Volgograd State Social Pedagogical University

Volgograd State Social Pedagogical University is one of the major and leading pedagogical institutions of higher learning in the Russian Federation. It was founded on the 22nd of May in 1931 as Stalingrad Industrial Pedagogical Institute. On the 1st of October 1931 the first lectures began in four departments of the institute.

In 1932 the institute got the name of Stalingrad State Pedagogical Institute.

The institute was destroyed during the Battle of Stalingrad in 1942. But the reconstruction of it began immediately after the victory over the fascists in Stalingrad in 1943.

After the Great Patriotic War Stalingrad State Pedagogical Institute was situated in the building of Akademicheskaya Street (now it is Building No. 2). The Main Building of the institute was constructed in 1959. Building No. 1 was built next to it in 1998.

On January 19, 1949 the Institute was named after the famous writer Alexander Serafimovitch.

Since 2011 our university has the name of Volgograd State Social Pedagogical University (VSSPU).

During the last ten years the university is among ten best pedagogical and linguistic universities in Russia due to the high standards of knowledge and professionalism of the graduates.
