Uzbekistan is expanding the infrastructure and international capacity of a major university in Kashkadarya Region, combining wider access to higher education with new facilities for research, language training and student accommodation.
International programmes and research facilities
The university currently serves more than 14,000 students enrolled in bachelor’s and master’s programmes delivered in full-time, part-time and distance-learning formats. Its academic staff includes 579 lecturers.
A key priority is aligning educational programmes with international requirements. Programmes in English philology, mathematics, applied mathematics and physics have received international accreditation. The university also runs 14 joint educational programmes with institutions in Russia and Belarus.
The language faculty has been equipped with a modern 1,000-seat media studio and centres dedicated to Chinese, German, French, English and Russian. International programmes also include training for simultaneous interpreters.
Research activity is concentrated at the International Laboratory Centre, which brings together seven laboratories working in artificial intelligence, machine learning and robotics.
New construction addresses student housing needs
Large-scale construction and reconstruction works were carried out at the university last year. Student living conditions were improved through the construction of three new dormitories, adding more than 1,300 places and fully covering the institution’s demand for student accommodation.
The campus also includes a 240-place kindergarten, a library, canteens, a youth centre and a conference palace. The president reviewed the work of the university’s student service centre during a visit to the institution, concluding the trip to Kashkadarya Region before returning to Tashkent.
For international companies in construction, architecture, interior design, furniture and education-related infrastructure, the project signals continuing demand for modern campuses, accommodation and specialised public facilities in Uzbekistan. The university’s international accreditation, cross-border programmes and technology-focused laboratories may also strengthen the country’s appeal as a platform for international academic, technology and infrastructure partnerships.
