Kazakhstan ranks among the top three global leaders in the percentage of women researchers, with 54% of all scientists in the country being women!

We take great pride in our faculty members, researchers, and students who contribute to the advancement of science every day!

A shining example is Dr. Almagul Mentbayeva, Assistant Professor at the Department of Chemical Engineering and Materials Science at the School of Engineering and Digital Sciences, Nazarbayev University. For over 15 years, she has been conducting research in the fields of gas sensors and hydrogen energy. Her work plays a crucial role in developing innovative technologies and sustainable energy solutions in Kazakhstan.
