Youth, Peace, and Security: Central Asian Youth at the Negotiating Table

As part of the initiative, 14 students have embarked on an international professional journey. Studying in the field of Tourism and Hospitality Management, they will now have the opportunity to reinforce their academic knowledge through hands-on experience in a real international working environment.

More than just a summer abroad, this program offers a unique platform for professional growth, cultural exchange, and personal development. By working, learning, and travelling in Bulgaria, students will gain valuable industry-specific expertise, broaden their global perspectives, and strengthen the competencies required to thrive in an increasingly competitive international labour market.

This experience marks an important step toward transforming classroom learning into practical excellence and preparing globally minded professionals for the future.

Through a wide range of events, projects, and community initiatives, they have successfully united students and helped create a more vibrant, engaging, and dynamic university environment.

During the visit, participants familiarized themselves with the activities of the Committee on Science, Education, Culture, Sports and Youth Affairs and took part in an open dialogue with Members of Parliament.

The meeting provided students with comprehensive information on the state youth policy, the substance and significance of newly adopted laws, the role of political party factions and parliamentary committees, the activities of the Youth Parliament, and other key dimensions of parliamentary work.

Particular interest was sparked by discussions on the legislative process itself—from the drafting of bills to their review, debate, and final adoption. Members of Parliament answered students’ questions and shared practical insights into their professional responsibilities and decision-making processes.

As part of the educational tour, students also visited the museum dedicated to the history of the Oliy Majlis, explored the modern parliamentary library, and toured the chamber where laws are debated and adopted.

The visit contributed significantly to enhancing students’ legal and political awareness while encouraging greater engagement in the socio-political life of the country.

Taking into account the specific nature of each discipline, assessments are organized in both test-based and practical formats, ensuring transparency, fairness, and academic integrity throughout the process.

Each academic group is completing the examinations in accordance with the approved schedule. To support effective preparation, students are provided with extensive access to the university library resources and additional academic consultations.

Beyond assessing students’ knowledge and competencies, the examination period also serves as an important opportunity to further enhance the quality of education. As part of this effort, special surveys are being conducted to gather students’ feedback and evaluate their learning experience.

The opinions, suggestions, and recommendations expressed by students contribute to the continuous improvement of educational processes and the development of a more student-centered academic environment.
