The Tashkent Automobile and Road Construction Institute was established in Tashkent, Uzbekistan to cover the high demands for professionals in the transportation and automobile field.

About the Institute

The Tashkent Automobile and Road Construction Institute (TARCI) is known as the only one and unique institute in Central Asia which focuses on training highly qualified professional engineers on automobile and road construction fields. It was first established during Soviet times by the edict of Uzbek government number 697 on 27 December of the year 1971 and by the edict of "Ministry of Higher and Secondary Education Affairs" number 27 on 21 January of the year 1972 under the base of automobile-road faculty at "Tashkent Poly Technical Institute". The first academic year at the institute started on 1 September 1972.

The Tashkent Automobile and Road Construction Institute is well known as one of the leading universities of Central Asia in fields of auto-constructing, automobile transports, road and airport construction. The campus of the university is fully supplied with modern rooms to hold classes, with rooms for experimental subjects and a techno park.

There are 3 academicians from "Uzbek Academy of Sciences", 4 representatives of Uzbek sciences, 38 doctors of sciences, who give their lectures at the university.

There are four faculties at the university and till 2006 the Tashkent Automobile and Road Construction Institute had a special faculty for gifted students. However, nowadays this faculty is closed, meanwhile gifted students are having the chance of studying at the libraries and scientific centers under the institute's administration. Lectures at the institute are mainly given in Uzbek and Russian languages, but gifted students are given chance to have lectures in English language.
