This year, 1,055 scholarships have been allocated for the Bolashak program, 500 of them are intended for domestic researchers, so that they can acquire new knowledge and take part in joint work with foreign colleagues in the world’s leading research centres and universities.

“All applicants who have successfully passed the competition for these five categories of internships, after being awarded a scholarship by the decision of the national commission for training personnel abroad, are exempted from providing collateralized property as a guarantee upon concluding a pledge agreement. It is enough for them to provide two individuals as guarantors,” said Ainur Karbozova, President of the Centre for International Programmes.
