Welcome to our family!

AlmaU has been in the education market for over 35 years—it is the oldest private university in the country, the first business school in the Republic of Kazakhstan, and a pioneer in business education in the CIS.

The history of AlmaU began with a small management school back in 1988. The school became the first to produce a new generation of managers for our young country. In 1996, when the first stage of development was successfully completed, the Almaty School of Management (ASM) was transformed into the International Academy of Business. And 25 years after its creation, the IAB entered the next stage of its upward spiral — the Academy received the status of a UNIVERSITY.

In accordance with the new AlmaU strategy, in 2014 the university set a course to create a model of an entrepreneurial university.
