and I am very satisfied with this,” said the academician. “Science requires an influx of new personnel, so it is closely related to higher education. The separation went the right way. After all high school, kindergartens, nurseries - these are still special issues, and let the Ministry of Education deal with this, although there are also issues related to higher education, because we have schools and colleges at universities. But, nevertheless, these issues can be resolved within the framework of two departments.”

“I have great respect for Mikhail Kotyukov. He is certainly a qualified person with a state mind, and I understand that he is squeezed within certain limits,” said Mikhail Marov, academician, head of the department of planetary research and cosmochemistry at the Institute of Geochemistry and analytical chemistry RAS

Earlier, by decree, the President of Russia abolished the Federal Agency of Scientific Organizations (FANO), transferring its functions to the Ministry of Higher Education and Science of the Russian Federation.

From now on, the functions of managing academic institutions are transferred to the Ministry of Science and Higher Education. The main tasks to be solved by this Ministry are formulated in the presidential decree.

In particular, this is a 50% update of the instrument base and the creation in Russia of at least fifteen world-class research and educational centers with the participation of innovative enterprises that produce final products.

“I think the new ministry will concentrate on fulfilling these tasks. But still we must not forget that the most important sector of science is academic science. She must preserve her identity, and I hope she will preserve it,” Khokhlov is sure.

The current Ministry of Education and Science was created in 2004 and is the legal successor of the Ministry of Education, transformed in 1999 from the Ministry of Education and Science of the Russian Federation. Until 1996, primary and secondary education was managed by the Ministry of Education, and higher and postgraduate education and science by the State Committee for Higher Education.

Previously, the current deputy head of the Ministry of Education and Science, Academician Grigory Trubnikov, and the head of the Russian Science Foundation, Alexander Khlunov, were named as candidates for the post of Minister of Science.

The latter was reorganized (by transferring to it issues high school from the Ministry of Education) from the Ministry of Science and Technical Policy of the RSFSR, which existed for only two weeks in November 1991, which united the departments of the USSR and the RSFSR: the RSFSR State Committee for Science and Higher Education, the USSR State Committee for Science and Technology. The Ministry of Education of the RSFSR (later the Russian Federation), created in 1988 (with the merger of the Ministry of Education of the RSFSR and the RSFSR State Committee for Vocational Education), became the legal successor during the collapse of the USSR in 1991:

• USSR State Committee for public education(−), formed as a result of the merger of three ministries of the USSR:
  • Ministry of Higher and Secondary Special Education of the USSR (Ministry of Higher Education of the USSR)
  • Ministry of Vocational and Technical Education of the USSR.

The Ministry was formed during the creation of the first Fradkov government by Decree of the President of the Russian Federation No. 314 of March 9, 2004. It received the functions of adopting regulations of the Ministry of Education of the Russian Federation, abolished by the same decree, as well as the functions of adopting regulations of the abolished Ministry of Industry, Science and Technology of the Russian Federation (in the field of science) and the reorganized Russian Trademark Agency.

At the same time, the functions of law enforcement, management and control in the fields of education, science and intellectual property were transferred to the jurisdiction of the created four federal services and agencies controlled by the ministry - the Federal Agency for Education, the Federal Agency for Science, the Federal Service for Intellectual Property, Patents and Trademarks and the Federal Service for Supervision in the Sphere of Education and sciences.
