The statement by the Head of State in his Address to the People of Kazakhstan that “The main driving force of the modern era lies in knowledge, science and advanced innovations” sets new priorities for the higher education system. In this regard, Mukhtar Auezov South Kazakhstan Research University prioritizes improving the quality of education, enhancing dual education, integrating applied research with industry and expanding cooperation with business representatives.
As part of the objectives outlined in the President’s Address, including the development of the regional economy and aligning education and applied science with industry needs, two new training classrooms have been opened at the university with the support of partner companies.
In particular, the Electrical Power Engineering classroom was commissioned with the sponsorship of Alageum Electric. It is designed to strengthen the practical training of future power engineers. Here, students can study the structure and operating principles of equipment used by energy enterprises and reinforce their theoretical knowledge through hands-on practice. In addition, a second training classroom equipped with modern electrical engineering equipment supplied by CHINT has been opened. In this classroom, students will learn to work with technologies used in industrial production and develop their professional competencies. This will enable them to acquire practical skills that are in demand in the labour market.
At the opening ceremony of the new training classrooms, Mukhtar Tolegen Chairman of the Board - Rector of the university, emphasized the importance of strengthening ties between higher education, science and industry.
"Future professionals must understand production processes, be proficient in digital technologies and be capable of solving real-world industrial challenges. Therefore, strengthening cooperation among higher education institutions, research organizations and industrial enterprises is a necessity of our time. Every initiative in this area is an important investment in the future of the country" the Rector noted.
The event continued with a business forum aimed at expanding cooperation between the university and the regional business community. Organized jointly by the university and the Shymkent City Chamber of Entrepreneurs, the forum brought together more than 100 entrepreneurs from the region.
The forum addressed key issues, including training qualified specialists to meet labour market demands, adapting educational programmes to employers needs, improving the dual education system, creating opportunities for students to undertake industrial placements and secure employment and implementing joint innovation projects between academia and business. Mukhtar Tolegen congratulated the entrepreneurs on their professional holiday and reaffirmed the university’s commitment to establishing open and productive partnerships with the business community. He also expressed the university’s readiness to jointly implement initiatives focused on workforce development, the introduction of research findings into production and the enhancement of educational programmes.
Sabira Adambekova Director of the Shymkent City Chamber of Entrepreneurs, highlighted the importance of training qualified personnel for business. According to her, the sustainable development of the regional economy depends directly on specialists with professional knowledge and practical skills. She emphasized Auezov University’s potential to train competitive professionals and expressed her gratitude to the university’s leadership for the initiative aimed at strengthening cooperation between higher education and business.
During the meeting, university researchers presented business representatives with patented scientific developments and research projects proposed for commercialization, all aimed at supporting the development of the regional economy. Students, in turn, showcased their startups in energy, pharmaceuticals, ecology and the digitalization of industrial processes.
Entrepreneurs expressed their willingness to support dual education, organize industrial tours for young people and introduce students to the operations of their enterprises. They also showed interest in supporting promising student initiatives and scientific developments, as well as exploring opportunities to fund them.
