Agency for Specialized Educational Institutions under the Ministry of Education and Science of the Republic of Uzbekistan.

The first review and presentation meeting has been held for the 11 engineering schools established under the "Özbekiston — ilğor muhandislar mamlakati" project, an initiative put forward by President Shavkat Mirziyoyev.

Today, November 12, a meeting was held under the leadership of Sevara Shakirova, Director of the Agency for Specialized Educational Institutions, with the participation of principals from engineering schools within the Agency's system. During the session, participants reviewed the initial results of the newly launched educational institutions. It should be noted that these engineering schools were established under Presidential Resolution No. PQ-278 of September 8, 2025, "Yangi avlod muhandislarini tayyorlaş va muhandislik ta’limini rivojlantirişga oid çora-tadbirlar töğrisida," with the goal of preparing next-generation engineers, advancing engineering education, and making this track a priority in the national school system.
During the session, participants reviewed the outcomes of the first quarter of the 2026–2027 academic year, evaluating student academic performance, education quality benchmarks, and ongoing initiatives across the schools.

Nearly 2,000 students across the 11 engineering schools—which opened their doors this academic year—took part in the first-quarter assessments. The exams were administered in both online and offline formats in line with modern testing standards. Following a thorough analysis of the assessment data, discussions focused on raising educational standards at each school, improving subject mastery, and supporting teachers' ongoing professional growth.

Participants also discussed proposals for peer-to-peer experience sharing among teachers, scaling up best pedagogical practices, strengthening individualized work with students, and effectively organizing extracurricular classes. At the conclusion of the meeting, future priorities were defined aimed at consistently elevating the quality of education in engineering schools, fostering students' interest in engineering and exact sciences, and developing their theoretical knowledge and practical skills.

Launched as part of this initiative, the engineering schools are designed to support talented young people, cultivate a modern engineering learning environment, and prepare highly qualified, competitive engineers for the country's future industry and economy.
