IIT Roorkee Strengthens Global Ties with Uzbekistan: Key Agreements Inked

The Indian Institute of Technology Roorkee (IIT Roorkee) and Samarkand State University (SamSU) signed two key agreements, marking a significant step forward in Indo-Uzbek academic partnership. These include a Letter of Intent to Establish a Joint Master's Degree Programme (JMDP) and a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) to promote research and collaboration in hydrology, environmental science, sustainable energy, and the SDGs.

The agreements were signed by Professor Khalmuradov Rustam Ibragimovich, Rector of SamSU, and Prof. Kamal Kishore Pant, Director of IIT Roorkee, together with senior academic members from both institutions.

The Joint Master's Degree Programme (JMDP) will be created by IIT Roorkee's Department of Hydrology and SAMSU's Department of Hydrometeorology.

This programme shall equip students and faculties of SamSU with advanced expertise in water resource management modeling and sustainability. Through this partnership, IIT Roorkee will exploit the long-standing expertise and experience to provide actionable solutions to real-world problems in hydrology and related fields in Uzbekistan.

Professor Kamal Kishore Pant, Director of IIT Roorkee, noted that this collaboration will contribute to sustainable solutions for water and environmental issues, enhancing academic excellence and societal impact. Professor Ibragimovich stated that the agreements underscore both institutions' commitment to addressing pressing climate challenges and creating a platform for innovative research and education.

The relationship establishes a precedent for Indo-Uzbek educational interactions and is likely to greatly improve both universities' worldwide status. By addressing global water concerns and climate change, the IIT Roorkee-SAMSU collaboration lays the door for creative academic projects that will benefit future generations while also strengthening India-Uzbekistan ties.
