Raising children requires special attention not only from parents, but also from teachers. is a “training ground” for everyone who wants to devote themselves to this difficult but very interesting profession. Every year, about a thousand young professionals graduate from this higher education institution and go to work in schools, colleges and universities.

Founded in 1931, the pedagogical institution repeatedly took part in various experiments of the Ministry of Education of the USSR and the Russian Federation aimed at improving the quality of education. As of September 2017, the university has two institutes and a branch; the institution itself has more than ten faculties, where masters of pedagogy educate the younger generation.

VGSPU: history of creation and formation

The 1930s were remembered for fundamental changes that affected absolutely all residents of the Soviet Union. It was then that a program was launched aimed at providing residents of the country with primary education, which required the presence of a huge number of specialists in the relevant field. Thanks to her, in 1931 the Volgograd Social Pedagogical University appeared, which at that time was called the Stalingrad Industrial Pedagogical Institute.

Initially, it was planned that this educational institution would train engineer-teachers, who would then go to work in technical colleges, schools and colleges and carry out polytechnic training there. However, already in 1932, humanities faculties appeared in it, and five years later, a Teachers' Institute appeared at the establishment, where the duration of training was only two years, and its graduates could only work in grades 5-7. By 1941, the Stalingrad Pedagogical Institute was one of the largest educational institutions in the south of the USSR, about 500 teachers graduated from it annually.

VSPU: The Great Patriotic War and its consequences

The war, which went down in the history of mankind as the most terrible and destructive, claimed the lives of many teachers and students of the institute, which is now called the Volgograd Social Pedagogical University. Between September 1942 and November 1943, the institute suspended its work due to a shortage of teaching staff and students. As a result of the war, Stalingrad was almost completely destroyed, so it was possible to restore all previously used buildings only by 1949. Around the same time, the university stopped experiencing a shortage of teaching staff.

In 1953, the Teachers' Institute ceased its work, its facilities were transferred to an industrial and pedagogical institution. Particular emphasis in the work of the institute was placed on teaching foreign languages, as well as on equipping existing faculties with all the necessary facilities. Around the same time, additional enrollments were opened for graduate studies in the faculties of pedagogy and history. In 1961, the university was renamed Volgograd State Pedagogical Institute.

VSPU: current state of the university

It successfully coped with the crisis years of the 1990s, practically without losing all of its valuable teaching staff. In 2011, the university received its modern name - Volgograd. A year later, the Ministry of Education and Science recognized the university as ineffective and recommended its closure, but in 2013 the situation changed, and the university was allowed to continue operating.

In 2015, they tried to merge the university with Volgograd State University, but this did not happen. Currently, the socio-pedagogical university includes several lyceums, schools and kindergartens. Since 1992, university specialists have been developing projects related to lifelong education. Also, the university has more than 40 laboratories and research centers; students master bachelor's degrees and have the right to take part in candidate and master's programs, and then enroll in doctoral studies.

faculties and institutes

As of 2017, the university has 11 faculties, the most popular are those related to management and technological and economic education, as well as physics, computer science, mathematics and primary education. The university also has faculties of history, philology, socio-pedagogical and natural sciences. The Faculty of Social and Psychological-Pedagogical Education deserves special attention; specialists who most often occupy the positions of social educators in schools graduate from there every year.

The university also has faculties of professional retraining and additional education, where both current students and graduates can study. Not long ago, a faculty was opened where foreign students study - this is a key difference between the university and many others, where such students have to either study science with Russian-speaking students or study individually. The institutes of art education and foreign languages ​​stand apart, which function almost autonomously.
