On December 13, DAR University, a new generation corporate university, held a festive event for IT students who started their studies in 2024. The meeting was attended by students from various IT specialties, including participants of the Tech Orda state program.  

At the beginning of the meeting, the DAR U team organized an exciting New Year's IT quiz for the students, where questions about modern technologies were combined with the theme of festive traditions. A new educational product was also presented at the meeting — the DAR Plus mobile application, created to help everyone who wants to master the in-demand IT professions.

After the official part, the students were divided into three groups to participate in the interactive game "Wish Bag". Each participant wrote down their career goal for 2025 on paper, and then drew out the wishes of the other participants in a circle. The group discussed how to help the author achieve his goal by sharing tips and experiences. The best performances of the representatives of the groups were performed in front of all the participants in the format of a short speech.  

The event ended with a friendly pizza party and networking, which allowed the students to get to know each other better and find like-minded people to work together.

The New Year's event was a pleasant occasion to celebrate the achievements of the first months of the academic year and reminded students of the importance of further career planning. Upon graduation, students will present their first projects at the MVP level, and will also be able to add real practical experience to their portfolio. 

DAR University is actively developing a career center that helps students build a successful career path. They teach you how to write a professional resume, prepare you for technical interviews, and most importantly, help graduates find jobs as junior developers. 

It is worth noting that among the 119 students of the DAR University fall semester recruited this year, 28 people are enrolled in the TechOrda program in six specialties at the Junior and Middle levels. The list of areas includes UI/UX, Web Development and Java. #Tech Orda 2024, #Astana Hub, #Dar University
