One of the important steps of a student on the way to becoming a specialist in the field of pharmacy is to gain practical experience. As Confucius said, “Tell me and I’ll forget, show me and I’ll remember, let me do it and I’ll understand.” We understand that practice is an important link for consolidating theoretical knowledge. A curriculum has been created for students of specialty 6B10101 “Pharmacy”, which includes both theoretical and practical training. Starting from the 3rd year, students gain work experience in the pharmaceutical field in both food and industrial enterprises.
The laboratory for quality control and standardization of medicinal substances should be equipped with all necessary devices and technologies for the manufacture and evaluation of the quality of medicines.

In Kazakhstan, there is a research and production center “Phytochemistry”, which develops domestic medicines. This center synthesizes and extracts substances of plant origin to combat socially significant diseases. Before manufacturing the drug, the biological efficacy is evaluated and checked for the presence of secondary substances of plant origin, such as alkaloids, flavonoids, terpenoids, sesquiterpene lactones and others. Manufacturing and testing of medicines is a laborious process that requires time, compliance with all regulations and work in an aseptic zone.
The main purpose of the internship is for stmain purpose of the internship is for students to put their theoretical knowledge into practice, develop professional skills and competencies, and gain work experience in real-world settings. During the internship, students learn how to control the quality of medicines, get acquainted with standardization methods and regulatory documentation, and acquire skills in working with modern laboratory equipment.
The internship lasted 15 days and was informative for the students. They learned a lot about domestic medicines. For example, this company has developed the immunomodulatory and antitumor drug Arglabin from wormwood, which grows in Karaganda.
The heads of the practice, PhD, associate professor Sivolobova O.A. and senior lecturer Tutai D.S., held a final conference at the end of the internship, where students shared their impressions and talked about innovative approaches used iThe heads of the practice, PhD, associate professor Sivolobova O.A. and senior lecturer Tutai D.S., held a final conference at the end of the internship, where students shared their impressions and talked about innovative approaches use
