Welcome to the World of Sociology! AUCA Celebrates the Annual Initiation of New Students!

October 14, 2025

On October 10, the Sociology Department proudly held its traditional annual event Ìýthe Initiation of New Sociology Students. This cherished tradition marks the beginning of our students’ journey into the fascinating world of sociology, where curiosity meets critical thinking and social awareness.

The event featured an inspiring address by Timothy O’Connor who shared thought-provoking reflections on the power of sociological thinking in understanding today’s complex and ever-changing world. Galina Gorborukova, Head of the Sociology, warmly welcomed the new students, emphasizing that sociology is not only an academic discipline but also a vital profession that shapes the understanding and transformation of society.

The Sociology Department at AUCA is known for its vibrant academic community, active student research, and engagement with real-world social issues in Kyrgyzstan and beyond. Our students participate in research projects, conferences, and community initiatives that prepare them to become future sociologists, policy experts, and social innovators.

We are proud to see our new sociologists begin their journey: Ìýcurious, passionate, and ready to explore the world through a sociological lens. Here’s to a great year ahead.
