Tashenev University seeks to develop cooperation with one of China’s leading higher education institutions

On November 3–4, 2026, representatives of Tashenev University paid a working visit to Wuhan, People’s Republic of China, where they participated in an international education exhibition and held negotiations on developing cooperation with the Wuhan Institute of Technology.

On November 3, the university representatives participated in China Education Expo 2026, an international exhibition organized by the National Center for Higher Education Development. Tashenev University was represented by Aigerim Erikovna Ussipbekova, Head of the Career Guidance Department, and Seil Zhibek, Chief Specialist of the Department of International Relations.

During the exhibition, the university representatives studied international practices in higher education and considered opportunities to establish contacts with foreign universities, promote educational programs, and expand academic partnerships.

On November 4, the university delegation visited the Wuhan Institute of Technology, founded in 1972. It is one of the prominent higher education institutions in China’s Hubei Province, providing training in nine major fields, including engineering, natural sciences, management, economics, humanities, law, arts, medicine, and education.

During the visit, representatives of the two universities discussed prospects for developing educational and scientific cooperation. Particular attention was given to implementing dual-degree programs, developing academic mobility for students and faculty members, and carrying out joint initiatives in educational programs with similar content and areas of study.

According to Aigerim Ussipbekova, Head of the Career Guidance Department at Tashenev University, establishing partnerships with Chinese universities is an important step toward expanding the university’s international opportunities.

“International cooperation is becoming increasingly important in higher education. In particular, implementing dual-degree programs, developing student academic mobility, and incorporating the experience of foreign universities into the educational process are effective ways to improve the quality of education. During our meeting with representatives of the Wuhan Institute of Technology, we discussed specific proposals in these areas. Moving forward, we are interested in establishing mutually beneficial cooperation that takes into account the distinctive features of the educational programs offered by both universities. This will provide our students with new opportunities to gain international academic experience, acquire additional competencies, and broaden their professional prospects,” Aigerim Ussipbekova noted.

The working visit marked an important step toward strengthening Tashenev University’s international relations, expanding partnerships with Chinese higher education institutions, and implementing joint initiatives in education.
