During the exhibition, our Karaganda Technical University named after Abilkas Saginov received an offer to open a branch of the leading British university - the University of Exeter on its basis. So far, only a preliminary verbal agreement has been reached. But we hope that after detailed discussions on opening a branch, this will be confirmed by the appropriate conditions and further implementation, - explained the chairman of the board - rector of A.
