This article explores modern innovative methods of teaching the Russian language in the higher education system of the Republic of Kazakhstan. In the context of active digitalization, the transition to a competency-based learning model, and the formation of a multilingual environment, the requirements for the quality of students' linguistic training are increasing. In modern conditions, language competence is viewed not only as the ability to use the language in typical communicative situations but also as a key component of the professional and academic mobility of future specialists.

The article provides a detailed analysis of methodological approaches such as interactive learning, project-based activities, elements of gamification, the use of digital multimedia resources, and collaborative interaction. The advantages and disadvantages of these methods are considered, and their pedagogical relevance is substantiated, taking into account the specific context of Kazakhstani education. The use of these methods has contributed to increased student motivation, the activation of cognitive activity, the development of critical thinking, and collaboration skills.

The study is based on the analysis of theoretical sources, the results of pedagogical observation, and student surveys, which made it possible to identify the most effective tools for forming language competence. The article concludes that the systematic implementation of innovative methodologies contributes to the qualitative renewal of the Russian language teaching process and is a necessary condition for enhancing the competitiveness of graduates of Kazakhstani universities.
