In the current year, a regional engineering laboratory of structural and biochemical materials is being created at the university (funding is 200 million tenge).
The most modern laboratory units for distillation of oil, determination of the fractional composition of crude oil, determination of the rheological properties of oil road bitumen that meet European standards have been purchased. Some installations have no analogues in Kazakhstan, so the apparatus for clear distillation of petroleum distillates was noted at the International Exhibition "Education-2007". About 20 thousand students study at the university in 83 specialties.
A Linguistic Center has been opened at the university, where students and teachers are trained in foreign languages.
The educational process is organized in such a way that the student, when mastering the practical part of the disciplines of the educational program, implements the main part of practical training in the mode of real work in production. Modern learning technologies have been introduced into the educational process: a credit system, case technology, interactive and innovative teaching methods.
The progress of students reached 90%, the number of excellent students increased to 11%. In 2002, as an experiment, the teaching of special disciplines in English was introduced in certain specialties.
This is also due to the increase in the number of state grants allocated to technical specialties. In 2007, our university won 2375 grants, including 900 in technical specialties, which allowed our university to take 3rd place in the country in terms of the number of grants.
