Pre-Degree Program: Capacity Building Trainings for Graduate Students

The Pre-Degree program is designed to help graduate students develop research skills and capacity for their academic pursuits. The training is divided into three modules: Qualitative Research Methods, Quantitative Research Methods and Academic Writing. Each module provides hands-on training in key skills, with a focus on practical application and interactive learning. The main objective is to introduce the concept of researching and writing skills of newly admitted graduate students. Graduate students from different majors (MAEM, MSEPE, MADIA, MATL, MBA, MSCSDA, MPA) are involved in the training. Developing students’ skills in formulating their proposals and research projects in an effective way in their early stage of writing research proposals/ projects is the primary objective of the suggested training program. The training methodology is intended to be interactive as the trainers ensure that knowledge is not only disseminated but accurately perceived and understood by the participants. And to ensure this, trainers are going to engage participants in discussions and there is always room for feedback, queries, and suggestions. These discussions and interactive sessions are supported through training material such as pre and post-test, power point presentations and handouts on participatory planning.

Moreover, Student Academic Support Services has also designed Research Methods and Academic Writing Support Program to enhance the academic success of graduate students at Gazakh Center by providing structured training in research and academic writing. The program addresses gaps in students' research skills, guiding them through qualitative and quantitative methods, literature reviews, and citation practices. Beyond short-term skill-building, the program seeks to develop long-term support programs tailored to students' needs, fostering a strong research culture and academic excellence.
