As soon as the economy of Kazakhstan is highly resource‐oriented despite numerous efforts to change the structure of the national economy, constant assessment of the scientific and innovation sphere of the country is actual and important. By way of qualitative, quantitative, comparative, and descriptive analysis 13 indicators related to science and innovations were investigated to define the level of scientific and innovative development in Kazakhstan. Science and innovation in Kazakhstan are under‐financed and state‐based financing of innovative activities seems to be ineffective, and the innovations are still unprofitable. The scientific human capital is affected by “brain drain,” when best graduates go into business or leave the country to build careers in better financial conditions. Eight indicators are found to be universal and comparable for various countries, and can be applied with the purpose of defining the level of scientific and innovative development of a country or countries. The results of the study can be applied by governmental officials for developing policies related to science and innovations. The methods, set of indicators, and findings of the study can be used by other researchers for investigating and comparing the level(s) of scientific and innovative development in other country or countries.

哈萨克斯坦科学和创新领域的融合技术

尽管为改变国民经济结构做出了许多努力，但哈萨克斯坦的经济高度以资源为导向，因此，不断评估该国的科学和创新领域是现实而重要的。通过定性，定量，比较和描述性分析，调查了13项与科学和创新有关的指标，以确定哈萨克斯坦的科学和创新发展水平。哈萨克斯坦的科学和创新资金不足，创新活动的州政府资助似乎无效，创新仍然无利可图。当最优秀的毕业生创业或离开该国以更好的财务状况发展职业时，科学的人力资本就会受到“人才外流”的影响。发现八个指标在各个国家具有普遍性和可比性，可以用于定义一个或多个国家的科学和创新发展水平。研究结果可以由政府官员用于制定与科学和创新有关的政策。其他研究人员可以使用该方法，指标集和研究结果来调查和比较其他国家/地区的科学和创新发展水平。
