On October 29, taking into account quarantine restrictions in a remote mode, chaired by Rector V. Sements, a workshop was held on calculating the amount of funding for departments in 2020 based on key performance indicators (KPI). According to the decision of the Academic Council of the University, the amount of funding for the BMI department in 2020 according to the Resolution of the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine dated December 24, 2019 No. 1146 “On the distribution of state budget expenditures between universities based on the indicators of their educational, scientific and international activities” was calculated according to the KRI indicator – 8.44. Despite the global economic downturn caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, reduced incomes and growing instability, the department received additional funding in proportion to the CWI in the IV quarter of 2020.

This was possible thanks to the results of a successful introductory campaign, publication activity, financial receipts from scientific and international activities, a contingent of foreign students and other components of the sustainable development strategy.
