ISSAI Summer Research Program won an award for the Student Research Event of the Year 2022. The award was presented by the President of Nazarbayev University Mr. Shigeo Katsu.

The Summer Research Program is an initiative of the ISSAI team that first took place in the summer of 2021 and has been held every summer since. The main goal of the program is to give students from all over Kazakhstan the opportunity to gain hands-on experience working on AI projects, acquire knowledge and skills in the field of AI, and gain real-world experience working with data scientists. The program lasts approximately two months during the summer, when students typically have their summer vacation.

To be admitted, applicants must go through a selection process. The students with the best results and academic performance are then selected. This year, we received applications from universities, such as Eurasian National University, Kazakh British Technical University, Suleyman Demirel University, Yale University, Nazarbayev University, Skolkovo Institute of Technology, Payame Noor University, Al-Farabi Kazakh National University and others.
