Shakhzoda Tuychieva, a Â鶹´«Ã½ student, was named to the 2023 class of the American Bar Association (ABA) Section of Dispute Resolution fellows.

The fellowship promotes careers and leadership in the field of dispute resolution — a term that encompasses a variety of strategies to provide an alternative for resolving conflicts and claims outside of court, which can be costly and limit the participation of involved parties.

Fellows complete a project with a committee during their tenure and are expected to remain active within the section in the long term. Tuychieva will serve on the Women in Dispute Resolution committee, which serves as a professional development and networking resource for women in the field.

Tuychieva, a graduate student assistant for the University Center for International Studies, will also attend the section’s annual alternative dispute resolution conference, which is the largest of its kind, in May.
