Towards the Integration of Tourism and Education: Orientalists Visit Schools in Boysun District
Boysun district is one of the unique regions of Uzbekistan, distinguished by its priceless historical and cultural heritage, natural beauty, and ancient traditions. The tourism potential of this area attracts not only foreign tourists but also generates great interest among local youth.
The Tourism Working Group of the Department of Tourism at Tashkent State University of Oriental Studies continues its educational campaign aimed at promoting tourism and education. The latest visits took place at secondary schools No. 13 and No. 25, as well as at the specialized school for exact and natural sciences in the Boysun district.
During the event, the head of the Tourism Department, Ch. Khusanov, delivered detailed presentations about the district’s historical monuments, traditional handicrafts, breathtaking landscapes, and modern opportunities in the field of tourism.
These initiatives, carried out in local schools, are designed to foster students’ interest in the tourism sector, help them understand the value of cultural heritage, strengthen their national identity, and guide them toward making informed career choices in the future.
As part of the seminar-training sessions held at the schools, the Department of Tourism introduced a short-term training course titled “Fundamentals of Tour Guiding and Customer Service Skills” for students. Additionally, the youth tourism club “Tourism & Travel Club” was established.
The creation of such specialized courses and clubs not only sparks students’ interest in tourism and education but also encourages them to explore the history and culture of Boysun more deeply. Moreover, it motivates them to choose meaningful careers and contribute to the future development of their homeland.
Through this initiative, Tashkent State University of Oriental Studies aims to promote both education and the development of tourism based on national values, while most importantly instilling a sense of patriotism and historical identity in the hearts of young people.
At the end of the event, school principals expressed sincere gratitude to the members of the Tourism Working Group and the university administration for their efforts and support.
