Abstract

The article is based on a study of teachers’ engagement at four universities in Kazakhstan. The changes taking place in the higher education system require the active participation of the teachers in implementing changes and improving the university's activities. This research aims to assess the level of teacher engagement based on the analysis of the survey results. The findings of the study made it possible to determine the overall level of university teacher engagement depending on age, work experience, position, and academic degree. In addition, the main problem areas that reduce involvement and the main aspects of non-involvement were identified. The study conducted by the authors claims to be a partial picture of the university teachers since it covers only two departments at each university. However, the authors formulated the main directions for increasing teachers' engagement. The article presents practical recommendations according to identified motivating and demotivating factors that influence the engagement level of the university teaching staff. The study is one of the first attempts to assess teachers' engagement levels at Kazakhstani universities. It may interest the university's management, as it will allow them to conclude the current state of affairs.
