It's my pleasure to welcome you to TSUE and the Department of World Economy and International Economic Relations (WE&IER)!

Welcome to a dynamic and passionate academic community where leading experts work at the forefront of international economics, trade, finance, development, diplomacy, and international integration. Our department is committed to fostering excellence and offering an exceptional learning experience-one that enables you to think independently, analyse critically, and lead responsibly in a rapidly changing global economy. Here, you will engage with research-led teaching, real-world case studies, and collaborative projects with economic and policy partners. We encourage you to make the most of our seminars, research laboratories, internships, and international opportunities; your individuality, curiosity, and dedication are central to our shared success.

We aim to become the leading Central Asian centre for research-driven teaching and policy-relevant scholarship on the world economy and international economic relations. Our goal is to prepare ethical, globally competent professionals who support sustainable development. To achieve this, we educate students to understand the complexities of the global economy by combining rigorous theory, evidence-based methods, and experiential learning. We also produce high-impact research for policy and business, and establish international partnerships that connect Uzbekistan and Central Asia with global knowledge networks. Our mission is to deliver high-quality teaching, generate impactful research, and actively collaborate with government, industry, and international organisations, thereby enhancing national and regional competitiveness in a connected world.

We achieve this ambition through an integrative culture rooted in personal and professional integrity. We are dedicated to collaborative, team-oriented work that fosters long-term relationships with faculty colleagues, students, alumni, and other stakeholders. Our focus is on delivering high-quality academic programmes, excellent teaching, impactful research, and meaningful service that address the needs of our community. We regularly evaluate, enhance, and tailor our activities in response to the changing demands of the business environment.

Our commitment is clear and ambitious: to help you become an independent thinker, ready to pursue your chosen career-whether in government, international organisations, business, finance, or academia-while making meaningful contributions to sustainable and inclusive global development.

Welcome to WE&IER!

We look forward to learning, researching, and achieving with you.
