Kimep has been under fire from former administrators, faculty and students. The former administrators and faculty have charged that KIMEP is mismanaged and that it systematically defrauds foreign faculty. KIMEP strongly contests these allegations and has posted a letter rebutting them, as well as the results of its 2006 Faculty Satisfaction Survey, on its Web site. The charges can be found at the following websites:
