Abstract
The paper takes stock of contemporary higher education in Central Asia, with emphasis on Kyrgyzstan and Tajikistan, and Afghanistan.

Policy recommendations cover five areas: regulation, skills, research, scientific culture, and business. Policy planning in these areas will support the development of science, technology and innovation in higher education. The Institute of Public Policy and Administration is part of the Graduate School of Development, University of Central Asia (UCA).
