Internship Program for Students of the Department of Far East Studies at Shinhan Bank Kazakhstan JSC

One of the most reliable and long-standing partners of the Department of Far East Studies at Al-Farabi Kazakh National University is Shinhan Bank Kazakhstan JSC. Every year, the bank provides scholarships to seven outstanding students from socially disadvantaged backgrounds, supporting their education and professional growth.

In addition, for over 10 years, the bank has been offering internship opportunities to final-year students and hiring the most promising graduates. As of today, 12 graduates of the Korean Studies program at KazNU are employed at Shinhan Bank Kazakhstan JSC.

As part of the 2024–2025 academic year internship program, the Department of Far East Studies has sent five students to complete their internships at the bank, two of whom will have the opportunity to secure full-time employment upon graduation. During the internship, students will gain hands-on experience in banking operations, explore the specifics of the financial sector, and apply their university-acquired knowledge in practice. They will participate in financial analysis, interact with clients, and develop essential skills for working in an international financial institution.

The internship at Shinhan Bank Kazakhstan JSC is a unique opportunity for students to gain valuable professional experience and enhance their competitiveness in the job market. Many graduates who began their careers through internships at the bank have successfully built careers in finance, international business, and economic analysis.

The Department of Far East Studies expresses its sincere gratitude to Shinhan Bank Kazakhstan JSC for its long-standing partnership, continuous support of students, and significant contribution to their professional development. We look forward to further collaboration and expanding opportunities for students in international financial institutions.
