I, Kurbanova Aipara Djoldasovna, was born on April 25, 1974, in the city of Nukus, Republic of Karakalpakstan.
In 1996, I graduated from Berdakh Karakalpak State University with a degree in Chemistry. In 2004, I defended my PhD dissertation in the specialty 02.00.10 — Bioorganic Chemistry.
In 2022, I was awarded the academic title of Associate Professor in the specialty 02.00.10 — Bioorganic Chemistry.
Aipara Dzholdasovna Kurbanova, Associate Professor of the Department of Chemistry at the Faculty of Natural Sciences, is actively involved in international cooperation. In 2025, within the framework of an international agreement concluded between Chirchik State Pedagogical University and St. Petersburg State University, academic mobility was introduced for the first time at Chirchik State Pedagogical University. As part of this initiative, four students were sent to study in the field of Chemistry for one semester. Considering the high position of St. Petersburg State University in the global ranking (242nd place worldwide), this represents a significant achievement of A.D. Kurbanova’s professional activity.
In addition, in May 2025, A.D. Kurbanova organized a visit to Tomsk Polytechnic University in Tomsk, Russian Federation, in order to discuss cooperation plans and sign an agreement between Tomsk Polytechnic University and Chirchik State Pedagogical University. The agreement was successfully concluded. An action plan for the upcoming calendar year has been developed, and several of its provisions have already been implemented.
Furthermore, in June 2025, a videoconference was held with researchers from the Zelinsky Institute of Organic Chemistry of the Russian Academy of Sciences in Moscow. During the meeting, cooperation plans and the signing of an agreement between Chirchik State Pedagogical University and the Zelinsky Institute of Organic Chemistry were discussed. The agreement was subsequently signed and approved. Currently, work is underway to finalize and approve the action plan for the next year.
One of the planned activities is the visit of Pavel Viktorovich Sokolovsky, Head of the Laboratory of Environmental Research and Development at the Zelinsky Institute of Organic Chemistry of the Russian Academy of Sciences, Senior Researcher (Doctor of Philosophy), scheduled for March 23–27, 2026.
At present, efforts to develop international cooperation between the Department of Chemistry of Chirchik State Pedagogical University and leading higher education and research institutions are being carried out at a high professional level.
