On September 21^st 2020, at the Faculty of Mechanics and Mathematics, there was a coordination meeting with the delegation of Belarusian universities on the "APPLE" project - an Applied Curriculum for Space Exploration and Intelligent Robotic Systems.

On behalf of Kazakhstan, the project coordinator is the head of the Department of Mechanics of Kaz National al-Farabi University Rakisheva Z.B. The meeting was attended by the dean of the Faculty of Mechanics and Mathematics Zhakebaev D.B., deputy. Dean for Research and International Cooperation Zh.M. Bektemesov, members of the project team.

Congratulation of Kozhakhmetov Asylbek Bazarbaevich,

President of Almaty Management University (formerly International Academy of Business), Doctor of Business Administration, graduate of the Department of Continuum Mechanics, Faculty of Mechanics and Applied Mathematics, Kazakh State University in 1980!

The project of young scientists of the Kazakh National Al-Farabi University won the competition for grant funding for young scientists on scientific and (or) scientific and technical projects announced by the Ministry of Education and Science of the Republic of Kazakhstan.

On April 17th, 2020, the ІV Scientific Seminar “Education and Science for Sustainable Development” dedicated to the International Day of Human Space Flight on April 12 with the support of the UN Information Bureau was held online. The seminar was organized by the Department of Mechanics and the Department of Press and Electronic Media of KazNU. al-Farabi.

In the framework of the international scientific conference of students and young scientists “Farabi World”, an annual competition of innovative projects of student business incubators was held at the Kazakh National University.

Young scientists from the Department of Mechanics of the Mechanics and Mathematics Faculty also took an active part in this competition and presented three projects.

During the emergency introduced in connection with the world coronavirus pandemic, al-Farabi KazNU switched from 16.03.2020 to distance learning for students. Like the entire University, the Department of mechanics of the faculty of mechanics and mathematics conducts all classes in full extent remotely and online. At this time, the main thing for every teacher is to organize uninterrupted and high-quality education for students. Senior lecturer at the Department of mechanics M.O. Nogaibayeva prepared guidelines for conducting an online workshop, which provides information about the structure of the workshop from organization to verification.

In the period of April 6-8, at the Faculty of Mechanics and Mathematics, the international scientific conference of students and young scientists "Farabi Alemi" was held online.

Within the framework of the conference, under the leadership of the Department of Mechanics, 3 breakout sessions were held: “Continuum Mechanics”, “Theoretical and Applied Mechanics”, “Space Engineering and Technologies”.

Recently, the assistant professor of our department T. Kunakbaev shared with one story related to the photo ghosts of famous pilots.

Kunakbaev Tulegen Ospanovich was born in 1950 in the Novosibirsk region, in the Kulyndinsk (Kulyn) steppe.

 In 1964, he, as an excellent pupil, the pioneer-Komsomol leader of the school and the athlete, was given the only ticket to the whole region to the All-Russian pioneer camp «Орленок» on the Black Sea coast of the Caucasus, near the seaport of Tuapse. There a meeting of schoolchildren with cosmonauts Yuri Gagarin, Andriyan Nikolaev, Vladimir Komarov and Konstantin Feoktistov, who were resting at that time in the city of Sochi, took place.

Happy Cosmonautic Day!
