Abstract


The article deals with the issues of search, development, and support of gifted students in 21 leading Russian universities, which are the participants of the Project 5-100. Project 5-100 is a state program to assist universities, which is being implemented in Russia since 2013. The article aims to study the experience of solving some problematic issues of work with gifted students in some leading Russian universities. The material for the research was the “Road maps” (development program) of each university, as well as information from the official websites of universities. The analysis resulted in the model of interaction with intellectually gifted young people «search-development-support». Mechanisms to stimulate this category of people were systematized. The distinctive feature in the realization of the given policy is the creation of the special centers for work with gifted youth in 5 universities.
