The main idea behind its establishment was to provide the most gifted students with an opportunity to carve out a career suitable to their potential capabilities.
- The International School of Political Science was set up 10 years ago, its main objective being education in the field.

Famous quotes containing the words teaching and/or units:
“Teaching creativity to your child isn’t like teaching good manners. No one can paint a masterpiece by bowing to another person’s precepts about elbows on the table.”
—Gurney Williams III (20th century)
“Even in harmonious families there is this double life: the group life, which is the one we can observe in our neighbour’s household, and, underneath, another—secret and passionate and intense—which is the real life that stamps the faces and gives character to the voices of our friends. Always in his mind each member of these social units is escaping, running away, trying to break the net which circumstances and his own affections have woven about him.”
—Willa Cather (1873–1947)
