Higher education in Kazakhstan and Great Britain

Higher education in Britain has a long and
distinctive history. The system of higher
education in Britain includes universities,
colleges of higher education and advanced
courses in the further education. The British
educational system on the higher level is still
more selective and class-divided than
secondary education, particularly so far as the
oldest universities are concerned.
There are 91 universities and 47 colleges of
higher education today.

The two oldest universities in England are Oxford and
Cambridge. These date from the Middle Ages. Oxford is the
oldest of these two universities, it is more philosophical,
classical, theological. The history of Oxford began in 1168 that
of Cambridge – in 1209 Among the English universities Oxford
and Cambridge have a special eminence, and they are different
from the others.

11.

All British Universities are private institutions.
Every university is independent, autonomous and
responsible only to its own governing council.
Although they all receive financial support from
the state, the Department of Education and
Science has no control over their regulations,
curriculum, examinations, appointment of staff, or
the way they spend money. The number and type
of faculties differ from university to university.
Each university decides each year how many
students it supposes to admit. The admission to
universities is by examination or selection
(interviews).

12.

The general pattern of teaching is similar
throughout Britain-a combination of lectures,
small group seminars or tutorials with practical
classes where necessary. The students receive
grants. They have to pay fees and living costs but
every student may receive from the local authority
of the place where he lives a personal grant which
is enough to pay lodging and food – unless his
parents are rich. Most students take jobs in the
summer for about six weeks, but they do not
normally do outside work during the academic
session.

13.

Students who pass examinations at the
end of three or four years of study get
Bachelor’s degree. The first
postgraduate degree is normally that of
Master conferred for a thesis based on
at least one year’s fulltime work.
Universities are centers of research and
many postgraduates are engaged in
research for higher degree, usually
Doctorates.

14.

The British government does not think
to build more new universities. There is
a tendency to expand the older ones.
The basic purpose of the higher
education is to give a first-class
education and to enable their students to
reach a high standard of creativeness,
criticism and flexibility. They teach how
to increase and employ knowledge.

or complex testing (for
