Samarkand State Medical University

Samarkand State Medical University was founded in May 1930 as the initiative of the Council of People's Commissars of the Uzbek SSR. During the Second World War from 1942 to 1944, the Samarkand State Medical University (SamSMU), played a role in training medical personnel, providing medical assistance, and contributing to the war effort. It also helped in evacuating the Leningrad Military Medical Academy and Kuibyshev Military Medical Academy. It was under a military colonel at that time. It is one of the main structural units of the university, which operates in accordance with the charter and organizes its activities on the basis of orders and orders of the rector, as well as the Academic Council of the university. In recent years, the training of scientific and pedagogical personnel at the highest level of the education system has begun to acquire significantly different scales and goals: specialists of the highest scientific qualification today need not only scientific and educational universities, but also the healthcare sector, as well as knowledge-intensive industries that determine the success of the development of an innovative economy. Scientific councils for awarding the academic degree of candidate and doctor of sciences have been created and are effectively functioning at SSMU.

In order to increase knowledge among young people in the field of innovative developments, the development of scientific thinking, independent work skills, and the development of creative abilities, the course "Fundamentals of Scientific Research and Innovative Activity", designed for 6 hours of training, has been introduced into the educational process of 4th year students in all areas of education. All conditions have been created for holding competitions for startup projects, an IT incubation center for startup projects has been opened, where favorable conditions will be reflected in the effective operation of small innovative projects, increasing their quality, quantity and implementation of original scientific and technical ideas among talented young people.
