WIUT Student Research Society Conference 2025
On 28 April 2025, Westminster International University in Tashkent successfully held the Student Research Society Conference 2025 under the theme “Research for a Sustainable Future”.
The conference consisted of three key sessions: Paper presentations open to all students across various disciplines, the presentation stage of the New Academic Talent 2025 competition, featuring shortlisted Level 6 and Level 7 WIUT students and the awarding and closing ceremony of the Research Skills Development Course competition.
This event provided an excellent platform for young researchers to share their ideas, engage in academic discussion, and contribute to addressing global challenges through innovative research. Participants also had the opportunity to strengthen their research skills, critical thinking, and professional networks.
