Higher education is under the supervision of the Ministry of Education, responsible for the accreditation and licensing of HEIs and the development and implementation of the educational standards. It is the Ministry of Education of the Republic of Belarus that oversees the running of the current educational systems. A decree established the current structure of the educational system in 1994. In 2016, Ihar Karpenka was appointed the new Minister of Education.

According to the policy established by the Ministry of Education, there are four main educational principles: state (public) nature of management, accessibility and equality, quality and the last, but not the least — financial efficiency of the activities of higher education institutions (HEIs).
