Department of "Higher Mathematics and Modeling"

Brief History

The history of department begins in 1934 due to opening Mining and smelting institute there was organized department of "High mathematics and theoretical mechanics".

The first head of department in 1934-1935 was V. I. Volovik. Then in 1935 it was Ermek Alimkhan - a graduate of the Tomsk Polytechnic Institute. In 1937-1941 and 1943-1952 the department was headed by docent N. S. Starkov. In 1941-1943 the department was managed by doctor of physics and mathematics sciences, professor N. I. Akhiyezer, in 1952-1962 by professor S. I. Gorshin, in 1962-1972 by docent O.M. Khaymuldin, in 1972-1979 by docent U.K. Kalizhanov, in 1979-2000 by professor E.M. Khairullin

In 1995 "Applied mathematics" department was opened and headed by doctor of physical and mathematical sciences, professor A. S. Sakabekov. In 1999 the department was taken the status of the releasing department and began preparation in the specialty: "Interdisciplinary applied mathematics". In July, 2000 "Applied mathematics" and «High mathematics» departments were integrated into "Mathematics" of Natural and humanitarian institute of al-Mashani. The first head of department became professor A. S. Sakabekov. In 2002-2004 the department was managed by doctor of physical and mathematical sciences, professor A. B. Tungatarov and in 2004-2016 by professor O.S. Satybaldiyev. At present, chair of the department of «Mathematics» is candidate of physical and mathematical sciences, docent, professor of KSAM Keltenova R.T.

Teachers of the department annually participate in the contest "The best teacher of the year" and win government grants of MES. The following teachers were winners: E. A. Kasymov in 2006, K. A. Haseinov in 2005 and 2006, E. Zh. Aidos in 2006, Zh. O. Otarbayev in 2006, O. S. Satybaldiyev in 2007, E. M. Khairullin in 2009.

"Mathematics" department was the leading organization for the defense of candidate and doctoral theses in the specialty: 01.01.02 - "Differential Equations and Mathematical Physics". It prepared bachelors in the specialty: 510230 - "Applied Mathematics and Computer Science" with the qualification "System Programmer, Mathematician-Engineer", an expert in mathematical modeling and forecasting.

In 2007 a new specialty 050705 "Mathematical and Computer Modeling" was opened at the department. Graduates receive an academic Bachelor’s degree in engineering and technology. In September 2008, the department opened the Master's program in the specialty: 5М070500 - "Mathematical and Computer Modeling".

Currently, the Department of Higher Mathematics employs 24 full-time teachers, including: doctor of physical and mathematical sciences - 1, candidates of physical and mathematical sciences and associate professors - 14, PhD - 1, with a master's degree - 5, part-time teachers - 3.

To improve the quality of teaching mathematics, teaching staff of the “Mathematics” department regularly attend training seminars on new educational innovative technologies.

Nurlan Dairbekov based the school of mathematics and cybernetics in 15th March, 2019. Our school relates to the Institute of information and telecommunication technologies. At the same time the department of “Mathematics” was included to the SMC. Also, «Sigma Lab» and «Cuda Lab» laboratories. The «Sigma Lab» and «Cuda Lab» laboratories also became part of the school of mathematics and cybernetics.

The School of Mathematics and Cybernetics opened the new educational program “Cybernetics and Artificial Intelligence” in 2019. This program is taught on Bachelor, Master degree and PhD.

In September 2021, the Department of Higher Mathematics was established on the basis of the School of Mathematics and Cybernetics. The department is part of the School of General Education. The head of the Department of Higher Mathematics is Ualiev Zhomart Razkhanovich.

At 01.09.2022 in connection with the reorganization of IBO the department of "Higher Mathematics" became part of the Institute of Automation and Information Technology and is called "Higher Mathematics and Modelling". From the department of "Engineering Mechanics and Modeling" were transferred three educational programs:

1. 6B06103 - "Mathematical and Computer Modeling";

2. 7M06105 - "Cybernetics and Artificial Intelligence";

3. 8D06104 - "Cybernetics and Artificial Intelligence."

Since then the head of the department "Higher mathematics and modeling" associate professor Ualiev Zhomart Razhanovich.

Today the department has 25 full-time lecturers, from them: Dr.-M.S. - 2, Ph.-M.S. and associate professors - 13, PhD - 1, 6 master's degree, combination - 5.
