Department of Metallurgical processes, Нeat engineering and Technologies of special materials

History 

In 1938, for the first time in Kazakhstan, the basic department “General Metallurgy” was created for the training of metallurgical engineers at the Kazakh Mining and Metallurgical Institute. Its first head was Associate Professor, Candidate of Sciences. tech. Science Baraboshkin S.N. A graduate of the Ural Polytechnic Institute, Yulia Konstantinovna Silina (teacher of the department) and Ekaterina Dmitrievna Degtyareva (laboratory assistant), who worked at the department for 40 years, took part in the organization of the first metallurgical laboratories. Doctors of Technical Sciences, professors were invited to conduct classes: Sazhin Viktor Sergeevich (later - corresponding member of the Academy of Sciences of Ukraine), Isakova Rufina Afanasyevna (corresponding member of the Academy of Sciences of Kazakhstan), Tseft Andrian Lukyanovich (academician of the Academy of Sciences of Kazakhstan), Putilin Yuri Mikhailovich ( subsequently director of the Institute of Mineral Raw Materials in Kazakhstan and the Institute of Artificial Minerals in Russia).

Disciplines were born at the department, on the basis of which the training of students was subsequently organized in a number of specialties new to Kazakhstan. Thus, on the basis of the discipline “ Metallurgy ” the specialty “Metallurgy and Heat Treatment of Metals” was organized, and on the basis of the course “ Automation of Metallurgical Processes ” a specialty of the same name appeared. The year 1980 was significant for the department, when, in connection with the training of students in the new specialty for Kazakhstan, “Physical and Chemical Research of Metallurgical Processes,” it was decided to change the status of the department: it became a graduating department.

Professors made a great contribution to the development of the educational process: Romanov L.G. – Honored Scientist of the Republic of Kazakhstan, Luganov V.A., Baikonurova A.O., Abzhapparov A.A., Associate Professors: Ishchanov T.K., Turkeev M.E., Nikiforov Yu.A., Vasilevsky O.V., Sazhin E.N., Edilbaeva G.I., Guseinova G.D., Usoltseva G.A.; engineers: Barabanov N.S., Butovchenko L.G., Snezhko L.G., Podoleyeva T.G., Vasilenko M.V. etc. Currently, the department includes 1 doctor of technical sciences, 4 candidates of technical sciences, 4 PhD doctors, 1 master’s assistant; 4 engineers work at the department to ensure sustainable development of the educational process.
