This article examines the ongoing processes of strengthening the financial support of higher education institutions in Uzbekistan. In the context of educational reforms, particular attention is paid to the diversification of funding sources, the expansion of financial autonomy, and the introduction of market-oriented mechanisms in university financing. The study analyzes state budget financing, extra-budgetary funds, international grants, and public–private partnership models as key instruments for improving financial sustainability. Additionally, the role of effective financial management and accountability in enhancing the quality of higher education is highlighted. The findings emphasize that strengthening financial support contributes to institutional development, academic competitiveness, and the overall modernization of the higher education system in Uzbekistan.
