Kozybayev University was visited by the Ambassador of India - Dr. T.V. Nagendra Prasad. A reminder: 6 years ago, the first students from India arrived to our university to study in the program "General Medicine". Since then, there have been 2 graduations of young specialists.

The leadership of our region, our university pays great attention towards the implementation of this project. Students study only in English. Classes are taught by both our teachers, including practicing doctors, and professors from foreign universities. Kozybayev University has significantly improved its material and technical resources.
