About us
The School of Engineering provides a student-centered holistic approach to educating engineers who will be future leaders of Kazakhstani industry sectors. The life of an engineering student is filled with exciting activities. Besides lectures, tutorials, laboratories, and traditional coursework, at NU School of Engineering, there are many project-based assignments, competitions, exhibitions, workshops, industry visits and organized problem-solving discussions that will enable our students not only to “think outside the box”, but also to gain valuable experience. In addition to the learning process, our students take part in international scientific and social projects, in sports and other activities.
Engineers and scientists create and innovate for a better future, with strong social responsibility. As an engineer you can always see what you did as a tangible impact in the society and the planet

Testimonials
Read moreFor me, NU School of Engineering was a place where I could make an impact and turn my ideas into tangible solutions. Some of the most precious memories for me are the team assignments. We had a chance to code a robot to exit a maze, develop a project plan for an off-shore oil platform or build an exoskeleton to help people of determination. With a great support of our professors, I was also able to participate in the summer research program in Saudi Arabia, which gave me a better understanding of my field and shaped my future career path.
I graduated from NU in 2016 with BEng in Mechanical Engineering.
Right after that I moved to Russia to join Continental AG, major tire manufacturer. I had worked in Kaluga, a city in Russia where Continental has a plant, for 9 months and after that I moved to headquarters of Continental in Hannover, Germany. I worked there for another 9 months. While working at Conti I realized that I would prefer to do research and decided to pursue PhD.
NU equipped with knowledge, skills and friends. I learned how to learn here and this is the most important skill. The friends I made at NU are the best friends I could hope for.
The School of Engineering at NU gave me fundamental knowledge in core disciplines. As a part of my current studies in PhD program I had to take advanced core classes and my performance was quite high. This implies that I had sufficient background from NU, indeed it helped me a lot, I never had to worry about my grad classes.
