In the final round, they competed against the team from the East China University of Political Science and Law.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">The prestigious international competition, now in its eighth year, brought together 14 university teams from Kazakhstan, China, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, and Uzbekistan.

The entire process is conducted in English and aims to develop a wide range of practical skills among future legal professionals. During preparation, students analyse complex legal issues, study a specific area of law in depth, prepare written submissions for either the claimant or respondent, and enhance their advocacy and public speaking skills before experienced judges. This year\u2019s panel included Chief Justice of the AIFC Court Lord Burnett of Maldon, AIFC Court Judge <strong>Sir Stephen Richards<\/strong>, and AIFC Small Claims Court Judge <strong>Patricia Edwards<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">It is noteworthy that <strong>MNU holds the record for the most victories in the AIFC Court Moot<\/strong>. The university team <strong>has reached the final round seven times and claimed the championship title in 2021\u20132024<\/strong>. Additionally, this year\u2019s silver medals earned the finalists the opportunity to undertake internships at the AIFC Court and the International Arbitration Centre.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">Maqsut Narikbayev University congratulates its students on their outstanding achievement and wishes them continued success!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":38090,"template":"","news-cat":[69,33,47],"news_tag":[],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v23.4 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>MNU Students Become Runners-Up at the International Moot Court Competition - MNU<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/mnu.kz\/en\/news\/mnu-students-become-runners-up-at-the-international-moot-court-competition\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"MNU Students Become Runners-Up at the International Moot Court Competition - MNU\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Students of Maqsut Narikbayev University have won second place at the AIFC Court Moot 2025 International Moot Court Competition.
