Westminster International University in Tashkent (WIUT) is the first international university located in the heart of Central Asia to offer a Western-style education with UK qualifications. WIUT offers a wide range of programmes, all in English, academic and research activities, as well as social events. Independent learning is an essential part of the UK education system, and WIUT is no exception. WIUT students can often be found in the Learning Resource Centre (LRC), computer rooms and innovation labs, working on projects and discussing course content with their peers. Other times, students may be found making the most of the University’s exceptional sports facilities or engaging in the many social and cultural events organized by the Students’ Union. Westminster International University in Tashkent (WIUT) is committed to enriching its students' education with practical experiences in the workplace that expand their horizons and prepare them for the professional world. This commitment came to life through the "Month of Field Trips" program, an initiative by WIUT's Career Development Centre, providing students with opportunities to explore diverse industry sectors. 1. Fido-Biznes 2. Hilton Tashkent City 3. InterContinental Tashkent
During the first half of October, the Career Centre orchestrated the first field trip, taking students to Fido-Biznes, a leading developer and supplier of information systems in Uzbekistan. At Fido-Biznes, students delved into the intricacies of the IT industry, understanding employee benefits and engaging in discussions with department leaders about mobile app developments, project management and potential career prospects.
The second field trip took place at Hilton Tashkent City. Students gained insights into the hotel's operations, exploring career prospects and learning about professional development within the dynamic hospitality sector.
The third event in the "Month of Field Trips" took students to the luxurious InterContinental Tashkent, where they explored the hotel's various amenities and learning about potential career opportunities.
