Highly-qualified personnel is a crucial factor in improving the efficiency of agricultural production. S. Toraighyrov PSU has been preparing specialist in agriculture since 2004. Last year, we had our first graduates in Zootechnology and Forestry. Although the Faculty is relatively new, many of our graduates are already making their contribution to the development of the agricultural sector. They hold leading positions in Rubikom LLP. For example, Yuriy Piotrovskiy started working there as a zootechnician-breeder and now he works as a chief zootechnician. D. Melikhov works as a zootechnician-breeder at Pobeda LLP. N. Borodavkin is an agronomist at Galitskoye LLP. Zh. Makenova and A. Baygelova are teachers at the Agricultural Engineering College. A. Aydarkhanov, A. Mikhaylichenko, D. Shakeyev work as research fellows at Pavlodar Research Institute of Agriculture.

Some of our graduates decide to continue their education by entering a Master's degree program. I. Kaptyur, M. Seyfulina and A. Abilshaikova are now Master's degree students at S. Toraighyrov PSU. Bachelors in Zootechnology S. Aben, D. Sharapiyev and D. Smagulov now study at the graduate school of Kazakh National Agrarian University. There were only 4 grants available for this program, and 3 of them were won by our graduates. This is yet another evidence of high quality of training at our University.
