UNIVERSITY EDUCATION IN UZBEKISTAN
There are a number of Universities in Uzbekistan. They are mainly in Tashkent, Samarkand, Fergana and Nukus. Of these National University of Uzbekistan is the oldest one. As a rule a University consists of a number of different departments.

The students of our University have favorable conditions for study and research: they have necessary equipment, laboratories and libraries. Each department has its own library and reading rooms. The reading-rooms are on the ground floor. They are large, well-lit with many windows. There are Uzbek, Russian and foreign books, as well as newspapers and magazines there. One can see a lot of students in the reading-rooms before and after classes. They can prepare for their lessons there, read articles and books. The students who do well receive an allowance from the University. There are also correspondence and evening courses for those who wish to combine work and study. At these courses all students have an opportunity to attend lectures and to have laboratory classes and consultations. The teaching staff consists of professors, assistant-professors, senior teachers and teachers. Advanced students can take part in research.
