Russian universities. Kostroma State University

For more than sixty years, the leading university of the region, KSU, has been supplying highly qualified personnel. Kostroma is the only city in Russia that trains specialists for the jewelry industry. The university is focused on the latest educational technologies, has a significant scientific potential, and has a good material base. Graduates of KSU (Kostroma) are in high demand in the country.

A word about the university

Today we can say with confidence that Kostroma knows and loves KSU well, because this university has been decorating the city since 1949, and the university and the region experience all the joys and anxieties together. It is from here that the bulk of applicants come to the walls of the university, it is the enterprises of the region that leave the largest and best part of the graduates.

In Kostroma, KSU is a highly respected university that can set the direction for the entire future path of the young generation. This is the path to success, because education here is of exceptional quality and is really in demand. Here, each student has the opportunity to develop all his brightest creative abilities in order to climb the career ladder as successfully as possible in the future. That is why almost always and for all specialties there is a rather high competition for admission to Kostroma State University.

Reasoned Choice

Today's applicants have a lot of options for choosing a higher education institution. However, Kostroma State University is one of the safest. And this can be confirmed by thousands and thousands of graduates who have become successful professionals, entrepreneurs, civil servants, scientists, engineers, teachers.

KSU named after Nekrasov (Kostroma) - and multidisciplinary. It has a long history and a powerful scientific potential, thanks to which there are huge opportunities for self-realization. This university is not only innovative, but also creative, with talented teachers who give all their knowledge to students, with a ready platform for the most dizzying experiments.

Story

The actual date of the creation of the university is 1918, when the new state university was called the Workers' and Peasants' University and was opened in memory of the October Socialist Revolution. Kostroma University was legalized in January 1919 by a decree of the Council of People's Commissars, which was personally signed by V. I. Lenin. He began classes in November 1918 at this educational institution, a world-famous scientist - E. M. Chepurkovsky.

And the rest of the teaching staff in Kostroma was truly stellar. Professor F. A. Menkov read political economy, F. A. Petrovsky, B. A. Romanov, A. F. Izyumov, A. I. Nekrasov, V. F. Shishmarev and many other remarkable scientists read humanitarian subjects. It was here that one of the most famous Pushkinists S. M. Bondi and academician N. M. Druzhinin began their teaching activities. And that is not all! Students of KSU in Kostroma listened to brilliant lectures by Anatoly Vasilyevich Lunacharsky, People's Commissar of Education, and Fyodor Kuzmich Sologub, a wonderful poet, an expert on new literature and the new theater.

Start

From the very beginning, the university had only three faculties - forestry, humanitarian and natural, a little later medical and pedagogical were opened. It was very difficult to teach students in those days, since everyone had the same access to education, and workers and peasants did not go through school programs. However, the enthusiasm was great. An educational association was opened with a higher folk school, where applicants received fairly deep training.

In 1919, the working faculty was opened, and he took over the preparation of students for academic education. By 1921, more than three thousand workers and peasants were studying at the Kostroma State University. Then, many new universities in the country went through a process of reorganization, including KSU. On its basis, two universities were created - agricultural and pedagogical. And it was not the last transformation.

Institute

Since 1939, this university existed and developed as a pedagogical institute, in 1946 it received the name of N. A. Nekrasov, since the anniversary of the Russian poet was widely celebrated in the country. In 1950, 1800 students studied at the correspondence and full-time departments, there were fifteen departments, where almost ninety teachers worked. Since 1960, the university has developed especially successfully. An art school was merged into KSPI in the form of an art and graphic faculty, then a department of foreign languages ​​was opened, which by 1968 became a separate faculty.

By that time, Kostroma had increased the number of KGU corps. Back in 1964, building "A" appeared - a large educational building, which is located on 1 May Street. Construction was also carried out huge, in which almost the entire Kostroma participated. The KSU dormitory (850 places!) on Shchemilovka, the sports complex on Pyatnitskaya, new educational buildings - all this was built before the beginning of the 80s. Since the needs of the national economy changed over time, new specialties were needed. KSU in Kostroma has always responded to such demand. New faculties were formed: musical and pedagogical, labor and general technical disciplines, physical culture, methods and pedagogy of primary education.

University

The economic and social transformations in the nineties of the twentieth century were very large-scale. They also contributed to the development of KSU in Kostroma. Specialties increased to nineteen, faculties became thirteen. Most of the pedagogical traditions and heritage accumulated over many decades have been preserved. There were already twice as many students studying here, and the pedagogical education of KSU was famous not only in its own region. The teaching staff has changed significantly in quantitative and qualitative terms: among the four hundred teachers there are more than one hundred and seventy candidates and doctors of sciences, associate professors and professors.

Back in the eighties, seventeen people were preparing for graduate school. In the nineties there were more than seventy. And the graduate school was already working in fourteen specialties. Until 1994, four doctoral and thirty-five master's theses were defended. The certification of the university passed, and the institute became a pedagogical university - KSPU named after Nekrasov. Scientific and business relations were established with universities in Germany, Great Britain, Denmark, France, Poland and some other countries. And in 1999, the logical result of all this development was the order of the Ministry of Education and Science of the Russian Federation on the status of a classical university with the name "KSU named after Nekrasov" (Kostroma).

Directions

Today, a team of scientists from KSU conducts innovative, exploratory, fundamental, applied, scientific and methodological research in all sciences present at the university. The development of scientific schools and university directions in education, Russian history, economic theory, intercultural communication, archeology, jurisprudence, literary criticism, social psychology, dialectology and phraseology, social work and social education, ecology, chemistry and many others is becoming more and more noticeable.

Publication activity is increasing, many scientific developments are being carried out, and therefore every year the rating of KSU among other Russian universities is getting higher. Monographs, collections of scientific papers, textbooks and teaching aids, and many other types of methodological literature are well developed and published.

Publishing

The University has its own publications - "Bulletin of KSU" and "Economics of Education", which are included in the List of periodic scientific and technical publications of the Russian Federation, where the results of dissertations are published. Applicants for the degree of candidate and doctor of science do not have to look for journals for publication for a long time. The entire series of the KSU Bulletin (which is psychology, pedagogy, juvenology, social work, sociokinetics) is included in the scientific citation index of the Russian Federation.

Now the graduate school prepares candidates of sciences in twelve branches of science and in thirty-nine specialties; by 2011, nine specialties in doctoral studies have already been opened. The magistracy of KSU (Kostroma) starts accepting documents on the twentieth of June and continues it until mid-August. Entrance examinations are conducted according to a convenient schedule, which can be found on the website of the university.

Submission of documents to the magistracy

The admission committee of KSU (Kostroma) is located at the address: Dzerzhinsky Street, 17, room 115. Together with the application, the applicant must present documents that will confirm his identity and citizenship. In addition, the application must be accompanied by:

In 2017, 664 people (bachelor's and specialist's) became students of KSU on a budgetary basis, 290 people will study at the correspondence department, 209 people will study at the master's program. Applicants quite often use the opportunity to apply simultaneously for three areas of training and participate in three competitions, thus increasing the chances of successful admission to this university.

Training courses

For applicants at KSU, there are preparatory courses with an intensive program that help not only pass the exam well, but also internal entrance tests. Preparation is carried out in the following subjects: chemistry, physics, Russian language, drawing, painting, social studies, mathematics, literature, history, computer science and ICT, foreign languages, biology.

For each discipline, it is supposed to issue at least one hundred academic hours. Classes begin now, in November, and last until the end of April. This is one day a week from 16.00 to 19.00, that is, four lessons of 45 minutes each. Applications are accepted directly at KSU (Kostroma). Address: Dzerzhinsky street, house 17, room 114. The cost of one item is 6 thousand rubles. Already at the end of October, free courses in informatics and ICT began to work.

Olympics

Today, every applicant knows that it is impossible to enter a good university (and KSU is a very good one) without having certain personal achievements that only a special Olympiad for high school students can give. Kostroma State University is hosting just such an event, and it's called "Support of the Kostroma Territory".

The tasks this year were in thirteen areas, and all of them were prepared by the best teachers of the university. These are the humanities, mathematics, chemistry and physics. Coping with such tasks, high school students can demonstrate not only good theoretical knowledge, but also show creative abilities. As a result, every single participant receives three additional points to the exam. Prize-winners - five points each, and the winners of each direction - ten points at once to the results of the exam.

Unique laboratory

Recently, a laboratory was opened at KSU, where jewelers are trained. About seventeen million rubles were spent on state-of-the-art equipment by the federal budget. For example, there is a 3D printer that can be used to create a three-dimensional model of any product, and there is no such equipment even at Kostroma enterprises (and Kostroma has been famous for its jewelers since ancient times). It should be noted here that this specialty is in high demand.

The Kostroma region today processes up to fifty percent of all Russian gold and up to seventy percent of all Russian silver. It is rightfully considered the jewelry capital of the country: one and a half thousand jewelry enterprises and organizations operate in the region. Every tenth product is exported. Consumers are not only the CIS countries, but also Belgium. Switzerland, UAE, India, Hong Kong and many other countries. Up to eighty percent of export jewelry is made here, and therefore the demand for such specialists is huge.

Scientific library and more

For many decades, the scientific library of KSU has been the main methodological center that coordinates the activities of all libraries located in professional educational institutions of the region. Seminars for librarians are held here, sections are constantly functioning that strengthen ties between the universities of the city and relate to library work.

In the square near the main building of KSU in 2009, a monument was erected to the great son of the Kostroma land - writer, publicist, philosopher, sociologist Alexander Alexandrovich Zinoviev, although he graduated from MIFLI (MSU) rather than KSU. Nevertheless, he was very closely connected with the university of his native land. Posthumously received the title of honorary citizen of the Kostroma region. Even after his cremation, he bequeathed to dispel the ashes "over his native Chukhloma". And in KSU there are a lot of followers of the famous logician and sociologist.

I am a graduate of the Kostroma State University. N.A. Nekrasova. I can be called a hereditary student of this educational institution, since my mother once graduated from it, however, we studied at different faculties: she was in philology, I was in music and pedagogy.

In the year when I entered, there was a competition for the music and pedagogical faculty, albeit a small one - two people per place. True, since then the situation has changed: in the universities of Ivanovo and Yaroslavl open ...

About the university

"Kostroma State Workers' and Peasants' University in memory of the October Revolution of 1917" - under this name, on the initiative of local authorities, the first university in our city appeared. The Decree of the Council of People's Commissars of January 21, 1919 legalized the establishment of the State University and decided to consider November 7, 1918 as the opening date. These important events began the difficult history of university education in Kostroma.

The building of the Assembly of the Nobility on the former Pavlovskaya Street (now Mira Avenue) temporarily became the main building of the university. Classes began on November 17, 1918 with a lecture by E. M. Chepurkovsky, Privatdozent, later a world-famous anthropologist, "Types of the prehistoric and modern population of Great Russia", read in the White Hall.

Professor N. G. Gorodensky, who taught classical philosophy and already had experience in organizing a university in Tiflis, where he was the first rector, became the first rector of the university created in Kostroma, and Professor M. I. Kovalevsky, elected vice-rector, was educated abroad, mainly in the famous Göttingen university. At the end of 1919, when N. G. Gorodensky resigned as rector for health reasons, Professor F. A. Menkov, head of the department of political economy and statistics, became the head of the university.

Despite the socio-economic difficulties, the new university absorbed the best traditions of Russian higher education. Kostromichi specially went to get acquainted with the organization of education at Moscow State University, some of whose professors and pupils became teachers of the new university, and the dean of the faculty of the humanities, Professor V.F. Shishmarev, who had previously taught in St. Petersburg, could not help but bring the traditions of Petrograd university education.

The university managed to gather an excellent staff of teachers. There were 10 professors working at the natural faculty alone. Such well-known scientists as F. A. Petrovsky (classical philosophy), B. A. Romanov and A. F. Izyumov (history), A. I. Nekrasov (history and theory of arts), V. F. Shishmarev (history of Western European literature and Romance philology), S. K. Shambinago (literary criticism), A. L. Sacchetti and Yu. P. Novitsky (law). The famous Pushkinist S. M. Bondi (who made his first scientific discoveries while still a student) and the future academician historian N. M. Druzhinin took their first steps in teaching here. Students of Kostroma University could hear brilliant speeches by the then People's Commissar of Education A. V. Lunacharsky, lectures by the remarkable writer of the Silver Age F. Sologub about new literature and the new theater.

Along with the main - natural and humanitarian faculties - the VI Provincial Congress of Soviets, taking into account the social needs of the region, proposed to open special faculties, primarily forestry and pedagogy. A year later, a medical department was opened. The university quickly turned into a major educational center.

Since workers and peasants could enter the university without exams, 2,494 students were enrolled in the humanities, natural sciences and forestry faculties. However, semi-literate students had a vague idea of ​​​​academic education. When they heard lectures on psychology, the history of philosophy and other disciplines, their interest in studying at the university could not help but decrease: the students clearly lacked basic training. In this regard, an educational association was opened at the university, which included a higher public school and a provincial society of public universities. Since 1919, the function of preparing students for study at the academic department was taken over by the working faculty that appeared at the university.

The consequences of the Civil War, the introduction of the New Economic Policy, and the reduction in funding for education led to the fact that already in 1921 the young university was closed. However, the educational and scientific potential of the university was in demand. The natural faculty was transformed into the Practical Agricultural Institute, and the pedagogical faculty was merged with the Institute of Public Education, as a result of which an independent pedagogical institute was created, which lasted about two years.

The problem of lack of funds led to further reorganization: in 1923, the Institute merged with the Pedagogical College, which existed on the basis of the teacher's seminary, which was closed in 1918. university), after the closure of the university increased tenfold - more than 600 people.

In November 1924, the Kostroma Pedagogical and Vasilyevsky Agricultural Technical Schools merged, as a result of which the M. Gorky Agricultural Pedagogical College was formed, which trained teachers and agronomists at two departments. In 1927, the third department was opened - political and educational, which produced propaganda workers for the village.

In connection with the preparations for the transition to compulsory primary education, in 1928 the technical school again became a pedagogical school and included two departments - school (daytime) and preschool (evening). Pedagogical courses are also regularly organized at the technical school in order to relieve tension in the provision of teaching staff.

In 1937, the Pedagogical College was transformed into a Pedagogical College. Thanks to the activities of its director T. E. Naumova, head teacher E. A. Voskresenskaya, Russian language methodologist V. I. Zhdanova, talented painter B. N. Tsarnakh, historian L. A. Pombrak and other teachers, it became possible to preserve in those years traditions of pedagogical education in Kostroma.

In connection with the course taken by the country for a compulsory seven-year education, the scope of the school for the pedagogical educational institution in Kostroma turned out to be narrow. In 1939, by the decision of the People's Commissariat of Education, the school was transformed into a teacher's institute, which at various times until 1949 was headed by P. L. Chernova, G. I. Barashkova, M. P. Kroshkina, Ya. D. Gilenko, N. A. Vilinskaya , P. Ya. Aleshkin, A. D. Volkov. Difficult 1940s became a period of relative stability in the development of the university. Initially, two departments were opened at the institute: Russian Language and Literature and Physics and Mathematics. From 1940 to 1946 there was a historical department, united during the war with the verbal, and then again divided into two independent educational units. At the end of the war, a natural-geographic department also arose.

After the Great Patriotic War, the teaching staff of the university began to change qualitatively. A. V. Mirtov became the first doctor of philological sciences and professor at the Institute. Philologists M. N. Borzhek, N. A. Vilinskaya, N. A. Shchavelkina, historians K. A. Buldakov and I. E. Pakhomov, and psychologist F. T. Kuimov taught at a high scientific and methodological level. The energetic work of the director of the institute A. D. Volkov, whose life was suddenly cut short in March 1949, and therefore he did not live to realize his dream - raising the status of the university , transforming it into a pedagogical institute.

In 1946, the university was named after the Russian poet Nikolai Alekseevich Nekrasov, whose 125th birthday was then widely celebrated in the country. In the short period of its existence (the last issue was made in 1952), the teacher's institute trained about 1,200 teachers.

Since 1949, for more than 45 years, the university will become the Kostroma State Pedagogical Institute named after N. A. Nekrasov, although until 1953 the teacher and pedagogical institutes functioned in parallel and graduates of the teacher's university often continued their studies in the third year of the pedagogical one. L. N. Talov (from 1949 to 1954), a MIFLI graduate, historian, became the director of the institute during the transitional time for the university. As of January 1, 1950, the total number of full-time and part-time students was over 1,800. By 1952, 84 teachers worked at 15 departments of the institute, among whom were two doctors and 33 candidates of science.

Famous scientists worked at the Faculty of History and Philology in those years: Doctor of Philology D. E. Tamarchenko, M. N. Belov - in subsequent years, the author of many studies on the history of the working class of pre-revolutionary Russia and the history of the Kostroma Territory, who in 1955 replaced K A. Buldakov as head of the Department of History of Russia. In 1953, the first graduation of the Faculty of History and Philology took place. Among the graduates of this year, N. N. Skatov, later a world-famous scientist, headed the Institute of Russian Literature (Pushkin House) for many years.

Many talented students were brought up by teachers of the Faculty of Physics and Mathematics Ya. D. Gilenko, B. F. Rubilov, Doctor of Physical and Mathematical Sciences D. A. Raikov, who had previously worked at the Mathematical Institute of the USSR Academy of Sciences.

Students of the natural faculty studied the nature of their native land together with their teachers: M. I. Toropova, P. I. Belozerov, N. I. Chudinovskikh, A. V. Aleksandrova, V. N. Kolpakov and other talented specialists. A very bright personality, a comprehensively erudite person and a creative researcher was Professor A. L. Zelikman. Until now, students study the zoology of invertebrates according to his practical work, published in 1965.

Thanks to the high qualification of teachers, scientific activity is strengthened at the institute. In 1951, the first collection of scientific papers of teachers and students of the institute, “Scientific Notes of the KSPI”, was published (the publication of each article at that time required permission from the Ministry of Education of the RSFSR). During the 1950-1951 academic year, a scientific student society was formed, uniting students in 15 scientific circles. By 1953, the NSO had 78 members. The best students received a direction in the capital's graduate schools.

Since 1954, the institute has been headed by F. M. Zemlyansky, an initiative rector, under whom a basic school appeared at the university - secondary school No. 29 in the city of Kostroma. School teachers are appointed by order of the rector of the institute, its students have priority when entering KSPI, students here test pedagogical innovations in practice.

In the 1950s the material and technical equipment of departments and classrooms is being improved, new educational laboratories are being opened. In the same year, a new hostel for 275 people was built on Tekstilshchikov Avenue for teachers and students of KSPI.

1960s–1980s - a period of increasing qualitative changes in the pedagogical institute, due to the introduction of universal secondary education in the country. M. I. Sinyazhnikov became the rector of the institute during this period, since 1961 he headed the KSPI for 25 years. The new rector organizes a close-knit team of competent specialists. Among them stood out such scientists and talented organizers as I. P. Shulman and A. K. Shustov, who were deputies of the rector for educational and scientific work, deans of the faculties of the university. For almost 30 years, N. I. Korochkin headed the correspondence department. All of them, having passed the roads of the Great Patriotic War with honor, managed to do a lot to strengthen the prestige of KSPI, worthily continued the best traditions in the development of national education.

In 1964, the educational building on May 1 Street (now building "A" of the university) was transferred to the university. Construction is underway with the subsequent commissioning of a hostel on Shchemilovka street for 850 people (1968), a sports building on Pyatnitskaya street (1973), and an educational building "B" (1982).

In connection with the transition to a five-year term of study, the educational and methodological work of faculties and departments is being reorganized.
During this period, the Faculty of History and Philology worked effectively, which in September 1966 would be divided into the Faculty of History and Education and the Faculty of Russian Language and Literature. Among the first graduates of the Eastfil with a five-year term of study are now well-known scientists not only in Kostroma, but throughout Russia - literary critics N. N. Skatov, Yu. V. Lebedev, V. V. Tikhomirov, dialectologist N. S. Gantsovskaya. Future teachers, KSPI graduates L. D. Volkova, B. M. Kozlov, T. I. Pakhomov, G. I. Mashirov, were inspired to research work by the most interesting lectures of philologists M. F. Pyanykh, M. L. Nolman, V. Ya. Bakhmutsky, O. A. Minukhina. In the mid 1960s. A. M. Melerovich, who became the founder of the Kostroma scientific phraseological school, comes to the department of the Russian language.

V. V. Andrushkevich, E. P. Osipovich, V. A. Krotova, students of the 1960s who later came to its departments as teachers highly appreciate the work of the then dean F. I. Sorokin. It is to him that the merit belongs in strengthening the status of the faculty, where in the mid-1960s. studied more than 350 students. In 1969, the Ural-2 electronic computer was installed, which laid the foundation for the creation of a computer center at the university.

The faculty of natural sciences also strengthened its scientific positions: in those years, 16 candidates of sciences already worked at its departments. A great contribution to the development of the research activities of the Faculty of Science was made by the inventor and innovator, Doctor of Biological Sciences B. M. Nidershtrat.

With the order of the Ministry of Education of the RSFSR dated May 21, 1960 on the transfer to the budget of the Pedagogical Institute of the Kostroma Art School, founded in 1905 by a graduate of the Academy of Arts N.P. Arts of the RSFSR A. I. Buzin. E. I. Mayansky, who developed curricula for the training of teachers of labor (the faculty trained teachers of drawing, drafting and labor), also stood at the origins of the art graph.

The faculty inherited the material and technical base of the school: a two-story stone building on Kooperatsia Street (house 8), a valuable library and a rich educational and methodological fund. Among the teachers of drawing, painting, composition are graduates of the capital's art institutes: honored artists V. A. Kutilin and M. S. Kolesov, People's Artist of the RSFSR A. P. Belykh.

On September 1, 1966, the Department of Foreign Languages ​​was opened at KSPI, which two years later was transformed into an independent faculty. E. B. Shutova, in those years the head of the Department of Foreign Languages, in a short time managed to select qualified teachers, the first among whom were I. A. Kabischer (Tikhonova), L. F. Skryabina, T. I. Ilyina, N. G. Oleinik.

In 1962, on the basis of the Faculty of History and Philology, one of the first and few departments in the country for the training of history teachers and pioneer leaders with higher education was opened. In 1966, the department was reorganized into an independent faculty for the training of teachers of history, social science and methodologists of pioneer work - historical and pedagogical. Since 1968, the only correspondence department in the country has been operating on its basis. A significant contribution to the formation of a new specialty was made by its first deans S. M. Mitsengendler, K. A. Voronina, A. N. Lutoshkin, the first head of the department of theory and methodology of pioneer work, the famous historian of the children's movement V. G. Yakovlev. Istped (informally - pioneer faculty) for many years becomes a kind of trademark of KSPI. He trained a significant number of talented teachers, organizers of the children's and youth movement, employees of management structures at various levels. Among its graduates there are many doctors and candidates of pedagogical, psychological and historical sciences.

In the 1980s, mobile responding to the needs of the national economy, KSPI opened new specialties and formed new faculties: general technical disciplines and labor (1983), musical and pedagogical (1984), pedagogy and methods of primary education (1985), physical culture ( 1989). In 1989, 9 faculties functioned as part of the institute, where 2,490 students studied. 286 teachers worked at 32 departments, including 11 professors, doctors of sciences and 119 candidates of sciences.

In the fall of 1989, the institute held elections for the first time for the head of the university on an alternative basis (V.S. Panin, who had worked as rector since 1986, resigned due to illness). N. M. Rassadin is elected Rector of KSPI. The assumption of the office of the new rector coincided with the era of perestroika hopes, but it was followed by an acute socio-economic crisis in the country. In difficult crisis conditions, with constant underfunding, the rector and his management team (first of all, vice-rectors S.N. Nikolaev, I.G. Asadulina, V.V. Chekmarev) managed not only to save the university, but also to ensure its accelerated development.

By 1994, KSPI became a recognized center of the regional system of continuous teacher education, exerting a significant influence on the organization of career guidance in the region, on the basic training of teachers in almost all specialties of the general education school, providing a large region of Russia with qualified personnel. The number of students at the Institute has doubled in 5 years. They received pedagogical education at 13 faculties in 19 specialties. There have been significant changes in the teaching staff. Their number exceeded four hundred, including about 170 doctors and candidates of sciences, professors and associate professors. The graduate school almost five times increased its staff (from 17 to 71 people), which worked in 14 specialties. In the period from 1991 to 1994, 4 doctors and 35 candidates of sciences were trained at KSPI. Two specialized councils for the defense of candidate dissertations began their activities. More than twenty scientific and practical conferences and seminars, including 13 international and republican ones, were held on the basis of the institute during this period. In addition to cooperation with colleagues from Russian pedagogical institutes, during these years KSPI established business, scientific and methodological relations with educational institutions of North Rhine-Westphalia (Germany), Darlington county (England), Halbeck province (Denmark), universities of France, Poland and other countries. .

The result of this work was summed up by the certification of the university, which was followed by the order of the Minister of Education of Russia on renaming from July 1994 to the Kostroma State Pedagogical University. N. A. Nekrasova.
The subsequent five-year period of activity of the university showed that the status of the Pedagogical University was intermediate for reaching a new level. Implementing the main ideas of the “Concept of the University of Education and Russian Culture”, developed and adopted by the Academic Council in the early 1990s, the university increased its potential in training students in specialties that go beyond the pedagogical nomenclature. By 1999, the scientific and pedagogical staff of the university reached the number of 520 people, having strengthened and qualitatively: 55 doctors of sciences, professors and about 250 candidates of sciences, associate professors conducted training sessions with students. Leading scientific schools have taken shape. Scientific directions in physical materials science, phytocenology and population biology, economic theory, national history, dialectology, phraseology, psychology, social education, social work, cultural studies were actively developing. Scientific meetings of the All-Russian and international level were held, cooperation ties were formed with educational and scientific organizations in Russia and abroad. The university opens branches in the city of Sharya, Kostroma region and in the city of Kirovsk, Murmansk region.

The logical outcome of these processes was the order of the Ministry of Education of the Russian Federation, issued on January 5, 1999, which secured the status of a classical university and the name “N. A. Nekrasov Kostroma State University” for the university.
