Краткое описание

The educational system in Kazakhstan is conducted in two languages - Kazakh and Russian and consists of several levels of state and private educational establishments: infant schools, elementary (or primary) schools, comprehensive schools, colleges and academies. The constitution of the Republic of Kazakhstan fixes the right of citizens of the republic on free-of-charge secondary education which is obligatory. The constitution prohibits any discrimination on the basis of language or ethnicity and guarantees equal rights in education regardless of nationality. Children start school at the age of 7 and finish at 17. As a rule a child attends the school, located in the neighborhood.

THE GUMILYOV EURASIAN NATIONAL UNIVERSITY

 

Text: Our University

Grammar revision

 

Our University

Our University is called the Eurasian University named after Gumilyov L.N. There are a lot of different names in the science, but there are no a lot of worker of the historic conception. Lev Nikolayevich Gumilyov was one of them and looked to the historic process deeply. He pointed to the role of peoples of Eurasia- turkey-Mongolian, Slovenian, and ugro-finn. He showed that world history without the history of that people would not be full, moreover-it would be not right. He proved the meaning of the Eurasian region side by side with the West and the East. Lev Gumilyov liked to communicate with the youth, he often supported the youth in their ambitions and our university was named in his honor. Eurasian university gives a great attention to Guile’s ideas. Annually the study term begins with the lessons about Gumilyov. In 2002 in the honest of 90 years old great scientist, the head of the university suggested creating the cabinet of Gumilyov in Eurasian university and in 2004 it was   Eurasian National University named after L.N. Gumilyov (ENU) is a leading capital university of classical type.

The university was created by the decree of the President (May, 23, 1996) "Taking into account the international relationships of Kazakhstan, which develop steady, its active participating in the world processes, in order to transform the ideas of the Eurasian Unit into a life. First of all there is the idea of Eurasia in the universities foundation.” Today ENU is the embodiment of that idea, university for the future. Eurasian University is under the control of the President as it is the University of the 21 century.

The Eurasian University is big. There are many buildings in it. Some of them are new and some are old. The main building is one of the biggest buildings of the university. There are nine floors in it. On the ground floor and other ones there are two cloak-rooms, departments, many class-rooms, well-equipped labs, a few lecture halls and many .deans offices. Могеover, the university has a great library with many spacious reading halls, or fine gym, a big dining-room and nine hostels. All of them are with in walking distance of the University.

The university has 8 institutes including mechanics, mathematics, physics, chemistry, the Kazakh and Russian languages and literature, foreign languages, history, music, law, economics, journalism, biology, psychology, engineering, architecture-building, and pedagogic. Besides teaching the university staff does a great deal of research. Many of our teachers and instructors are outstanding specialists in various fields of technology and science. Some of them are graduates of our University.

  An undergraduate program consists of a series of lectures, seminars, tutorials and laboratory classes which in total account for about 36 hours per week.

  Lectures are given to large groups of students. Seminars and tutorials are much smaller than lecture classes are on a one-to one-basis (one member of staff and one student).

  Students pass examinations at the end of each term. On completion of studies the student presents a graduation thesis or takes the finals.

  A higher school diploma means high academic and professional (general and specialized) training. It also stands for high cultural standards.
