Kattakurqan Dövlət Pedaqoji İnstitutu

In the Republic of Uzbekistan, systemic work is being carried out to fundamentally reform the higher education system, expand the coverage of youth with higher education, and meet the needs of regions for highly qualified personnel. Special attention is paid to the wide introduction of digital and pedagogical technologies and modern methods into the educational process, ensuring transparency and fairness in the student admission process. As one of the important strategic steps of our government to expand the network of regional higher education institutions, Resolution of the Cabinet of Ministers of the Republic of Uzbekistan No. 307 dated May 18, 2021, "On measures to organize the activities of the Kattakurgan branch of Samarkand State University" was adopted. The educational institution established on the basis of this resolution contributes worthily to the development of the region today with its modern infrastructure and scientific potential. Residents of Kattakurgan city and surrounding districts of Samarkand region, especially young people, have been provided with the opportunity to receive quality higher education in their residential area. This has not only sharply increased the level of higher education coverage among youth but has also served as an important socio-economic factor in attracting talented young people from remote areas to science and unleashing their intellectual potential. In the activities of the institution, special attention is paid to the training of professional higher-educated personnel who possess practical skills in high-demand specialties, taking into account current and future development trends of the region, especially in the fields of pedagogy and economics. Actively implementing digital and innovative pedagogical technologies corresponding to international standards and modern teaching methods into the educational processes, and developing students' independent learning and creative thinking abilities is also one of the primary goals. In order to closely link students' theoretical knowledge with practice, close cooperation ties have been established with schools, preschool educational organizations, and large economic enterprises in the region, through which students become familiar directly with work processes and modern techniques during their studies. In addition, scientific research work aimed at solving regional problems is organized, and innovative projects and startup ideas of professors, teachers, and talented students are fully supported. Today, this prestigious institution is taking bold steps toward raising the quality of education in the region to a new level, training mature specialists with a modern worldview, and elevating the general intellectual environment.

All facilities are available for foreign students.  We have foreign students who can study English and Russian languages and acquire all knowledge from professional teachers.
 Therefore, a number of dormitories have been established for them and they have all the necessary conditions, therefore, a library, a computer room, and educational youth clubs in various fields have been established for them to learn together.
