On November 26, 2025, a curatorial hour dedicated to the 140th anniversary of the outstanding Kazakh public figure Mirzhakyp Dulatov was held in group TMO-25-1.2.k.

The event was organized by the Advisor Coordinator Shaymukhanova S.D. and the group curator, Mazhiyeva E.M., master of technical sciences, lecturer at the Department of TiPP.

During the event, students prepared thematic presentations and speeches highlighting the main stages of the writer’s life and work, as well as his socio-political activities and contribution to the development of national culture and education.

Mirzhakyp Dulatov (1885–1935) was a poet, writer, publicist, public figure, and educator. In the history of Kazakhstan, his name ranks alongside Alikhan Bukeikhanov and Akhmet Baitursynov — representatives of the national intelligentsia who played a key role in the revival of Kazakh national identity in the early 20th century. He was an active participant in public and political life and a member of the Alash Orda government, making a significant contribution to the development of education, literature, and the idea of independence.

Special attention was given to his famous book “Oyan, Qazaq!”, published in 1911 and later confiscated by the Main Directorate for Press Affairs, as the author himself later recalled in his memoirs. This work became a powerful ideological and spiritual call for national awakening and had a great influence on the formation of public consciousness among the Kazakh people in the early 20th century.

At the end of the curatorial hour, students recited poems by Mirzhakyp Dulatov from the collection “Oyan, Qazaq!”, emphasizing the continuing relevance of his ideas on national awareness, freedom, enlightenment, and civic responsibility.
