This year, students in higher education institutions in Uzbekistan will begin their classes later than originally planned. According to an official decree from the Minister of Higher Education, Science, and Innovation, the new academic year for students will start on Monday, September 9th. This decision came as a surprise to many, as it was initially expected that classes would begin simultaneously with the school year in schools and academic lyceums, specifically on September 4th.
The reasons for postponing the start of the academic year have not yet been disclosed. This has raised questions and confusion, as the later start could impact the academic process and the timing of the semester’s completion.
Nevertheless, schools and academic lyceums will commence the academic year as previously scheduled, on Wednesday, September 4th. This will allow students and teachers to return to their studies on time.
The uncertainty surrounding the delayed start of classes in universities has led to various speculations among students and their parents. It is possible that the decision is related to organizational issues or the need for additional preparatory measures within the universities.
It is hoped that the Ministry of Higher Education, Science, and Innovation will provide further clarification regarding the reasons for this change in the near future. In the meantime, students should use the extra days before the start of classes to prepare for the new academic year and address any organizational matters.
It is also worth noting that this year, Uzbekistan will enjoy a four-day holiday in celebration of Independence Day, from August 31st (Saturday) to September 3rd (Tuesday).
