The Center for research in social sciences (CRISS) strives to advance social science research at AKFA University.
The aim of the Center is to create a comfortable environment for scholars, policy experts, collaborators, and talented students to conduct novel, high-quality and policy-relevant academic research.
The Center promotes first-class research work, trains scholars to global standards, and offers research and data-driven advice to decision-makers in the public and private sectors.
We particularly welcome scholars with interdisciplinary research interests to promote collaboration and publish academic findings at leading academic journals indexed in Scopus and Web of Science.
We conduct academic conferences in various fields of social sciences and produce academic journals, which are linked to the important dimensions of ongoing socio-economic reforms in the Republic of Uzbekistan.
