• Increasing the intellectual potential of the department, developing the department's research base, and enhancing the professionalism of the teaching staff to meet modern requirements for training qualified and competitive personnel;
• Implementing innovative methods of organizing the educational process and applying progressive educational technologies;
• Forming links with employers.

The department traces its history back to 1996, when the Department of "Information Technologies and Mathematical Modeling" was established by a decision of the Scientific Council of the Mining and Metallurgical Institute. The founder and first head of the department from 1996 to 2021 was Amanbek Zhaynakov, Doctor of Physical and Mathematical Sciences, Professor, and Academician of the National Academy of Sciences of the Kyrgyz Republic.

In 2015, the department was named after Academician Amanbek Zhaynakov for his significant contribution to the development of science and education.

In 2011, the Department of "Information Systems and Technologies in Telecommunications" was established and began its educational activities within the Institute of Electronics and Telecommunications of KSTU named after I. Razzakov.

Since 2022, as a result of the merger of departments from various structural divisions, a single department has been functioning—the "Department of Information Systems and Technologies named after Academician A. Zhaynakov," which provides training for specialists in modern IT fields.

From 2021 to the present, the department has been headed by Nurgul Asimkanovna Amankulova, Candidate of Physical and Mathematical Sciences and Associate Professor.

Кафедра ведёт свою историю с 1996 года, когда решением Учёного совета Горно-металлургического института была создана кафедра «Информационные технологии и математическое моделирование». Основателем и первым заведующим кафедрой в 1996–2021 гг. был Аманбек Жайнаков, доктор физико-математических наук, профессор, академик НАН Кыргызской Республики.

В 2015 году кафедре было присвоено имя академика Аманбека Жайнакова за значительный вклад в развитие науки и образования.

В 2011 году в составе Института электроники и телекоммуникаций КГТУ им. И. Раззакова была создана и осуществляла образовательную деятельность кафедра «Информационные системы и технологии в телекоммуникациях».

С 2022 года в результате объединения кафедр различных структурных подразделений функционирует единая кафедра — «Информационные системы и технологии имени академика А. Жайнакова», осуществляющая подготовку специалистов по современным IT-направлениям.

С 2021 года по настоящее время кафедрой заведует кандидат физико-математических наук, доцент Аманкулова Нургул Асимкановна.
