On May 3, 2023, the ceremony of signing a cooperation agreement between the National Television and Radio Broadcasting Corporation of the Kyrgyz Republic (NTRC) and the Kyrgyz State Technical University named after I. Razzakov (KSTU) took place.
Such cooperation is an important form of interaction between the university and the enterprise, which allows to combine the resources of KSTU and NTRK to achieve common goals and objectives in the preparation of highly qualified specialists in the field of digital television and sound broadcasting.

The agreement provides for the opening of a branch of the Department of Infocommunication Technologies (ICT) of the Institute of Electronics and Telecommunications (IET) of KSTU on the production base of NTRС.
The opening of a branch of the Department of ICT IET in the building of the NTRC will allow students to acquire the necessary practical knowledge and skills directly in existing studios in the production of television programs using modern information and telecommunication technologies.
Involvement of experienced employees of the NTRС to conduct practical and laboratory classes using television equipment and devices will allow students to better assimilate educational materials in the relevant disciplines of the bachelor's degree program "Radio Engineering".
It should be noted that it is one thing when practical classes with students are conducted using laboratory stands in a university, and a completely different effect from training using existing equipment in real production conditions, that is, complete immersion in production processes will allow the student to better understand and present his profession in real conditions of future work.
