Boris Vladimirovich Didkovsky (Russian: Борис Владимирович Дидковский) (1 May 1883 – 13 August 1937) was a Bolshevik revolutionary, Soviet geologist, teacher and rector of the Ural State University.

In 1913–1917, Didkovsky, returning to Russia, was engaged in geological research of the Northern Urals, having received the position of chief geologist of the Nikolae-Pavdinsky mountain district.

Then in March 1917 he joined the RSDLP (b), was the chairman of the food administration in Verkhoturye, led the armed detachments, participated in the Petrograd Congress of Deputies, where he prepared a government decree on the nationalization of the Ural industry.

After the Bolshevik Revolution took place, Didkovsky was elected to the Ural Regional Soviet in Yekaterinburg and occupied an influential position here as the Deputy Chairman under Alexander Beloborodov.

Historians Greg King and Penny Wilson, however, cite Didkovsky's presence at the meeting of the soviet on 29 June 1918 when it was unanimously decided the family would be killed, as Yekaterinburg was about to fall to the White Front.
