In the fall of 2022, the SUAI delegation headed by the rector participated in the International Exhibition ‘Russian Education. Tashkent-2022’ and visited the Samarkand Institute of Service and Economics. Also, SUAI employees took part in the III Russian-Uzbek educational forum ‘Integration of education, production and science - a driver of academic efficiency’, where during working meetings were concluded memorandums of understanding with a number of Uzbek universities.
Last year 5 memorandums of understanding were signed with universities from different regions of the Republic of Uzbekistan.
– Over the past year, the interaction between the SUAI and the universities of Uzbekistan has become closer. Having personally visited both Tashkent and Samarkand as part of my working trips, I was pleasantly surprised not only by the hospitality, but also by the level of educational institutions of the republic. Uzbekistan is of particular importance for our university. Almost immediately after its foundation in 1941, many employees of the university were evacuated to Tashkent. And for today's colleagues, it is no less important and interesting to establish contacts with the universities of Uzbekistan and participate in joint events, - said Yulia Antokhina, rector of the SUAI.
The guest of the university Alisher Babayev, the Consul General of the Republic of Uzbekistan in St. Petersburg, visited the ‘Tochka Kipeniya - St. Petersburg. SUAI’ and met students from Uzbekistan, to date, more than 60 Uzbek students are studying at the SUAI.
-Traditionally, people come to St. Petersburg to receive a quality education and find good prospects. In Uzbekistan, diplomas of the universities of St. Petersburg are highly valued. The Consulate of Uzbekistan is ready to provide any necessary support for establishing relations between the SUAI and higher educational institutions of Uzbekistan, - emphasized the Consul General.
