"Nooruz" is one of the most important holidays in Kyrgyzstan, which translates literally as "new day" and is celebrated by the International Higher School of Medicine (IHSM) every year. Nooruz is a holiday that unites not only the departments and students of the IHSM, but also the people of Kyrgyzstan into a large, friendly circle.

The main symbol of Nooruz is the traditional dish sumolok, which is believed to give people special vitality and energy. The holiday is celebrated with an open-air festival including traditional folk dances, songs, and theatrical performances.
