    Fees and funding

    Tuition Fee:

    * 22,800,000 UZS per year

    * Commencing in the 2024-2025 academic year, a special scholarship will be awarded to students enrolled in the Mechanical Engineering and Chemical and Materials Engineering programs. This initiative is established in response to the heightened demand for qualified engineering professionals in the labor market of Uzbekistan.

    There are five types of funding:

    1. Merit based scholarship - merit based scholarships are given on a competition basis for local students who get high scores in the entrance examination. This scholarship is given for owing to each academic program for 1 year ONLY (for 1st year) according to the following scheme.

    Merit Scholarship Percentage
    Top 10% of the announced quota 100% scholarship
    The following 10% of the announced quota 70% scholarship
    The following 15% of the announced quota 50% scholarship

    2. Academic scholarship - every year (for 2nd, 3rd, 4th years), academic scholarships are given on a competition basis for local students who get high scores from all taught courses in ONE academic year in each program.

    Based on the scores from all taught courses in ONE academic year, the percentage of scholarship for a student is a subject to change every year (for 2nd, 3rd, 4th years). It means that every year (for 2nd, 3rd, 4th years), the percentage of academic scholarship for a student may increase or decrease or cancelled based on student’s academic performance.If academic scholarship is cancelled due to student’s low academic performance, the student will automatically be placed in the list of students studying based on a tuition fee.

    In addition, even contract basis students have an opportunity to get academic scholarship if they show high academic performance from all taught courses in ONE academic year

    Students who are admitted on contract basis (in the 1st year) have a chance to be placed in the list of academic scholarship students if they show high academic performance during the following years.

    Therefore, all scholarship and contract basis students must study hard and compete with each other to get academic scholarship. This scholarship is given according to the following scheme.

    Academic Scholarship Top 10% of academic performing students
    Top 10% of academic performing students 100% scholarship
    The following 10% of academic performing students 70% scholarship
    The following 15% of academic performing students 50% scholarship
