BRIEF INFORMATION ABOUT THE DEPARTMENT
The department was formed in 2021 on the basis of the newly created Faculty of Hydrometeorology of the National University of Uzbekistan in the 2021/2022 academic year in accordance with the Decree of the President of the Republic of Uzbekistan dated November 17, 2020 No. PD-4896 “On measures to further improve the hydrometeorological service of the Republic of Uzbekistan”.
Currently, the department has one doctor of sciences, two candidates of sciences, two senior teachers, one teacher, two interns and one basic doctoral student. Also, when teaching students in the educational process, prominent scientists and specialists from the Hydrometeorological Research Institute, doctor of technical sciences, professor will be accepted. S.V.Myagkov, candidate of technical sciences T.A.Akhmedova, from the Scientific Research Institute of Irrigation and Water Problems, doctor of technical sciences, professor I.E.Makhmudov.
The department has full-time and part-time studies in the areas of 60520100-Hydrometeorology, master’s degree in specialties 70520102-Hydrometeorology (by type of activity), 70520103 – 5A140703-Climate change and climate risk assessment, 70520104 – Glaciology and monitoring of snow cover. A system of basic doctoral studies (PhD) and doctoral studies (DSc) has been created in the specialties 11.00.03 – Land hydrology. Water resources. Hydrochemistry.
