Kazakhstan is often considered to be a country worth visiting as a tourist due to its history and nature. However, it can also be opted as a location for obtaining an academic degree and a higher education of international recognition and quality. To begin with, the country has a rather large selection of universities with proper accreditation and worldwide recognition. This includes the Al-Farabi Kazakh National University, as well as the L.N. Gumilyov Eurasian National University, which are among the popular selections in both the country as well as in the world. The country also offers a relatively wide range of subjects to study, including Economics, Management, Accounting, Information Technologies, Law & Jurisprudence, Philology and others. In addition, the tuition fees tend to be less costly compared to other countries such as Russia while simultaneously providing a higher education of excellent quality including proper training and in-depth knowledge. As a result, students will be able to find a suitable long-term job after graduation without risk of having their degree rendered invalid due to improper training.
