On June 15, 2010 Ms Lena Milosevic, Director of the British Council in Kazakhstan, visited the UoB and delivered an excellent talk entitled ‘Kazakhstan: Big Country, Big Story’ to an audience of staff and students of the University of Birmingham which raised their awareness about opportunities for academic collaboration between the UK and Kazakhstan.
She also met with Professor Edward Peck, Head of the College of Social Sciences and Professor Cillian Ryan, Director of Education in the College of Social Sciences, and discussed the current projects and the possibilities of their further development. In particular, Ms Milosevic suggested to organise in the near future a visit by the Kazakhstani Minister of Education to the University of Birmingham in order to enhance the collaboration between the two universities.
