The launch of Coventry University Kazakhstan has been celebrated as a significant advancement by the country's leaders. Located in the capital city of Astana, this campus is the result of a partnership between Coventry University and Primus Education LLP, with plans to accommodate up to 3,500 students. The official opening event featured attendees from government, business, education, and media sectors, who enjoyed guided tours of the new facility.
The national postal service, Kazpost, has also created 5,000 special stamps celebrating the opening of Coventry University Kazakhstan. The blue stamp includes a skyline image of Astana, as well as the university logo and the words ‘Astana 2024’.
The links between the cities of Coventry and Astana continue even further as both are cities of peace and reconciliation, with the Kazakhstan capital also home to the Palace of Peace and Reconciliation – a 62-metre-high pyramid which serves a non-denominational spiritual centre.
"Coventry University Kazakhstan was founded to support the brightest minds of our country through high-quality British education. We offer a British diploma that is recognised internationally without the need for students to leave their home. As a university we are committed to creating a brighter future through groundbreaking scientific research. Coventry University has become a dynamic and innovative institution, with its educational programs ranked among the best in the world. These programs are now accessible to students in Kazakhstan", said Miras Daulenov, President of Coventry University Kazakhstan
