The Department of Organization of Pharmaceutical Work actively supports student engagement in research through its scientific society, "Defenders of Pharmacy." The club provides a platform for enthusiastic and motivated students to conduct independent scientific work under the guidance of faculty members.
The department's student scientific activities are primarily carried out through regular meetings of the "Defenders of Pharmacy" club. In addition to internal sessions, the club organizes and participates in sectional meetings held within the framework of international and republican student scientific-practical conferences hosted by Samarkand State Medical University.
Students involved in the club prepare and present research papers on current socio-humanitarian issues, as well as philosophical, methodological, and bioethical challenges in modern medicine and pharmacy. These works are submitted to national scientific research competitions and contribute to the development of students’ analytical and academic skills.
The student scientific club functions according to an approved annual work plan, ensuring systematic and goal-oriented research activity. As of now, 51 students from the Faculty of Pharmacy are active members of the "Defenders of Pharmacy" scientific society.
Throughout the academic year, under the guidance of Assistant B.Kh. Akhmedov, who is responsible for the Information Technology direction within the department, regular meetings of the student scientific circle are held. These sessions involve active participation from both department staff and students specializing in pharmaceutical information technologies. Each meeting is formally documented, with illustrated minutes recorded for archival and reporting purposes.
Members of the circle consistently submit scientific articles to both national and international journals in collaboration with faculty members. They also prepare theses and research papers for presentation at scientific and practical conferences organized across the Republic of Uzbekistan, the Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS), and other international venues. These activities help students apply and enhance their pedagogical and scientific communication skills.
Scientific presentations, discussions, and workshops conducted by the department’s academic staff are actively organized as part of the circle's regular activities. A monthly action plan is developed for the circle’s work in Information Technology, and the outcomes of each session are documented with detailed and illustrated minutes for every topic covered.
In addition to academic activities, students also take part in educational visits to pharmaceutical manufacturing facilities and pharmacies, which serve as valuable experiential learning opportunities. For instance:
- A visit to the “Integra” pharmaceutical manufacturing enterprise in Samarkand allowed students to observe the production process of liquid dosage forms.
- At the “Dori-Darmon” LLC, students became familiar with regulatory documentation and operational procedures essential for pharmacy practice.
- A trip to the warehouse department of “Meros Pharm”, a regional pharmaceutical enterprise, left a lasting impression and provided insight into the logistics and storage of medicinal products.
These practical exposures enhance students' understanding of real-world pharmaceutical processes and foster stronger links between theoretical knowledge and industrial application.
Students of the Department of Organization of Pharmaceutical Work actively participate in international conferences, presenting their scientific articles and theses. Participants of the student scientific circle (TIJ), in collaboration with their academic mentors, have collectively published over 60 scientific articles in various national and international journals.
Our students have also taken part in the International Scientific and Practical Conference titled “Fundamental Practical Medicine and Pharmacy Achievements”, where they presented multiple theses and earned honorable recognition for their contributions.
To date, students of the department have achieved more than 20 top placements in both republican and international Olympiads, showcasing their academic excellence and commitment to research.
