KazNU and Istanbul University agreed to expand partnership

During a working trip to Turkey, Chairman of the Board-Rector of Al-Farabi Kazakh National University Zhanseit Tuimebayev held a meeting with the Rector of Istanbul University Osman Bulent Zulfikar.

The parties exchanged views on further development of partnership and holding joint conferences and symposiums.

During the conversation Zhanseit Tuimebaev noted that cooperation between KazNU and Turkish universities is expanding every day.

"In 2022, within the framework of the official visit of the Head of State Kasym-Jomart Tokayev to Turkey, a branch of KazNU in Istanbul was opened. Various international conferences, meetings and roundtable sessions are held in the higher education institution. Also, the 11th President of Turkey Abullah Gul delivered a leadership lecture in KazNU. In addition, today we have established cooperation with almost 50 leading universities of Turkey. I am sure that the results of such partnerships will contribute to the development of science and education of brotherly countries. This work will be continued in the future," said Zhanseit Tuimebayev.

In turn, Rector of Istanbul University Osman Bulent emphasized that he intends to further increase cooperation between the two universities, and is ready to support all initiatives.

It should be noted that in Turkey Al-Farabi KazNU together with the Farabi-Eurasia Scientific Center of Istanbul University held an international conference "Kemel Tokayev - public figure, outstanding writer, famous journalist", dedicated to the 100th anniversary of the founder of the detective genre in our country Kemel Tokayev.
