Undergraduate students are trained in the following areas: “Accounting and Finance”, “HR Management and Psychology”, “Public Administration”, “International Business, Tourism”, “Marketing”, “Information Technology, Innovation, Entrepreneurship”. Skyline University College also offers master’s programs, in particular “Finance, International Business and Marketing”, “Electronic Government”, “Strategic Management”, “Project Management”. 

Issues related to establishing cooperation between Skyline University College and the Ministry of Higher and Secondary Specialized Education of Uzbekistan were discussed at the meeting.

Representatives of the university proposed three drafts of the interaction program for consideration by the Uzbek side, in particular, draft documents on the allocation of an academic scholarship grant, support for sports initiatives, as well as the implementation of an educational program and the provision of more opportunities for girls and young women.

The Uzbek side proposed to consider the issue of opening a branch of this university in our country, to which the interlocutors expressed their readiness to start discussing this issue with the Ministry of Higher and Secondary Specialized Education.
