Ministry of Education and Science of Ukraine

Following the fall of the Yanukovych government in 2014 and the appointment of Serhiy Kvit as minister of education, Sovsun was hired as first deputy minister of education at the age of 29, the youngest deputy minister in the history of Ukraine's government. This choice was considered a "shock appointment" due to her lack of political experience.

From March 2014 to August 2016, Inna Sovsun held the position of Deputy Minister of Education and Science of Ukraine. With her active support the Law on Higher Education was implemented, which expanded the autonomy of higher education institutions, ensured compliance with academic integrity, introduced a new model of university funding, and others.

From 2015 to 2016, Sovsun was involved in drafting a law that would reform standards for pre-higher education, allowing for future graduates to attend the first year of European universities immediately after school. However, some of the proposed reforms were also criticized because they would have resulted in the firing of "at least ten thousand" teachers, the shuttering of small rural schools, and the streaming of some students away from higher academic education and towards vocational training.

She was also responsible for international cooperation, cooperation with the Parliament and other authorities. Among other achievements there are higher Ukraine's involvement in Erasmus+ program, Ukraine's participation in PISA 2018, and improved university enrollment process.Шаблон:Citation needed
