The first head of the department was the former rector of Aktobe Pedagogical Institute, Candidate of Philological Sciences, Associate Professor Shchetinin Pavel Stepanovich. Over the years, the department was headed by Krinova, Tegai L. E., Novoselova A. N., Zhigareva E. A., Karashulakova M. Zh.

    The year 1983 marked the creation of the department for the Russian language in national schools. The first head of this department was Associate Professor Shcherbakova V. A., followed by Shapovalova A. G. From 1991, after the merger with the Russian language department, the head of the department became Candidate of Philological Sciences Aimagambetova A. Sh. The department was subsequently led by Ungarbaeva G. I., Sviridova I. I., Tasybaeva G. M., Baishukurova Zh. Zh., Kuzdybaeva A. A., Zhuminova A. B., Idrisova E. T.
