Tashkent, Uzbekistan (UzDaily.com) -- The President of Uzbekistan Shavkat Mirziyoyev visited the Uzbek-Korean International University in Ferghana.
This educational institution was created in accordance with the resolution of the Cabinet of Ministers of the Republic of Uzbekistan from 23 August 2019. Education is provided on a fee-contract basis according to advanced curricula and programs in Uzbek, Korean and English.
The university is designed for 4 thousand students. In the final academic year, 720 boys and girls completed the first course. 11 experienced teachers from South Korea were invited, and in the future the number of Korean teachers will reach 43.
This year, a new building was built for this international educational institution. To this end, more than US$10 million of foreign investment was attracted.
Shavkat Mirziyoyev talked with the university rector Park Joon Hu and Korean teachers. The President of Uzbekistan took an interest in the curriculum and the content of training, student performance.
The university provides education in humanitarian and technical-engineering specialties. In particular, tourism management, pre-school education, management and computerized accounting, Korean language and literature are taught. The institution also trains qualified specialists in the field of mechanical engineering, automotive engineering, electrical and electronics, architectural design, computer engineering, energy and chemical engineering.
“In our first years, they teach general subjects, repeat the school curriculum,” said Shavkat Mirziyoyev. - Youth thus misses a year of their life, even loses interest in learning. Things are different in developed countries, where from the first year they begin to take disciplines in their specialty, and practice occupies an important place. The difference as a result is shown by life itself.
In this regard, officials were instructed to review the system of higher education in our country, having studied the curriculum of South Korean universities, to orient students to the practical component as much as possible.
