In line with the European strategy of scientific research Bulgaria has adopted the provisions and principles for carrying out scientific research. The national strategy of scientific research takes into consideration the peculiarities and trends of national scientific potential development and puts an emphasis on the relation of scientific achievements with practice. The scientific research at „D. A. Tsenov Academy of Economics” is focused on the need of a systematic institutional change through transformation of its position, role, managerial structure and financial incentive mechanisms.

Tsenov Academy of Economics” during the period 1996-2010, indicators for assessing the outlined areas of project activity development and the potential for further improvement of that trend.
