Chairman of the Board – Rector of Al-Farabi Kazakh National University Zhanseit Tuimebayev took part in a meeting between President of the Republic of Kazakhstan Kassym-Jomart Tokayev and the rectors of leading German universities and heads of research institutes.

In his speech, Kassym-Jomart Tokayev particularly highlighted the achievements in educational cooperation between Kazakhstan and Germany.

“Today, 45 Kazakhstani universities cooperate with approximately 100 German partners. Around 2 000 students from Kazakhstan are studying in Germany. Currently, more than 30 branches and partner representative offices of foreign universities operate in Kazakhstan”, -  the President said.

The Head of State shared his vision for further cooperation. He proposed three key areas of partnership aimed at moving from the exchange of knowledge to its joint creation.

“First, we should expand joint educational programs and dual-degree programs between our partner institutions. It is important to create new opportunities for students and researchers in both countries to work together. In this regard, I propose launching a special educational exchange program that will help strengthen academic ties between our countries”, - Kassym-Jomart Tokayev said.

 

According to the Head of State, the third area of partnership is technology transfer. In this context, Kassym-Jomart Tokayev invited German entrepreneurs to establish engineering laboratories and technology transfer centers at joint institutions, expressing Kazakhstan’s readiness to support such initiatives through co-financing.

In conclusion, the Head of State called on the leaders of leading universities and research institutes in Germany and Kazakhstan to combine the potential of the two countries to implement new projects.
