The goal of establishing the FabLab Bishkek laboratory is to expand opportunities for higher education and individuals by helping them acquire digital manufacturing skills, which will lay the foundation for startups, increase productive capacity, and overcome poverty. Over the course of three years, KOICA, in collaboration with SIFO, plans to allocate US$1.247 million to achieve these goals.
UNICEF's international UniSat project
Organization of a series of educational training sessions on 3D satellite modeling for girls from secondary schools, lyceums, and universities in the Republic as part of an international forum on satellite construction.
Dozens of girls from schools in Bishkek were trained under this program, and a team was then formed to participate in the activities of the joint UniSat educational program project. Girls from Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, and Uzbekistan launched three nanosatellites to analyze air pollution.

Отчет по программе академической мобильности
Report on the Academic Mobility Program
Dear students and university administration,
My name is Matisakov Kurmanbek Ulanovich, a student of group MiR-1-23 at the Kyrgyz State Technical University named after I. Razzakov. I would like to share my impressions of my stay at the Samara National Research University named after Academician S. P. Korolev in Russia, where I spent half a month thanks to the academic mobility program. After receiving an invitation from the university, I began the process of preparing the necessary documents. It is worth noting that Samara University is renowned for its high reputation and the quality of education it offers, as well as for its academic achievements.
From the moment of arrival, the learning experience took place in a new educational and cultural environment for me. Initially, some time was needed to adapt to the academic process and daily rhythm, but thanks to the supportive atmosphere and open communication with program participants, this adaptation went quite smoothly. The education was organized at a high level, combining theoretical training with a practice-oriented approach.
During the course, special attention was paid to engineering thinking, technical solution analysis, and project activities. This format of learning allowed me to gain a deeper understanding of the specifics of designing unmanned aerial systems and to expand my professional knowledge in this field.
The most vivid and valuable experience for me was meeting and communicating with participants from 11 different countries. The international environment not only broadened my horizons but also provided a unique opportunity for intercultural communication, exchange of perspectives, and sharing of life values. This interaction made participation in the program particularly rich and meaningful.
