Research
Fundamental and applied laboratory research is carried out in the Department of Environmental Engineering to study the problems of environmental preservation and the rational use of natural resources. Research methods include ecological engineering, eco-monitoring, radioecology, and other basic processes. Students complete theses on themes such as eco-safe technology, conserving organic and inorganic raw materials, recycling, separation and purification of substances, and assessment of physical and human impacts on the environment. Of course, the programs also include testing air, soil, water quality, research on and calculation of the effects of harmful substances on the environment, ecological chemistry, biotechnology and ecological microbiology, industrial and agricultural ecology, radioecology, health and safety, ecological economics and management, planning and designing ecological and economic research, and flowsheet development. The results of research are directly used in teaching at the Department of Environmental Engineering.

International Cooperation and Scientific Programs
Our faculty members consistently work with leading researchers from around the world, meeting to exchange ideas and present their work. Professor D. Z. K. Maimekov has presented at conferences in Turkey, Russia, China, Poland, and Kazakhstan. Our faculty members have also traveled with programs such as Fulbright (Professor K. A. Kojobaev, California, 2009-2010), the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (Senior Lecturer A. Mullabaev, Copenhagen, 2009), and DAAD (K. A. Kemelov, Berlin Technical University).
