The Faculty of Philology and Sport pays particular attention to research in linguistics and literary studies. Research areas being developed include Kazakh philology, linguistics, literary studies, the contemporary literary process, speech culture, textual studies and foreign language teaching methodology.
The academic staff of the Department of Kazakh Philology contribute to the study of current issues in the Kazakh language and literature, the national literary heritage and the scientific and methodological foundations of philological education.
Philological research develops students’ analytical thinking and their skills in working with academic texts, organising information and drawing scientific conclusions. Taking part in research also deepens students’ professional interest and lays the foundation for their future academic and professional development.
