CAU Students Visit Bangladesh under the Guidance of Professors and Meet with Nobel Laureate Muhammad Yunus

Students of Central Asian University (CAU) continue to affirm the university’s leadership in preparing future entrepreneurs and innovators in the region.

As part of developing their own startup project, a group of students, under the guidance of CAU professors, visited Bangladesh, where they had the unique opportunity to meet one of the most influential figures of our time — Nobel Peace Prize laureate Muhammad Yunus. This landmark visit was a major event for the students and a symbol of how the university nurtures talent and creates unique opportunities for their growth.
Muhammad Yunus, currently the head of Bangladesh’s interim government, is a recognized authority in the field of social entrepreneurship. Yunus’ contribution to the development of microcredit and social entrepreneurship has had a profound impact on the global economy, providing millions of people with the opportunity to escape poverty. Meeting him was not just a chance to meet a great leader, but also an invaluable opportunity to receive practical advice from a true pioneer in social economics.
Practical Education in Action
International trips and meetings like this are part of the university’s strategy to create an innovative educational environment, where students not only learn theory but also implement their ideas in practice with the support of world-class experts.
The visit to Bangladesh allowed the students to not only learn about the success story and practices of one of the world’s most influential entrepreneurs but also to broaden their horizons by adopting his experience and insights.

Central Asian University actively promotes international internships and trips that enable students to step onto the global stage and build valuable connections. Unique encounters, such as the meeting with Muhammad Yunus, inspire students to keep working on their projects with renewed energy. It’s a great opportunity to understand how to succeed in real-world business and turn ideas into successful startups, all while remaining mindful of social responsibility.
