HISTORY
Politecnico di Torino, Italy created in 1859 and being one of the leading technical universities in Europe, is characterized by an active combination of the educational process with scientific and applied research. It includes 18 faculties and 19 research centres and laboratories, which are the basic research centres of large automotive and other companies. The opening in Uzbekistan of a new institution of higher education on the basis of such a European university in accordance with generally recognized international requirements also fully met the goals and objectives of the National Training Program for the Republic of Uzbekistan.
In addition, other important aims of opening a new university were to attract local teaching staff to the educational process, a continuing education program for professors and teaching staff and the creation of a technology park in the TPUT structure, which will carry out research and applied development, as well as carry out implementation work the results of research on the design of cars, automobile engines, automotive parts, components, tooling, as well as the development of architectural and industrial design, energy-saving technologies, new types of building materials based on local raw materials and modern industrial automated control systems.
In order to harmonize the differences between the HE curricula in the two countries (Italy and Uzbekistan), TPUT and POLITO came to the agreement to adopt EU curriculum with some changes made for fitting it into local educational standards. One of them is to introduce additional Preparatory Year to fulfil the Italian requirements for a minimum of 12 years in LE and carry out the most relevant needs in the preparation of incoming students. Existing curricula at TPUT can be applied as a unique experienced in bridging different educational structures and be used for project goals realization.
TPUT along with other non-state educational institutions became the owner of the License to carry out educational activities in the field of higher education. This document issued by the authorized State body once again confirmed the University’s right to carry out activities for the training of specialists with higher education in the fields of mechanical engineering, automotive, information systems, construction and architecture. In addition, TPUT was one of the first universities in Uzbekistan being awarded a certificate ISO 9001 for compliance to the quality management system in training of specialists with higher education.

Exchange Student Program
Student Exchange Program – an agreement between educational institutions on the mutual exchange of students. Such programs allow university students to study and/or undergo internships abroad for 1 or 2 academic semesters. The exchange takes place on the basis of a partnership agreement between universities.
The main goals of such programs are to improve the quality of education and the development of cultural and economic ties between countries.
Turin polytechnic university has Agreements with some foreign universities.

Study on Exchange programs can be carried out both at the expense of the student and at the expense of grants allocated from various grant programs.
The main student mobility support program is the Credit Mobility Program received by the university under the Erasmus + Key Action 1 program.
Erasmus+ Credit Mobility Program
This is opportunities for students, trainees, professors, teachers, youth workers, the staff of education institutions and civil society organizations to undertake a learning and professional experience in another country.
Program “Credit Mobility” fund two-way mobility of students at all levels of Higher Education (Short cycle, Bachelor, Master, Doctoral levels). Credit mobility will be available for students across Programme countries, and to/from Partner countries for studies as well as traineeships in enterprises. The duration of the study period can be from 3 to 12 months. Prior to departure, a “Learning Agreement” setting out the program of studies to be followed will be signed by the student, the home and the host Institution. The duration of the traineeship period can be from 2 to 12 months.
This Program supports also staff, for teaching or training abroad to and from any country worldwide. Staff mobility with Partner countries will have a duration of 5 days to 2 months.
This activity between two Higher Educational Institutions (student mobility for studies and staff mobility for teaching) is based on an “Inter-institutional agreement” that has to be in place between the sending and the receiving institutions before the exchanges can start.
