AI & CS Global Pathways | ECA 🧬
Dear community,
As many of you know, this group was originally created to support applicants from Eastern Europe and Central Asia who were interested in applying to MBZUAI.
Over time, many of you have successfully applied, received offers, or moved forward with other strong AI and Computer Science opportunities around the world. I’m genuinely proud of what this community has achieved.
Since I am no longer affiliated with MBZUAI, I want to be fully transparent about the next step for this group.
Rather than closing it, I’ve decided to expand its purpose.
Going forward, this space will focus on:
• AI & Computer Science programs worldwide
• Scholarship opportunities
• Application strategy and preparation
• Visa and admissions updates
• Research-oriented and applied universities across the US, UAE, France, Germany, Malta, Spain, and beyond
I am currently collaborating with several international universities that offer strong AI and Computer Science programs in these regions, and I will share verified information and relevant opportunities that may benefit you.
The mission remains the same:
To help talented students from our region access high-quality global education.
And regarding the past history of this group 🤓 — nothing to worry about.
All previous posts and materials remain accessible. You can still review everything shared earlier. I truly believe this broader focus will bring even more value to all of you.
If you are planning to apply for AI or CS programs and need guidance, feel free to message me @ucounselor privately with:
• Your degree level (Bachelor/Master/PhD)
• Academic background
• Preferred countries
Let’s build smart, strategic opportunities together.

#job
A job post to share from our great AI partners.
Note! You'll have to be based in 📍Tashkent, Uzbekistan.
Backend Developer (Python / GIS / High-Load)
Tashkent | Babur Street 14
email your cv to: [email protected]
Salary negotiable (guaranteed higher than your current verified income)
We are looking for a backend engineer who thinks architecturally, understands performance, and can design production-grade systems handling large-scale spatial data.
This is not a CRUD project.
This is a GIS platform with spatial logic, ArcGIS Enterprise integration, and high-load architecture.
Tech Stack:
Python 3.10+ | FastAPI | PostgreSQL + PostGIS | Redis | Celery | Docker | S3 / MinIO | ArcGIS REST API
What You’ll Do:
• Design scalable API architecture
• Implement spatial validations (ST_Within, ST_Distance, GIST indexes)
• Integrate with ArcGIS Enterprise (query, geometry filters, nightly sync)
• Build background jobs and queue systems
• Optimize SQL for large datasets
• Ensure system performance and fault tolerance
Requirements:
✔️ 3+ years of backend development experience
✔️ Strong PostgreSQL expertise (indexes, explain analyze, query optimization)
✔️ Solid understanding of concurrency and asynchronous processing
✔️ Experience building production-level APIs
✔️ Experience with Redis / Celery
Nice to have: GIS / Esri experience, geospatial data handling, high-load systems.

'Hi, I have the GPA 3.2 + willing to study computer science undergrad program in Germany. What program can you suggest?'
- CS programs in the EU with deep internship integration could be the strongest fit. If your CGPA was lower at school, you should make it better with the BS degree, here some programs you may consider in Germany. Full scholarship unlikely, but some partial tuition is realistic.
"• Can I stay and work after graduation in EU?
• How long is post-study work?
• Is work permit realistic?"
Your EU degree must align with immigration strategy. If you are willing to study & then live in Europe - Malta could be the best choice to log into the EU professional career system. Thus you can access the formal resident docs, earn an accredited degree, gain some hands on exp from EU brands.
