On February 1, 2023, during a meeting of the 9th Intergovernmental Commission between Great Britain and Kazakhstan, focusing on “Enhancing interstate relations through state cooperation in higher education” in London, a Memorandum of mutual cooperation was signed between Yessenov University and Canterbury Christ Church University.
This agreement led to an academic internship opportunity for a team of doctoral students from the Economics program, MBA/EMBA Yessenov University undergraduates, and their supervisors at Canterbury Christ Church University in the UK, starting on January 20, 2024.
This internship has been incorporated as an essential element in the research activities of Yessenov University’s doctoral students. Throughout the internship, participants familiarize themselves with the university’s activities, engage with its research laboratories, attend lectures by esteemed professors, and collaborate with their academic mentors on sections of their doctoral dissertations, utilizing the resources of Canterbury Christ Church University’s library.
