Capstone Project

Since April 2016, KAZGUU University together with Penal Reform International (PRI) in Central Asia has been implementing the Capstone Project, in which students of the University conduct research on human rights. Based on the results of the research, it is planned to prepare proposals and recommendations for the improvement of national programmes in the field of penal law, criminal procedure law and international law.

In general, the Capstone Project aims to improve the quality of the RK educational system through the formation and development of students’ critical thinking skills as well as planning, organising and conducting research.
