According to the results of the ranking of the best universities in Asia in 2025 – QS Asia University Rankings 2025, Kazakh National University took the 29th place.

According to Ben Sauter, Senior Vice President of QS Quacquarelli Symonds, Kazakhstan's strengthening position in the ranking of the best universities in Asia – QS Asia University Rankings reflects its commitment to meeting the highest standards of higher education and increasing international recognition.

22 Kazakhstani universities are improving their positions, three universities are maintaining their positions, and one university, the Kazakh National Women's Pedagogical University, is returning to the ranking after a one–year break.

Three leading universities of the country appear in the top hundred of the rating, which, along with Al-Farabi Kazakh National University and L.N. Gumilyov Eurasian National University, now includes Satbayev University, which is located on the 89th line.

Sergey Khristolyubov, Regional Director of QS, noted that "The number of Kazakhstani universities in the ranking of the best universities in Asia – QS Asia University Rankings has increased to 35. This is an absolute record in the history of higher education in the country".

Thus, the high quality of the educational environment remains the main competitive advantage of Kazakhstani universities participating in the rating. The main opportunity for further promotion of Kazakhstani universities in the ranking remains participation in international scientific collaborations, increasing scientific productivity and expanding their influence on the modern scientific agenda.
