This event is part of a series of meetings aimed at connecting students and graduates of our university with companies that could become employers for them. Such events are also necessary to introduce the parties to each other at an early stage of potential cooperation and to find out what skills and knowledge graduates will need to succeed in international arena.

It is important for Kazakh-German University to make timely conceptual changes and adapt our educational programs to meet the requirements of today's ever-changing economy.
