Herzen State Pedagogical University of Russia (Herzen University) is one of the country's oldest teacher-training institutions. It was founded on 2(14) May 1797 by Emperor Paul I as St. Petersburg Educational House, and later lay the foundations for other pedagogical institutions in the XIX – early XX centuries. These were formed into a single pedagogical institute by Decree of the People's Commissar for Education on 1 September 1918. On 15 January 1920, the Presidium of the All-Union Executive Committee decreed that the institute be named after Alexander Herzen. The Ministry of Education, in issuing order No. 25 of 24 January 1991, gave Leningrad State Pedagogical Institute university status, and it has been called the Herzen State Pedagogical University of Russia since then. The University's graduates make a considerable contribution to the country's social and cultural life. Some of the writers, poets, composers, actors, athletes, and political figures are well-known outside of Russia, as well, including N. Zabolotsky, A. Kushner, V. Sangi, A. Chepurov, L. Reznikov, A. Morozov, L. Egorova. By decree of the President of the Russian Federation No. 30 of 15 January 1998, Herzen University was included in the State Corpus of Heritage Sites in Russia. This decree is further proof that today the University is among the leaders in Russian education, a major cultural and educational center, unique multidiscipline research and educational complex which maintains and develops the best academic and educational traditions in Russia and worldwide. Today the University comprises five institutes, 21 faculties, three affiliations in the towns of Volkhov, Vyborg, and Makhachkala, over 130 departments, three research centers, 27 educational and cultural centers including the Linguistic Center, the DAAD Resource Center, and the St. Petersburg School of Conference Interpreting and Translation. All departments work in close cooperation with the University's over 25 research centers and laboratories, including the Physics Research Institute, the Continuing Education Research Institute, and the General Education Research Institute. Alongside the training of highly qualified teachers for universities and secondary schools, Herzen University offers a broad range of non-teaching specializations, allowing it to fit into the category of traditional universities. The University admits students to 57 educational programs integrated into ten groups (32 Bachelor's programs, 2 Specialist programs, and 23 Master's programs). The University offers Arts & Humanities, Engineering & Technology, Life Sciences, Natural Sciences, and Social Sciences programs. The latest achievements in education management and economics, juvenile justice, etc., form the foundation of the training programs for psychologists, economists, lawyers, managers, IT specialists, and quality control managers. Still, the teacher-training programs remain the priority for Herzen University. Throughout its history, the University has been the largest innovative teacher-training center in Russia, turning out highly professional educators. The University is home to 40 scientific schools. It holds the leading positions in the number of students involved in postgraduate programs among other institutions administered by the Russian Ministry of Education and Science. Herzen University serves as a venue for remarkable educational events: every year, the University holds more than 300 scientific and methodological conferences, over 60 of which have an international status. At present, an original system of scientific research activities has been generated at the University. It is dynamic in its development and adaptable to active modifications in society's moral, social, and economic spheres. Strategically crucial in this context was creating a spectrum of the leading scientific disciplines representing the University's scientific-pedagogical potential. View full university
