History of department

It is difficult to overestimate the role of history in human existence, especially if we are attentive enough to the essence of the phenomenon of history and to human nature. History is, in essence, the basis of the identity of the subject: the source of knowledge about its origin and the basis for determining the content of existence or vocation. Therefore, history is always given exceptional importance in the existence of any community. Accordingly, almost every educational institution, as long as it cares about the education of not only a specialist but also a citizen, will certainly provide coverage of history: the state, the world, the school itself. Within the walls of the University, this mission at different times was entrusted to the NPP of the Department of History, which, of course, underwent reorganization, along with changes in public and state life in general.
Chronicle of the Department of History
Departments, whose main task was to cover history in accordance with the existing ideological direction, were formed in 1935 p. in each of the three institutes, namely agricultural, veterinary and forestry, and were called the Department of Fundamentals of Marxism-Leninism. More than half of them were historians.
