StatisticsStatistics (cont.)(cont.)
Challenges Challenges Massification of higher education (insufficient quality of
training specialists). Mismatch between needs and supply, increasing “diploma
unemployment” Lack of specialised institutes and polytechnic schools (65%
of HEIs are classical universities and 35% are academies and institutes offering special training.
Management system is centralized and bureaucratic, not fit for market economy.
Lack of partnership between HEIs and industry, lack of enterprise based practical work
Developments in higher education in Developments in higher education in Kazakhstan Kazakhstan Framework parameters to the content of education. New
State standards adopted based on Dublin descriptors. Increased optional component (BA to 55%, Master to 70%,
PhD to 90%). Changes in university governance towards collegial system. International accreditation Development of strategic international networks and
partnerships Polylingual education implemented in over 40 HEIs. Autonomy of HEIs (from 2015 onwards), corporate
governance Further improving the system of financing to ensure
efficient operation of HEIs Enhancing the role of students in HEI management
