Doctor of Law, Professor Abrasulov Yermek is currently undergoing a scientific internship in Germany at Osnabrück University as part of the "500 Scientists" program, which started in March 2024.

In the first two weeks of his stay, Professor Abrasulov actively engaged in both research and educational activities. At the Institute of European Studies, he is conducting comparative research on judicial systems, working closely with leading German experts, including Professors Hans Schulte-Nölke, Friederick Zoll, Gerhard Geske, and Stefan Rupprich.

One of the key objectives of his internship is an in-depth study of the legal status of academic staff in Germany. Professor Abrasulov carefully examines the legal status of German professors, which includes unique privileges and responsibilities as public servants. Of particular interest is the opportunity for professors to assume judicial positions without additional qualifying exams, which markedly distinguishes the German system from the Kazakh one.

Moreover, Professor Abrasulov has made a significant contribution to strengthening ties between Kazakhstan and Germany by participating in international meetings with Kazakh researchers and legal scholars from Germany. Notably, a meeting was held with the director of the Institute of European Law, Hans Schulte-Nölke, and Professor Rupprich, during which future collaboration between the law faculties of both countries was discussed.

Professor Abrasulov's participation in international research projects not only advances legal scholarship in Kazakhstan but also helps improve legal education at the L.N. Gumilyov Eurasian National University. The knowledge and experience gained will positively impact the training of future Kazakhstani lawyers and further strengthen academic ties between universities.
