At the beginning of the meeting, the deans presented reports on their work and highlighted their achievements. The discussion, held in an open format, focused on the university’s development priorities and ways to improve educational programmes.

The Faculty of Arts, one of the university’s key structural divisions, highlighted its efforts to strengthen international cooperation. Cooperation agreements have been signed with 27 leading higher education institutions in 12 countries, and joint projects are being implemented. In addition, 21 educational programmes have successfully undergone full accreditation, demonstrating the quality of education provided. Student creativity and engagement also remain a priority, with six student self-governance organisations actively operating.

The Faculty of Physical Education and Initial Military Training also presented its achievements and innovations in the field of education to the university leadership. In particular, the Initial Military Training educational programme has maintained a leading position in the ranking of the Independent Agency for Accreditation and Rating (IAAR) for the past three years. The Faculty has also established agreements with 15 schools in Almaty for pedagogical internships. This provides students with valuable opportunities to strengthen their theoretical knowledge and develop professional skills.

At the Foundation Faculty, international students and ethnic Kazakhs from abroad are enrolled in three areas of study. These include training teachers of natural science subjects in English, preparing representatives of the Kazakh diaspora abroad for admission to higher education institutions, and language courses.
