From March 2 to 13, 2026, professor, \u0441andidate of medical sciences F.Rakhimzhanov\u0430, head of the department of microbiology at M. Urazalin Semey Medical University, participated in an academic mobility program at the department of microbiology, virology of S.D.Asfendiyarov Kazakh National Medical University.<\/p>\n
The purpose of participation was to enhance scientific and pedagogical experience and to develop academic cooperation between the universities.<\/p>\n
Within the framework of the program, a 72-hour academic module titled \u201cPrivate Microbiology, Virology, and Parasitology\u201d was delivered to second-year students of the \u201cMedicine\u201d educational program.<\/p>\n
The educational process was structured using modern pedagogical approaches focused on developing clinical thinking and integrating theoretical knowledge with practical skills. The teaching methods included problem-based learning, clinical case analysis (case-study), demonstration and interpretation of laboratory techniques, interactive learning formats, teamwork, and formative assessment tools.<\/p>\n
This model ensured a high level of student engagement and led to significant learning outcomes. Students developed competencies in selecting and interpreting laboratory diagnostic methods, enhanced their clinical reasoning in the context of infectious diseases, and strengthened their teamwork and evidence-based decision-making skills.<\/p>\n
The implementation of the academic mobility program served as an effective platform for knowledge exchange, improving the quality of education, and strengthening interuniversity cooperation.<\/p>\n
