About the university

      Samarkand State University is one of the oldest classical universities in Uzbekistan, known far beyond the country. Its history begins in the Timurid era, when on September 21, 1420, the great scholar Muhammad Havofi made a scientific report on the theory of Claudius Ptolemy before more than 100 listeners.

 

        Historically, the university had several names. From January 22, 1927 to 1930 - Higher Pedagogical Institute, and then in 1930 it became the State Pedagogical Academy of Uzbekistan, and from 1933 to 1941 - the State University of Uzbekistan. During World War II, the State University of Uzbekistan was incorporated into the Central Asian University (now the Mirzo Ulugbek National University of Uzbekistan). In 1944, the State University of Uzbekistan was restored, and since 1960, the State University of Uzbekistan was reorganized into Samarkand State University. Samarkand State University was named after Sharof Rashidov by the Resolution No. PP-82 of the President of the Republic of Uzbekistan dated 13.01.2022.

        The great ancestors Mirzo Ulugbek, Kazizoda Rumi, Ali Kushchi, Giyasiddin Koshi, Alisher Navoi, Abdurakhman Jami raised enlightenment and culture in Samarkand and laid the foundation of world civilization, and today's higher educational institutions are based on their rich heritage. The Samarkand State University is one such institution of higher learning. Over the years of its existence, the University has trained thousands of specialists and highly qualified personnel.

        Today, the Institute of Agrobiotechnology and Food Security, Institute of Engineering Physics, Kattakurgan and Urgut branches and 12 faculties of Samarkand State University train more than 25000 students in full-time, evening and part-time courses, as well as in master and doctoral programs in 76 fields of study and 40 master specialties. They are taught by more than 800 professors and teachers, including three academicians of the Academy of Sciences, 81 doctors of sciences and 311 candidates of sciences. The highest pedagogical qualification (PhD, DSc) in more than 40 specialties are being trained, nine scientific councils are in operation to ensure their defence.

         The University library fund includes more than 3 million copies of scientific and educational literature, including about 15 thousand rare books and oriental manuscripts. There are 3 academic lyceums, 4 museums, 1 conservatory and 2 unique objects at the university.

    In order to ensure the regular operation of the educational process, a scientific-methodical journal "Scientific Bulletin of Samarkand State University" and a newspaper "Samarkand University" are periodically published; a printing house which publishes and edits educational and scientific works operates.

        During the years of Independence 19 students of the university were awarded the state scholarship of the President of the Republic of Uzbekistan, 98 students were awarded state scholarships named after outstanding personalities, 9 students were awarded the state prize "Zulfiya". There are champions and prizewinners of various sports championships and competitions among the students of the university: 7 students are world champions, 57 students are Asia champions, over 170 students are Uzbek champions, over 300 students are champions and prize winners of Universiades.

        The University faculty members have been awarded with state decorations: Buyuk Hizmatlari uchun - 1 person, El-Yurt Hurmati - 5 persons, Mehnat Shukhrati - 5 persons; Shukhrat medals - 3 persons; honorary titles: "Uzbekiston fan arbobi" - 3 people, "Uzbekistonda khizmat kursatgan yoshlar murabbiyasi" - 6 people.

        Samarkand State University is one of the flagships of education development in the country and an active participant in the reforms in this field in Uzbekistan. One of the priorities is to harmonize the educational process, increase competitiveness of trained specialists, introduce advanced pedagogical technologies, and ensure the priority and relevance of scientific research.

Samarkand State University has joined the ranks of 5-star universities in the QS Stars rating

On May 15, 2024, the Samarkand State University named after Sharof Rashidov became the first in Uzbekistan to receive 5 stars in the QS Stars rating and joined the ranks of the most highly rated universities in the world.

QS Stars is one of the most influential and reliable rankings for universities in the world, a selection system that evaluates performance indicators in higher education institutions in several areas.

The QS (Quacquarelli Symonds) Stars ranking system was launched by international ranking agency in 2009 to help universities promote their strengths and identify and improve their weaknesses.

According to QS, employers tend to directly hire graduates from 5-star universities. The activities of such institutions are rated as "Excellent" in the QS Stars rating system.

The QS Stars rating system evaluates the activities of universities according to the following indicators:

Teaching

Quality of education - An indicator of the quality of education is calculated and evaluates the results of surveys conducted among students, the level of education after higher education, and the ratio of students to teachers.

Employability

Graduate Employability - Surveys of employers assess graduate employability and the performance of the university's career support center.

Internationalisation

Internationalization - evaluates the ratio of international students and staff, the number of students coming to and from the university on exchange programs, the number of nationalities in the student body, the number and strength of international partnerships with other universities.

Academic

Development

Academic Development - This category assesses the university's academic development opportunities for its students and faculty outside of teaching and learning. This includes indicators such as assistantships for students, the availability of extracurricular activities, and the number of teachers participating in development programs.

Facilities

Facilities - This category assesses the university's infrastructure, which gives students an idea of ​​the environment they can expect from their university. These include facilities such as sports facilities, student accommodation and a library.

Accordingly, the degree of competitiveness and respectability of the chosen field, leading professors, promising students, as well as the role of the field in education and industry are evaluated.

Social

Responsibility

Social responsibility - This indicator evaluates the level of the university's contribution to social interests, by examining its role in ensuring social equality and wide-ranging relations with the public. These include factors such as an institution's social impact, outreach, philanthropic investments, and human capital development. Also, within this indicator, the institution's contribution to reducing inequalities between the population and its impact on the health and well-being of the population are also taken into account.

Inclusiveness

Inclusion - This category considers disability support services, gender equality among students and staff, and the existence of a strategic framework to ensure this.

 

The university achieved the highest score  in the categories of education, graduate employment, internationalization, academic development, facilities, selected field of study (Physics), and social responsibility.

ABOUT THE INSTITUTE Since the founding of Uzbek State University (now Samarkand State University) in 1927, the Faculty of Physics and Mathematics began to function. For the first time, in 1933, scientist Prof. A.M. Titov from Russia was invited to work in the physics department in Samarkand, and together with A. Yu. Pedder and N.P. Kuznetsov, the chair "General Physics" was created in 1933, and the chair "Optics and theoretical physics" was created in 1935. In 1933, under Professor AMTitov’s guidance, scientific research was conducted on solar energy (Geliophysics). For the first time, in 1935, K.T. Abdirashidov, A. Kochnev, A. Tekuchyov, U. Sultonov and Musa Muminov defended their candidate dissertations under his leadership. Prof. Muso Muminov's services should be emphasized in the development of physics. In 1944, he was appointed as a Rector of Uzbek State University and, at the same time, he was also head of the chair "Theoretical Physics" and then created the "General Physics" and "Optics" chairs. In 1951 M. Muminov together with H. Haydarov created the first laboratory textbook in the Uzbek language on "Molecular Physics". In August, 1961, the Faculty of Physics was separated from the Faculty of Physics and Mathematics and a new period began in the development of physics. In 1959, A.K.

Student reviews

Koki Murooka

Koki Murooka Japan Academic exchange program My name is Koki Murooka. I am a third-year student at Soka University, and I am currently studying abroad at Samarkand State University to study Russian. My life here is very exciting. The professors are enthusiastic about their classes and all the students take their studies very seriously. When I first came here, I was taught Russian from the basics and had good classes to improve my understanding of grammar and to increase my vocabulary and ways of expressing myself. In addition to the language, we also learned about the history of Uzbekistan, and were able to visit actual sites and experience the history and culture firsthand. My friends in the class I am taking now are kind and teach me the content of lectures I don't understand. I can only express my gratitude to all the staff involved at the university.

Krzysztof Kurtyka

Krzysztof Kurtyka Poland Master’s degree, mobility exchange program My name is Krzysztof Kurtyka and I'm a Master’s program student from Jagiellonian University Cracow, Poland. It was my dream to come to Samarkand one day as it is one of those ancient cities you hear about here and there. As an enthusiast of ancient history in general and Sogdiana in particular I couldn't find a better place to go. Here you have countless possibilities to explore the great past of ancient Sogdiana (of which Samarkand was sort of capital), speak in Tajik, which was one of my goals and broaden horizons by learning Uzbek and developing skills in Russian. Although getting used to different administration is always a challenge you can always get through it thanks to the supportive teachers and International Affairs office. I find university campus very comfortable and really there is nothing missing here. The same may be said about the whole city which attracts you not only with its historical places but also its green parks, warm weather and hospitable people.

Ekaterina Khvatalova

Ekaterina Khvatalova Russian Federation Student on the academic mobility program in the direction of "Digital Economy" My name is Ekaterina Khvatalova, and I am a 4th year student at Samarkand State University. I believe that studying in Samarkand will strengthen and deepen my existing knowledge, and will also leave mostly positive emotions from my stay here. I am eternally grateful to SamSU teachers for the knowledge they invested in me. My choice was Uzbekistan, because this country has a great cultural heritage, rich history, diverse traditions and customs. Studying here is a wonderful opportunity not only to gain invaluable learning experience, but also to visit the oldest cities in the world, such as Bukhara, Tashkent, Khiva, Shakhrisabz. Each city has preserved luxurious architectural monuments that are considered world-class attractions. I was not mistaken when we decided to choose Samarkand State University named after Sharof Rashidov. Thank you for the positive experience and the opportunity to gain new knowledge.

Kang Lina, Yu Xiang, Zhang Huaqing, Li Juan People's Republic of China Doctoral exchange program We are a delegation from Shaanxi Normal University in China, currently studying at the History Department of Samarkand State University.

Finally, we liked the campus of Samarkand State University and the city of Samarkand very much. The campus is beautiful, and the local people are warm and kind and very friendly to us. As people who study the history of Central Asia, we are very glad to come here to experience the long and splendid history and civilization of Central Asia and the open and tolerant multiculturalism. All in all, we like Samarkand very much, and we are more than happy to be able to visit Samarkand State University, and this experience will be one of the most valuable treasures in our life.

Li Lei

Lee Lei People's Republic of China PhD student I am Li Leiman, a citizen of the People's Republic of China. Currently, in the Department of Uzbek Linguistics, we are conducting research on comparative linguistics, as well as publishing articles in prestigious journals. Language is a bridge of communication, the basis of exchange and cooperation between people, and language is a bond that strengthens relations between the peoples of two countries. The Uzbek language is one of the languages with a long history. I hope that I will learn this language well at SamSU, I would like to learn more about the local customs and culture, and jointly develop the pragmatic cooperation between China and Uzbekistan and the two peoples. I will try to contribute more to strengthen the friendship between them. The university provides good opportunities for foreign students to study and live. I am very happy to be doing research at SamSU, I would like to thank all the professors and teachers.
