Study Abroad in Uzbekistan
Study abroad in Uzbekistan means all of Uzbekistan, with its long and rich history, is your classroom. For many centuries, Central Asia was the center of the economic and intellectual world. Through trade and conquest, the civilizations of this land absorbed Persian, Greek, Arab, Turkic, and Slavic influences. These influences are still visible in the many massive monuments and delicate traditional arts.
Travel to Uzbekistan means being transported to a great, forgotten empire filled with sights unlike any you have ever seen. Uzbekistan offers wonder, inspiration, and a fresh look at history and the world around you. SRAS programs in Uzbekistan emphasize in situ lectures and experiences, immersing you in history and culture. You will be well supported by SRAS and its partners in achieving your study abroad goals.

What's It Like to Study in Uzbekistan?
SRAS programs in Uzbekistan are held onsite in multiple locations with participants staying in centrally located, usually-boutique hotels. Each location has a different feel to it – Tashkent is more modern while Bukhara and Khiva are well preserved cities with histories running back several hundred years. These and other sites provide a comprehensive picture of the country.
SRAS will provide you with materials on the resources you’ll need on the ground. And, if you ever need help with anything while abroad on one of programs, your onsite coordinator will be there to help.

At Stetson, we’ve used SRAS to arrange all of our student study abroad trips for the past five or six years. During that time we’ve sent dozens of students on summer- and semester-long programs in Moscow, St Petersburg, Nizhny Novgorod and Irkutsk. In every interaction I’ve had with them, SRAS has been prompt, reliable, knowledgable, courteous and quick to lend a hand when needed.

Just yesterday my student successfully defended her honors thesis on environmentalism around Lake Baikal, a project that would not have been possible without the fieldwork that she conducted on her SRAS study abroad program in Irkutsk. I hope to see more such projects in the future and will keep directing students to SRAS programs!
