BP translates five more international textbooks into Azerbaijani

BP today presented the Azerbaijani translations of five additional international textbooks, bringing the total number of BP-transferred, internationally recognized academic resources for Azerbaijan"s universities to 29.

According to Report, this initiative is part of BP"s broader educational programme aimed at enhancing the quality of teaching and learning at local universities by providing access to world-class academic materials, knowledge, and expertise. It marks another significant milestone in BP"s long-term commitment to educational development in the country.

Addressing the event held today to publicly present the new editions, Bakhtiyar Aslanbayli, BP"s vice president for the Caspian region, said: "With the presentation of this new set of five books, we are proud to conclude one of BP"s most meaningful educational initiatives in Azerbaijan. Over the years, this project has brought 29 of the most widely used international textbooks to our academic community – each carefully selected in collaboration with local university faculty to meet the real academic needs of our institutions.

"These books are more than just translations - they are a bridge to global knowledge. By making these high-quality resources available in Azerbaijani, we aimed to help the country"s universities embrace international standards in their teaching and learning processes. We hope BP"s book gifts will make a real difference by making a lasting and positive impact on generations of students and educators."
