CS Prime Minister Nihad Uk emphasized that in this year's budget, a record amount of funds was allocated to scientific research activities, with the amount of 4,250,000 BAM. In accordance with the principles of the CS Government, the aim is to continuously increase budget funds for science, technological development and innovation.

He added: 'It's a bad idea, '' and he said it was not a bad idea.
In addition, he said, this is a fairly simplified process, and on the other hand, it is well designed and provides enough resources.
It's very difficult to have enough money to cover the expenses. What CS provides is very useful, and I hope that this kind of support will continue in the future. Our project consists of several packages in which four others, apart from me, are involved a colleague from the faculty. We also want to draw in students to master's and undergraduate studies in this way. In this way, we ensure that they also acquire certain skills and knowledge, he said.
