The Agency for Specialized Educational Institutions (ASEI) is a state institution under the Ministry of Preschool and School Education of the Republic of Uzbekistan.
ASEI focuses on creating and expanding specialized educational institutions. A presidential decree has led to the establishment of specialized boarding schools and schools with in-depth subject studies within this agency's system. These institutions are designed to foster talent in various academic fields, particularly in the exact and natural sciences, by providing education to students who excel in these areas. The admission to these schools is based on entrance examinations or outstanding performance in recognized Olympiads. Additionally, the Agency emphasizes the in-depth teaching of Uzbekistan's history and offers advanced courses in cutting-edge fields like artificial intelligence and biotechnology. Employment of teaching and managerial staff in these schools is highly competitive, ensuring a high standard of education.
The educational reforms in Uzbekistan have established a comprehensive system encompassing all levels of education, from preschool to postgraduate, integrating vocational training with general education. This model emphasizes the development of professional skills alongside academic knowledge, aiming to align with labor market demands and international standards. The reforms include a focus on science and technology, continuous education, and integration of education with production and research, aiming to cultivate a skilled workforce and promote sustainable development.
