The «Bulletin» journal, which showcases the research potential of a higher education institution and publishes the scholarly works of its faculty members, plays an important role. Its inclusion among the publications recommended by the Committee for Quality Assurance in Science and Higher Education of the Ministry of Science and Higher Education further enhances the academic standing and significance of the university’s journal. Accordingly, one of Abai University’s journals, the «Jurisprudence Series» has been included in this list, thereby gaining a clear status as a recognized scientific publication.

«Bulletin of Abai KazNPU. Jurisprudence Series» is a scholarly publication dedicated to addressing current issues in legal science in Kazakhstan and presenting the results of academic research. The official peer-reviewed scientific journal published by the university aims to contribute to the development of legal science in the country and strengthen academic ties between Kazakhstani and international scholars. The journal is published quarterly. It features research articles on criminal, civil, administrative, constitutional, labor, and international law, as well as legal theory and history, criminology, criminal procedure, and other relevant areas of legal studies.

The journal was included in the list of scientific publications recommended by the Committee for Quality Assurance in Science and Higher Education pursuant to Order No. 600 of the Chairperson of the Committee for Quality Assurance in Science and Higher Education of the Ministry of Science and Higher Education of the Republic of Kazakhstan dated August 14, 2026.

The Editor-in-Chief of the Jurisprudence Series is Binur Taitorina, Doctor of Law and Professor at Abai KazNPU. The Deputy Editor-in-Chief is Bakytzhan Toleubekova, Doctor of Law and Professor. The Scientific Editor is Gulnara Balgimbekova, PhD and Professor, while the Executive Secretary is Nesibeli Kalkayeva, Candidate of Law and Associate Professor.

One of the key factors ensuring the journal’s compliance with international academic standards is the international composition of its editorial board. Alongside leading legal scholars from Kazakhstan, the editorial board includes professors and researchers from universities and academic institutions in the United States, Russia, Belarus, Uzbekistan, Türkiye, and Poland. The presence on the editorial board of scholars with author profiles in the international scientific and bibliometric databases Scopus and Web of Science demonstrates the journal’s particular emphasis on the quality of scholarly publications, academic peer review, and international scientific cooperation.

It is worth noting that Abai University currently has a total of seven scientific publications included among the journals recommended by the Committee for Quality Assurance in Science and Higher Education of the Ministry of Science and Higher Education. These publications cover such fields as pedagogy, psychology, history, sociology, physics and mathematics, and political science. The inclusion of the Jurisprudence Series in this list is an important indicator of the university’s research potential in the fields of law and legal studies.
