Academic Advising Each academic department and school and the Advising Center offer academic advising for various programs of study. Students consult their academic advisors for information on program requirements and career options in their majors. Every student has an academic advisor and is expected to meet with the advisor at least once a semester. Academic Quality To ensure the integrity and quality of Tajikistan International University’s academic standards, the University has attracted a group of Academicians whose educational credentials can not be challenged. These individuals serve in the capacity of Faculty, using the same standards they set for students in their own classrooms. Tajikistan International University students have the opportunity to work with professors from traditional universities. Curriculum Courses Curriculum design and development is essential to the University’s philosophy of providing the adult learner with quality post-secondary education. Tajikistan International University reviews the curricula and regularly updates the course content to remain current with the most recent trends and theories. Academic Honesty It is the responsibility of the student to uphold the academic integrity of the University. Using unauthorized material, attempting to benefit from another’s work, and similar behavior which defeats the intent of an examination or other course assignment is unacceptable. Cheating on an examination, improper acknowledgment of sources in essays, and using a single essay or paper in more than one course without permission are considered very serious offenses, and are grounds for disciplinary action and/or expulsion. Transfer Credit Students transferring from other universities or colleges must be in good standing with those institutions, and must meet Tajikistan International University’s minimum scholastic standards. Students must have official transcripts sent directly to the Office of the Registrar at Tajikistan International University. Transcripts will not be accepted if hand-delivered or stamped “issued to student”. If the transcript is not issued in English, these documents must be translated and bare an official college or university seal and/or be notarized by a qualified authority. Official transcripts must be on file with Tajikistan International University prior to the submission of the student’s first exam.
