University of Agder (NO-UiA)
KIMEP and UIA have collaborated for a number of years. The partnership was solidified by the project "CPEA-2012/10112 UiA-KIMEP University: Excellence in teaching on global business and international relations" carried out from 2012 till 2015. Student mobility was a key part of this project, and UiA students have continued to go on exchange at KIMEP after the project concluded in 2015.
In January 2018, KIMEP CCASC together with UiA School of Business and Law started a 2-year project: “Unpacking China in Central Asia: digital resources for students and companies”. It will boost the teaching of a number of courses at KIMEP University through the development of a comprehensive and up-to-date package of digital resources on Chinese investments in Central Asia. This resource will be developed in cooperation with the private sector and will contribute to the public debate on Chinese investments in Kazakhstan and the rest of Central Asia and the ways to make them beneficial for the development of these countries. – held a number of senior management positions in banking and finance and is highly experienced in oil and gas and manufacturing, took part in the design of strategies for a number of large financial and manufacturing companies.
