About
Narxoz is one of the leading multidisciplinary universities in Kazakhstan with a managerial bias and a historically strong economic base. It is located in Almaty, the financial center of the country and has a legacy dating back over 50 years.
Founding
Narxoz University was founded in 1963 in an era of grandiose plans, large-scale reforms and great achievements. Following the spirit of the times, the progress of the University was rapid — only a few years passed from the Foundation to the all-Union recognition.
Recognition
The history of the formation of Narxoz traces the entire process of the origin and development of the system of higher economic education in Kazakhstan. The university became the Alma-Mater for several generations of successful economists, financiers, managers, and businessmen. Having won respect and recognition at the earliest stage of its existence, after half a century, the University adheres to high standards of work and strives for new outstanding achievements.
Development
In the new Millenium Narxoz began a new life. In 2002 our University went through the process of corporatization and was one of the first Kazakhstani universities to adopt a strategic planning tool. The new approach to management is driven by the need for rapid and flexible adaptation to constantly changing market demands and rapid response to environmental challenges.
Today, Narxoz is a regional leader in Economics, Business Education, Social Sciences, Big Data and Law. Our cooperation numbers over 70 partners around the world, including the TOP universities in the USA, Europe and Asia, whereby Narxoz successfully implements double degree and exchange programs, as well as international projects. Narxoz is one of the first universities in the country who set targets for sustainable development in accordance with the UN SDGs, and also conducts continuous research in this field.
Narxoz is currently engaged in an ambitious transformation to become a largely English-medium institution with an inward orientation toward positive social transformation while serving as a cultural, educational and intellectual bridge to the outside world.
University has entered the TOP 250 Emerging University in Europe and Central Asia in 2019 and the TOP 400 Most Impactful University on the UN Sustainable Development Goals by THE Impact ranking in 2020. Additionally, Narxoz is member of numerous international associations as AACSB, EFMD, AmCham, British Chamber of commerce in Kazakhstan etc.
For more than 50 years, Narxoz has been an alma mater for many successful people in Kazakhstan and far beyond its borders.

Our research fellows conduct research, publish articles, promote academic disciplines on gender economics in educational institutions of Kazakhstan and Central Asia.
- Silk Road Case Center
Teaching with case method has become the de-facto pedagogy in Management Education. Through cases, students not only get introduced to the concepts, frameworks and theories but also get exposure to the managerial challenges and in the process, they learn the approaches to understand, analyze and resolve managerial issues. However, as managerial issues are situated not only in the organizational contexts but in broader socio-economic-political-cultural contexts – 'standard cases' don't always work to give students the required exposure. Hence, as the complexity in the business environment increases in a connected global economy, the need for cases offering exposure to varied contexts is ever increasing.
- SUSTAINABLE KAZAKHSTAN RESEARCH INSTITUTE (SKRI)
Kazakhstan was one of the 193 countries from around the world that adopted the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development. These goals are an unprecedented commitment by world leaders from around the globe to put sustainability as the overarching theme for human development encompassing the triple bottom line: society, environment and the economy. The new agenda is people-centered, universal, transformative and integrated. It calls for action by all countries for all people until 2030 in five areas of critical importance: people, planet, prosperity, peace and partnership.
- Eurasian Center For Economic and Legal Research
The Center has been established in response to the need to enhance international relations of the Republic of Kazakhstan in the field of science, economics and law; to build the academic capacity of the faculty of the School of Law and Public Policy; to develop solutions of diverse economic and legal problems within interstate associations, in which the Republic of Kazakhstan is an active participant; and to conduct joint academic and economic projects with academics and research entities on the international level.
