Uzbekistan has officially approved a new concept aimed at overhauling its system of military professional education, focusing on modernization, integration, and broader career opportunities for service members.
The President of Uzbekistan and Supreme Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces, Shavkat Mirziyoyev, has approved a series of proposals aimed at reforming the country's military education system.
A new national model for training military personnel has been developed following a study of military education systems in more than 20 foreign countries. The imperative for modernization was underscored at the Security Council meeting on February 21, 2025.
According to the new model, a University of Military Security and Defence of the Republic of Uzbekistan will be establised based on the existing Academy of Armed Forces that has been the center of country's military professional education since 2017.
The new university will consolidate all educational facilities under the Ministry of Defence, including five institutes, the Higher School for Sergeant Training, and the School for Training Specialists in Aviation and Unmanned Aerial Vehicles—both of which will be granted institute status.
“Ultimately, this will create a unified, vertically integrated structure aimed at strengthening the army’s capabilities, expanding dual education programs, and accelerating the practical application of scientific research,” the Presidential Office said in a statement.
Another key innovation is the introduction of a hybrid “2+2” model, under which second-year students at civilian universities will be selected to undergo military training in 18 specialized fields, including psychology, communications, logistics, and supply.
To support talented youth, the State Scholarship of the Supreme Commander-in-Chief will be launched starting this academic year. Recipients of the scholarship will be eligible to enroll in a military master’s programme without entrance exams during five years after completing their bachelor's degree.
A dual-degree system will also be implemented, enabling graduates of military academies to earn diplomas in both military and civilian professions across 36 specialties—ensuring broader career opportunities even after completing their military service.
