Employment of graduates

2.Monitoring the Employment of Graduates

For the purpose of systematically monitoring the employment outcomes of its graduates, Osh State University has developed an online electronic survey based on the Google Forms platform.
The survey is available in Kyrgyz, Russian, and English, and is open to all university graduates from 1980 to 2025.

Key features of the survey include:

• real-time display of the number of graduates who have participated in the survey;
• automatic generation of percentage indicators and charts for each question;
• the ability to identify where graduates are employed, in which sectors, and in what numbers;
• support for continuous monitoring of graduates’ integration into the labor market.

This tool serves as a modern digital mechanism for analyzing and making managerial decisions regarding the employment of graduates at Osh State University.

At Osh State University, an average of about 6,000 students graduate each year. However, the analysis conducted shows that a significant number of graduates do not obtain employment immediately after completing their studies. This is due to a range of factors and objective circumstances, including the need to prepare documents, participate in public and private competitions and examinations, complete internships, and search for suitable job vacancies.

In this regard, the employment indicators are as follows:

In order to implement the resolutions of the Cabinet of Ministers of the Kyrgyz Republic dated June 30, 2022, No. 355, and February 20, 2015, No. 80, Osh State University annually conducts the placement process for graduates of pedagogical specialties who studied in state-funded (budget) programs, assigning them to schools across the regions of the Kyrgyz Republic.

The placement process involves the district education departments of the Osh Region, the Education Department of the city of Osh, as well as representatives of schools. Based on available vacancies and applications submitted by the education departments and approved by the Ministry of Education and Science of the Kyrgyz Republic, 94% of graduates are employed each year.
