Igibaev Sovetkhan Kabdualievich (1941-2021) - Doctor of Historical Sciences, Professor, corresponding member of the Academy of Higher Education of Kazakhstan.

Igibaev Sovetkhan Kabdualievich was born on November 11, 1941 in the village of KzylTas, Kurchum district, East Kazakhstan region. His childhood was spent in a large and friendly family. Kabduali's father worked on a collective farm, Kainzhamal's mother is a housewife. After graduating from Terekty-Bulak secondary School in 1959, Sovetkhan Kabdualievich Igibaev entered the 1st year of the historical and philological faculty of the Ust-Kamenogorsk Pedagogical Institute. While still a student, he began to do research work. He was distinguished by inquisitiveness, purposefulness, interest in the history of the region, perseverance in comprehending the basics of historical science. After graduating from UCPI in 1963, S.K. Igibayev worked for several months as a history teacher at the Kalzhir secondary school of the Markakol district of the East Kazakhstan region and then was drafted into the Armed Forces. After completing his military service, he worked as a history teacher in the Samara district of the East Kazakhstan region, an instructor of the Samara district Executive Committee. In 1970, S.K. Igibaev was invited to teach at the Ust-Kamenogorsk Pedagogical Institute. From the first days of work at the university, Sovetkhan Kabdualievich joined the research work. Having chosen the problem of the private gold industry of pre–revolutionary Kazakhstan as a scientific study, he successfully passed the candidate's exams in philosophy, a foreign language - English, which he had to comprehend almost independently, the history of the USSR and in 1974 successfully defended his PhD thesis on: "Private gold industry of pre–revolutionary Kazakhstan 1833-1917" in the specialized council of the Institute of History, Ethnography and Archeology of the Academy of Sciences of the Kazakh SSR. His research and teaching activities were distinguished by a high scientific level and versatility. Sovetkhan Kabdualievich was interested in the problems of the ancient history of Kazakhstan – the formation of human society on the modern territory of Kazakhstan, the periodization of the history of Kazakhstan, socio –economic relations of Kazakhstan at the turn of the 19th – 20th centuries and much more. The result of his painstaking, tireless creative work was the defense of his doctoral dissertation in 1991 in Almaty on the topic: "Industrial workers of pre–revolutionary Kazakhstan: numerical composition, position (1861-1917)." S.K. Igibaev is the author of more than 87 scientific papers. His articles on the composition, number, and level of employment of the population outlined new approaches to the study of historical and demographic problems. Of particular interest in the scientific community was his work "Nomadic peoples of the Northern Black Sea region in the stories of Ancient Russia (10th-12th centuries)", published in Almaty, by the publishing house "Gylym" in 1994. A lot of work was done by S.K. Igibayev on writing a "Standard program on the history of Kazakhstan: for students of historical specialties". This program was the first in the Republic and recommended for publication by the Department of Higher Education and Science of the Republic of Kazakhstan in 1995, then supplemented and republished in Kazakh and Russian in 2000. An important feature of this program is that it covered the "white spots of the history of Kazakhstan". The problems of socio-economic history of Kazakhstan, culture and education, population issues were actively developed under the leadership of Sovetkhan Kabdualievich by his masters, graduate students, applicants. In 1996, participating in a research competition, Sovetkhan Kabdualievich won a 3-month internship at Stanford University in the USA. Work in the archives of the United States, meetings, exchanges of views with historians from overseas allowed us to replenish scientific baggage. The unique materials brought from the archives of Stanford University are now used by its masters and graduate students. A deep researcher, scrupulous and thoughtful publisher of sources, Professor S. K. Igibayev conducted research on topical issues of historiography and source studies of the history of Kazakhstan, being the head of the Department of History of Kazakhstan.

For conscientious work, Sovetkhan Kabdualievich was awarded the Order of "Friendship of Peoples" (1981), the medal "10 Years of Independence of the Republic of Kazakhstan" (2001), the badge "For Merits in the development of Science of the Republic of Kazakhstan" (2003), the medal "Eren enbegi Ushin" (2005), "Honorary Worker of Education" (2009), winner of the Abai Gold Medal (2018).
