This article focuses on the analysis of published research on risk management in higher education institutions. The authors believe that for effective implementation of risk management in Kazakhstani universities and the development of a concept for its scientific and methodological support, a systematic and large-scale research effort is necessary. This includes identifying the categorical framework of risk management in higher education. In this context, the authors conducted a bibliometric analysis usingthe Scopus database, as well as the methodological approach and capabilities of the VOSviewer software tool. The study of sources on the issue of risk management in universities revealed insufficient development of this topic from methodological positionsand in the applied context. Additionally, the bibliometric analysis not only identified and visualized current research directions in this field but also highlighted trends for future research in the subject areas of "risk management," "university management," and "risk management in higher education institutions."
