The scientific potential of the department is 61%, the average age indicator is 47 years

Currently, 3 doctors of science, 3 candidates of biological sciences, associate professors, 5 teachers with the degree of doctor of philosophy (PhD) in biological sciences are providing students with in-depth knowledge of specialized subjects.

The professors of the department prepared the winners of the state scholarship named after Ulugbek and Islam Karimov. Also, the talented students of the department won 1st, 2nd, and 3rd places in the Republican Science Olympiad in Ecology.

Today, the team of professors and teachers of the Department of Ecology and Botany has 120 students in the bachelor's education 60710400 - "Ecology and environmental protection (by branches and branches), 70710402 - Ecology (by branches and branches) 10 people in the specialty and 21 people in the specialty 70510101-Biology (Botany) have been giving in-depth knowledge to their masters.
