History of the chair of Simulation Training
The Simulation Training Department was established in 2024 at the Simulation Center of Samarkand State Medical University in accordance with modern requirements of medical education. The creation of the department marked a significant step in the modernization of medical education in Samarkand, aimed at improving the quality of training for healthcare professionals.
The department’s activities focus on developing practical skills in students through the use of advanced simulation technologies. The primary goal is to train highly qualified medical specialists capable of effectively applying their knowledge in real clinical settings.
At the department, students acquire essential skills such as clinical reasoning, decision-making in emergency situations, and communication skills for interacting with patients. Training is conducted using modern simulators, structured clinical scenarios, and interactive classes. The department actively implements an interdisciplinary approach, integrating simulation-based training into various medical disciplines, including internal medicine, surgery, obstetrics and gynecology, pediatrics, and emergency medicine.
Since its establishment, the department has been staffed with qualified and experienced clinician-educators. The department’s faculty regularly undergo training in international professional development courses.
Currently, the Simulation Training Department is recognized as one of the leading centers in Uzbekistan for implementing innovative methods in clinical education.
Since December 2024, the department has been headed by PhD Khasan Ismoilovich Ibragimov.

Spiritual and educational activities of the chair of Simulation Training
Spiritual and educational activities at the chair of Simulation training are carried out in accordance with an approved plan. Various cultural and educational events, sports competitions, and marathons are organized to commemorate historical dates and national holidays. Every Thursday, an “Information Hour” is regularly held, during which students and department staff are informed about Presidential Decrees, Government Resolutions of the Republic of Uzbekistan, and current news. Meeting minutes are recorded accordingly. Assistant N.M. Isayeva is responsible for overseeing spiritual and educational activities at the department.
Conversations and celebratory events are organized with students in connection with significant dates such as Independence Day, Constitution Day, Navruz, and May 9 – Day of Remembrance and Honor. The department's assistants also actively participate in the general cultural and educational events held at the university.
A curatorship system has been introduced at the department, where each curator works regularly with the students in their assigned group based on an approved plan. Curators conduct educational conversations with students and actively participate in events aimed at enhancing their spiritual development, promoting a healthy lifestyle, and fostering professional interest.
Department staff are also engaged in activities at the student dormitories, organizing lectures, interactive meetings, and masterclasses on engaging topics. In collaboration with students, sports competitions and wellness activities have been implemented to support physical and mental well-being.
