          Yet in 1963 he initiated the KazSU was opened specialization "theory of machines and mechanisms" (TMP), and two years later the republic for the first time received the graduates in this specialty.
          On the basis of the Kazakh State University in 1971, he created the Kazakh branch of the All-Union scientific seminar on the theory of mechanisms and machines and laboratories that performed the first days of orders Siberian plants and Kostanai worsted woolen mill.
          In 1973 he created the Department of Applied Mechanics. Together with the Moscow professor N.I. Levitsky in 1974, is developing a new program of the course "Theory of mechanisms and machines", in which all the universities of the USSR worked.
Since 1975, student seminars on narrow areas with the participation of graduate students have been introduced at the department. The national tour of our students took first or second place.

          April 23, 1980 on the basis of the decision of the Presidium of the Academy of Sciences of the Kazakh SSR in the structure of the Institute of Mathematics and Mechanics of the laboratory of theory of mechanisms and machine control, scientific advice was assigned to Umirbek Arislanovich.

In mathematical modeling laboratory. In the center - U.A.Dzholdasbekov

          He is the author of the first textbook on the mechanisms and machines in the Kazakh language (1972.1979), Russian-Kazakh Polytechnic explanatory dictionary (1974) and the Kazakh-Russian Dictionary of Mechanical Engineering (1975).
          For many years, continuously fully gave himself - all his tireless energy, all the heat of his heart guide one of the largest in Kazakhstan and Central Asia, training and research centers, some became KazSU, brought him to the forefront of science and higher education.
