Chairman of the Board – Rector of Al-Farabi Kazakh National University Zhanseit Tuimebayev held an online meeting with Fuat Erdogan, representative of the Turkish Agency for Cooperation and Coordination (TIKA).
The Rector of KazNU expressed gratitude to the representative of TIKA for their interest in cooperation and noted that cooperation between Turkiye and Kazakhstan in the field of education plays an important role in the cultural and humanitarian field. Today, more than 11,900 students from our country study in Turkey, which confirms Kazakhstan's active participation in the educational programs of this country.
The rector also stressed that KazNU is a research university with 16 faculties, 8 research institutes and 140 laboratories. In 2026, the university entered the Top 200 universities in the world according to the international QS WUR rating, taking 166th place. This indicates the high level of education and scientific research at the university.
KazNU actively cooperates with 46 universities and organizations in Turkiye, which contributes to the development of scientific and educational exchange. Every year, students and teachers of the university undergo internships and professional development in Turkey. Currently, 105 students from Turkiye are studying at KazNU, which confirms the growing interest in the university's educational programs. In addition, in 2022, a branch of KazNU opened in Istanbul, which implements a higher professional education program and promotes the integration of science and education at the international level. KazNU is also actively involved in the Erasmus+ program, which allows students and teachers to share their experience and knowledge with leading universities in Turkiye.
