Recently, robotization and automation cover all new industries and spheres of life. Higher education is not an exception. The purpose of this work is to study the process of robotization of higher education and determine its significance for bridging the gap between the university education market and the work market. This paper uses the method of comparative analysis, analysis of mathematical data, as well as other methods of studying the problem. A study was conducted by the example of Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan, during which the level of robotization of the education system, problems in introducing robotization into the education system, and the advantages of robotization, as well as the current state of the education system of these countries were established. In the countries of Central Asia, higher education plays an important role in economic development and labour market stability. The value of the work lies in the comparative analysis and characterization of the two countries of Central Asia in the context of the robotization of higher education.
