Achieved results of the project




Established educational standards, curricula, teaching materials,
which have passed the relevant examination and received official
approval.
(In NUU and TCTI second year is set to graduate in relevant
specialties, and the total number of master's degrees, 36 students.)
In NUU and TCTI created new classrooms equipped with computers
and office equipment purchased with funds allocated by the grant.
Retraining courses for specialists from the regions of the Republic
(5 universities: - Namangan, Andijan, Ferghana, Samarkand,
Karakalpakstan) and the Navoi Institute of Mountain metallurgical
industrial complex
Teachers NUU (7 people) and TCTI (4 people) were trained in
Vienna and in the Technical University of Munich
Teachers and graduate students:
-
Navoi Pedagocical Institute
Navoi Mountain Metallurgical Institute,
Kazakh University of Technology,
Bukhara Technological Institute,
National University of Uzbekistan,
Andijan, Bukhara, Ferghana, Karakalpakstan, Samarkand State Universities
were trained for several courses, read by European partners (poof. Veis H , Meyer
H, H.J. Bundgards from Munich Technical University, Prof. Dikart I., Liberzayt P., P.
Wolfshan from University of Vienna).
The benefits of the project is beyond doubt, since teachers and masters
were able to:
- improve their skills;
- establish a friendly and working contact with the scientists of the Vienna and
Munich Universities;
- get Teaching and Methodological material
Three students from National University of Uzbekistan and three students from
Tashkent Chemistry Technological Institute studied and prepared their masters
dissertation during four month at Munich Technical University.
In implementing the goals of the project
as effective methods of training and
retraining of teaching staff should use the
opportunity to conduct joint winter and
summer schools at the expense of the
project
Necessary to ensure the participation of stakeholders in
project management and implementation
All stakeholders should actively participate in
management and project implementation.
Steering and strategic committees together to define the
strategy and tactics of the project discussing the
different sides of the implementation of the project.
Necessary at the outset of the project to define a
specific order prepared by the experts.
We had a specific order of Uz-chimestry- industry, which
held regular consultations with a view towards training.
Involving teachers and students in the process of reforming the educational
process.
In the process of reforming the curriculum needs to engage teachers and
students from other universities.
Need to receive feedback on the program from the experts of the Academy
of Sciences of Uzbekistan, universities and industry.
Implement the interaction between the project teams by reading course for
partner universities. For example, in our project, Professors Aripov M.,
Fayazov K.S, Yuldashev Z.K , Abdurakhimov B., Assoc.prof Khaydarov A.
giving lectures and study hours for students TCTI respectively, the following
courses:
Introduction to Programming,
Scientific Computing,
Algorithms,
Applied Mathematics in science and technology,
Visualization,
Software Engineering (Software Development).
Work to improve the skills of foreign languages
Education and improving participants' knowledge of the
project in English is one of the things the successful
implementation of the project.
Necessary to provide training for teachers and masters
from specially selected for this purpose, a teacher, a
good command of the terminology of the industry.
The National University of Uzbekistan in the project
trained 15 masters and 8 teachers.
.
Availability of teaching materials
In order to spread the experience of teaching all
students and teachers should be provided with abstracts
of lectures and electronic course materials
Need to plan for the acquisition of modern academic
literature on the grant funds.
Using the experience of European partners need to
develop lecture notes.
Necessary from the beginning of the project to develop a
strategy for disseminating results of the project, determine
their future as consumers in the participating universities
and outside the project consortium.
So in our project is planned to extend the results of the
project, not only in universities but also in another
universities of Uzbekistan and Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan and
Tajikistan. The results were presented to future partners and
customers in Alma-Aty Technological University
(Kazakhstan), Kazakh partners planned as future partners to
extend the experience
Possibility in stable improving
It is important setup understanding between the
leadership of the university and executives project and
get real support from management
As a result of our project at the expense of NUU
completely renovated space for a computer room area of
​112 m sq, consisting of two classrooms and is equipped
with furniture, curtains, alarm is all necessary to
accommodate the purchase of computers under the
European standards. Installed a computer network
designed to prepare master's degree.
Implementation of the European experience
Through this project, many of the professors of the university
working in this project learned new things that have arisen in
the diagnostics of mathematics, computer science and applied
sciences. Gone are the proper trial practice during visits to
European research centers such as University of Vienna (Austria)
and the Technical University of Munich (Germany), giving them
invaluable practice for the teaching of relevant subjects. Project
participants have succeeded in the European partners see the
latest advances in computer science, information technology,
applied mathematics and chemistry, which are directly used in
these universities for teaching students. Because of this we can
confidently say that the National University of Uzbekistan is at
the forefront of training given direction
Suggestions



We use a financial grant opportunities for conducting field training
for an invitation from the regions
In order to reach a broad training in the new Graduate Program
should be created to target courses for distance education as the
most acceptable, relatively cheap option of training for our region
It should be particularly pay attention to language training at all
levels, allowing for integration in informational community
NEWS in advance work on the replication of the first stages of
project implementation
From the beginning of the program we oriented to develop training
materials for the Masters in three languages ​(Uzbek, Russian,
English)
Thank you for your attention!
