In a significant stride towards academic excellence, 217 Kazakh students have been granted international scholarships and places in the "Scientific Internships" program, as reported by CMN.KZ. Among these recipients, 68 individuals have been selected to conduct their scientific internships at leading global scientific and research centres.
The full list of scholarship recipients and scientific internship awardees can be found on the CMN.KZ website.
The breakdown of the scholarships reveals that 67.7% of the students will focus on natural and technical sciences, while 32.3% will delve into social and humanities. A total of 167 students will pursue master's degrees, 13 will enter doctoral programs, and 37 Kazakh students will embark on professional internships.
Although specific data on the total number of Kazakh students receiving international scholarships and scientific internships in the 2020s is not explicitly quantified, some relevant partial information has been uncovered. For instance, around 300 Kazakh students were awarded Türkiye Bursları scholarships for the 2024–2025 academic year.
Moreover, various scholarship programs within Kazakhstan support international and Kazakh students across undergraduate, graduate, and PhD levels in diverse fields such as Humanities, Business, Social Sciences, STEM, Medicine, and Public Health. Notable examples include scholarships at Nazarbayev University and KIMEP University, which cover tuition, stipends, and medical insurance.
Over 12,000 Kazakh students are currently enrolled in universities across Türkiye, primarily supported through government and international scholarship programs like Bolashak and Türkiye Bursları. This indicates a substantial level of international student mobility supported by scholarships.
However, the total number of students enrolled in Kazakhstan’s higher education institutions is around 592,700 in 2023-2024, but no breakdown of how many received international scholarships or internships is given.
In conclusion, while a precise quantitative and categorical breakdown of Kazakh students receiving international scholarships and scientific internships is not explicitly available, the data suggests a growing trend of Kazakh students pursuing their academic and professional goals abroad.
Pursuing their academic and professional growth, the 217 Kazakh students granted international scholarships and placed in the "Scientific Internships" program are delving into various fields of education-and-self-development, including learning natural and technical sciences, social and humanities, as well as pursuing master's degrees, doctoral programs, and professional internships.
To further expand their horizons, over 12,000 Kazakh students are currently enrolled in universities across Türkiye, demonstrating a significant commitment to international learning opportunities.
