Bringing New Geological Discoveries to Surface
The discovery of several small gold deposits in eastern Kazakhstan has sparked interest in the exploration of precious metals. Dr. Joyashish Thakurta, a faculty specialist focusing on economic geology in the Department of Geological and Environmental Science at Western Michigan University, noticed the potential of resource mapping in Central Asia. “There is a very little pre-existing study on the isotopic characteristics of this region,” says Dr. Thakurta.
Meanwhile, researchers at East Kazakhstan State Technical University sought international collaborations to better understand mineral deposits and evaluate the economic impact from geological research. Through a grant funded by the U.S. Embassy in Kazakhstan through the Central Asia university Partnerships (UniCEN) Program, the researchers have re-evaluated existing deposits and explored new mineral deposits through collaboration.

Building Virtual International Partnerships in Higher Education
The distance between two research institutions in Kazakhstan and Pennsylvania is nearly 10,000 kilometers, but that hasn’t stopped students and faculty from building a close international partnership.
Since 2019, a top-ranked higher education institution in Kazakhstan, S. Seifullin Agro Technical University (KazATU), has connected its students and faculty with their counterparts at Pennsylvania State University. Both institutions prioritize the role of a global perspective in higher education. As studying or researching abroad is not always a possibility for students and faculty, these institutions have gone beyond borders digitally.
To support global experience for all its students and faculty, the Penn State Beaver campus developed the Experiential Digital Global Engagement or EDGE program. EDGE enables Penn State faculty to co-create curriculum with their peers in other countries, leveraging accessible technology platforms like Zoom to enhance student interaction.

Educating Next Generation Agribusiness Specialists
Agriculture is a critical sector in Uzbekistan, comprising a quarter of the economy. The State of Mississippi and the Republic of Uzbekistan have enjoyed a relationship since the 1930s rooted in cotton production. In recent years, new American investment in reviving an agricultural cluster now well positioned toward global markets.
Setting forth on an ambitious reform agenda, agricultural education in Uzbekistan seeks to forge stronger linkages to business needs. Through the Central Asia University Partnerships Program (UniCEN), faculty and administrators at the Mississippi State University and Tashkent State Agrarian University have joined together to launch a dual degree for agricultural economics. Natural sciences students with a technical background will be better prepared to enter the business world.
Working with the Mississippi State University’s agriculture economics and agricultural and bioengineering departments during Summer 2020, counterparts at Tashkent State Agrarian University finalized the outline for course syllabi. When the program launches in Fall 2022, master’s level students will take a minimum of 10 course hours in agribusiness management to prepare them for Uzbekistan’s modernizing economy.

Advancing Hands-On STEM Education
Uzbekistan’s leadership has outlined a policy to expand project-based teaching methods, students’ entrepreneurship skills and transform universities into centers for the development of education and science. Through the Central Asia University Partnerships Program (UniCEN), professors from Massachusetts Institute of Technology and Samarkand State University are sharing effective methods for hands-on science education for their students.
Dr Michael Short, Associate Professor of Nuclear Science and Engineering at MIT, and Akmal Safarov, researcher at the Nuclear Physics laboratory at Samarkand State, are committed to facilitating new hands-on experiences for students in the classroom. As a first step, the MIT professor sent Geiger counter kits for 20 students at Samarkand State to assemble. Using a mobile app and open-source mapping tools online, students in Uzbekistan collected everyday samples for analysis – from banana peels to toenails to archaeological samples.
The partnership is transferring knowledge, materials, and ideas for hands-on educational activities, transforming undergraduate nuclear education in Uzbekistan. MIT now offers free, introductory courses on nuclear engineering to Samarkand State. As the partnership progresses, new lightboard studio at MIT will facilitate virtual educational collaborations among U.S. and Uzbek faculty and students.

Preserving Architectural Treasures
Known for its ancient historical treasures, Uzbekistan’s tourism sector is rapidly growing as the country continues to open doors for foreign travelers. Preserving and maintaining historical landmarks is essential to ensure that future generations enjoy Uzbekistan’s architectural splendor. Through the Central Asia University Partnerships Program (UniCEN), researchers at the University of California-Berkeley and Urgench State University spearheaded a multi-disciplinary and interactive approach to teach structural health monitoring for buildings.
A team of researchers and students from University of California-Berkeley and Urgench State University selected the Juma Mosque in Ichan Kala in the historical Silk Road city of Khiva to map structural anomalies. In Fall 2020, 45 participants completed hands-on training program on laser scanning and theoretical classes conducted via Zoom to prepare them for field work. Urgench State researchers travelled to Khiva to complete the training on laser scanning at the historic site. Researchers collected and analyzed 3D data identify the most vulnerable locations of the monument.
As a next step, the team will continue hands-on training work and submit their research findings in international journals and conferences. University of California-Berkeley and Urgench State researchers plan to expand their collaboration through ongoing preparation of master's and PhD students in civil engineering.
