I am sure that the graduates will realize all their ideas, will continue to study and help implement ambitious plans in the agro-industrial complex of our republic. We are glad that the project was successful. It is especially pleasant that among our students there are KSAU graduates in basic education, who have shown great interest in our unique program,” Director Lyalya Kudermetova said.
