Research work of the department
The scientific research activities of the Department of Urology are aimed at addressing relevant issues of modern urology, as well as developing and improving innovative methods of diagnosis and treatment of urological diseases. Training highly qualified specialists and engaging young professionals in research work are defined as the department’s priority tasks. Particular attention is paid to fostering independent thinking, scientific outlook, and commitment to national values among students, clinical residents, and postgraduate trainees. These processes play an important role in the advancement of Uzbek urology and in its worthy representation within the international urological community.
During the period from 2024 to 2026, the Department achieved significant success in strengthening its scientific potential. In particular, one faculty member defended a dissertation for the degree of Doctor of Medical Sciences (DSc), two faculty members were awarded the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) in Medical Sciences, and two staff members received the academic title of Associate Professor.
