Department History

The history of the formation of the department “Technological machines and transport” is closely connected with the history of the previously existing departments “Metallurgical machines and equipment” (formerly “Mechanical equipment of metallurgical plants”) and “Mechanical equipment of industrial enterprises” (formerly “Construction and road machines”).

The department “Mechanical Equipment of Metallurgical Plants” (later “Metallurgical Machines and Equipment”) was founded in 1975 and the first graduates of mechanical engineers in the number of 16 persons were carried out. The first head of the department was cand. tech. sc. Krivobokov Vladimir Nikolaevich, who worked in this position until 1978. The department was headed at different times: associate professor Burdov Alexei Ivanovich (1978), cand. tech. sc. Ilkun Vladimir Ivanovich (1978-1983, 2000-2001); cand. tech. sc. Atamanov Victor Fedorovich (1983-1996); doct. tech. sc. Ichev Boris Ruskovich (1996-1998); cand. tech. sc. Kimanov Bolat Mazhitovich (1998-2000); cand. tech. sc. Kuznetsov Boris Sergeevich (2001-2005); cand. tech. sc. Izmesteva Olga Alekseevna (2005-2006), cand. tech. sc. Nogayev Kayrosh Abilovich (2006-2024). Since 2024, the department has been headed by Bestembek Yerbol Serikuly, Candidate of Technical Sciences, Associate Professor.

In connection with the expansion of the training profile in 2008 the department changed its name and became known as the Department of Technological Machines and Transport (TM&T). Currently, the department provides training of personnel under the educational programs of bachelor's, master's and doctoral studies.
