Welcome

The USA-Uzbekistan collaboration for Research, Education and Student Training is the result of collaborative efforts started in 2011 by Dr. Zair Ibragimov at California State University, Fullerton (CSUF) and a group of mathematics faculty at Urgench State University (Uzbekistan). To this end, we have organized three workshops (Fullerton 2011, Urgench 2011, Fullerton 2013) and two larger-scale USA-Uzbekistan conferences (Fullerton 2014, Urgench 2017) in Mathematics. There were several delegation exchanges: CSUF hosted four Uzbekistan Higher Education delegations (2011, 2013, 2019, 2020), CSUF delegation visited Uzbekistan (2012 and 2014). During 2017-2024, 96 U.S. undergraduate/graduate students visited Uzbekistan to conduct summer research/internship in Mathematics, Machine Learning, Data Science, Physics, Biology, Computer Science and Biochemistry funded by the National Science Foundation (IRES-Track I, CSU-LSAMP, IRES-Track II).

Activities planned for summer 2025: 

  1. The 3rd Al-Khorezmi International Mathematical Olympiad for Undergraduate Students, Urgench State University, May 26-31, 2025.  https://akhimo.urdu.uz/.                                                   
  2. Advanced Studies Institute in Mathematical Foundations of Artificial Intelligence, Urgench State University, August 4-15, 2025 (funded by NSF IRES grant; pending).
