    Purpose – The aim of this work is to enhance our understanding of career commitment by examining the mediating role of research self-efficacy on the link between professional research network and career commitment, and the moderating role of career aspiration. Design/Methodology/Approach – Survey questionnaires will be used to collect data from faculty members of 10 leading research universities of Kazakhstan. Research limitations/implications The generalizability of the results is limited, and the cross-sectional data cannot draw any clear causal inference among variables. Practical Implications – Educational managers may benefit from this study by applying various organizational practices to manage career commitment. Originality/Value – This research contributes to a more complete understanding of how professional research network may enhance research self-efficacy which in turn facilitates career commitment. In addition, this paper extends research on the moderating role of career aspiration to the context of career commitment.
