Jalalabad State University (JASU) was established by Presidential Decree on 2 April 1993 as a state educational institution, making it one of the first government universities in independent Kyrgyzstan. Located in Jalalabad city, the capital of Jalalabad province, it has grown from a specialist training institute into a comprehensive multi-disciplinary university offering medical, engineering, law, and agro-industrial programmes.
