State Academic University of Humanities(GAUGN, former GUGN) is a state higher education institution based on individual institutes of the Russian Academy of Sciences. Initially it bore the names: Russian Center for Humanitarian Education (RCHE), State University for the Humanities (GUGN).

Story

“Academic regulations should be like this... so that the Academy can not only satisfy itself with learned people, but also multiply them and distribute them throughout the state...” M. Lomonosov

In the early 1990s. The idea arose of creating a separate university at the Russian Academy of Sciences, which could partially fill the lack of humanitarian knowledge in modern Russian society. The Russian Center for Humanitarian Education (RCHE) became such an educational institution in 1992, a great contribution to the creation of which was made by a number of outstanding Russian scientists, including academicians A. O. Chubaryan (its future rector), V. L. Makarov, A. A. Guseinov , V. S. Stepina et al.

It is important to note that it was not intended to create a purely humanitarian university. The initial idea envisaged the creation of a university covering all areas of knowledge of the Academy of Sciences, thus the creators of the RCGS intended to see faculties of exact sciences. The name was also supposed to be different - University of the Russian Academy of Sciences (URAS). Due to various difficulties encountered, this concept was not implemented. But attempts to implement this idea do not stop to this day.

University birthday

The State Academic University of Humanities still does not have an official date of formation, since several such dates can be found in its history. The first of them is the day of signing the Resolution of the Council of Ministers No. 244 of April 13, 1992 on the creation of the Republican Center for Humanitarian Education. Another possible date of birth of the university can be considered the day of signing the Order of the Government of the Russian Federation of February 24, 1994, when the Center was given the status of a university. The third date of birth of the university is August 21, 1998, when the RCGO (University) was renamed by Order of the Ministry of Education of the Russian Federation No. 2208 into the State University of Humanities, that is, it received one of the modern names.

To be fair, it is worth noting that the unofficial date of birth of GAUGN is considered to be the day that RCGS was given university status. But there is still no official day when students and teachers could celebrate the university’s birthday.

Structure

The university consists of a number of faculties based in the relevant institutes of the Russian Academy of Sciences.

  • Faculty of History -
  • Faculty of Cultural Studies -
  • Faculty of World Politics -
  • Faculty of Political Science -
  • Faculty of Law -
  • Psychology faculty -
  • Faculty of Sociology -
  • Faculty of Philosophy -
  • Department of Economics -
  • Faculty of Book Culture and Management - Publishing House of the Russian Academy of Sciences "Science"
  • The Faculty of Advanced Training and Retraining of Teaching Staff is actually inter-institutional, as it implements educational programs across the entire spectrum of scientific areas of the University as a whole.

The deans of faculties, with rare exceptions, are directly the directors of scientific institutes. These people are world famous scientists in their fields. This distribution of faculties allows for a close connection between higher education and science and the most modern global trends in the fields of knowledge being studied. The largest scientists are involved in teaching, which makes it possible to conduct training using the latest achievements of domestic and world science. In terms of the number of prominent academic researchers and specialists in various fields of humanities involved in teaching, the University has no analogues in the Russian humanities education system. Every year, a high percentage of university graduates are accepted into both their own and graduate schools of the basic scientific institute in various specialties.

In 2005, to strengthen ties between institutions of higher professional education of the Russian Federation and institutes of the Russian Academy of Sciences, a Scientific and Educational Complex was created, which coordinates research and educational activities in the widest range of humanities specialties.

The Scientific and Methodological Council for the History of the Russian Ministry of Education and Science operates on the basis of GAUGN.

Training courses

The historically established education system at GAUGN makes it possible to train specialists in the humanities starting from high school. For this purpose, the university organized preparation courses for entering the university for applicants. Research staff from academic institutes of the Russian Academy of Sciences and teachers from the State University of Economics and Science are involved in teaching the courses, which allows applicants to fully immerse themselves in the university education system. An important feature of the preparatory courses is a broad, thorough training program in all examination disciplines, thanks to which course participants have the opportunity to enter any Moscow university in the relevant field.

Classes are held in the evening two to three times a week at the premises of the Institute of Philosophy of the Russian Academy of Sciences at the address: Moscow, st. Volkhonka, 14/1, building 5.

student life

Due to the specifics of the university, primarily due to the dispersion of faculties in different regions of Moscow, for a long time university students could not boast of a rich extracurricular life. During the first decade of the University's existence, several student attempts were made to unite students from different faculties (the first of which were projects by D. Fomin-Nilov, A. Akhadov, I. Polsky, etc.). As a result, a single body of student self-government was created - the Student Council of GAUGN. It was this association of GAUGN students, formed on the basis of annual elections of course representatives, that took on the functions of organizing leisure time within the university.

Initiation as a student

The idea of ​​initiating applicants enrolled in the first faculty into students, similar to similar events in other universities, was born in 2001. Until this time, initiation into students took place in the building of the Russian Academy of Sciences. The idea belongs to students of the Faculty of Political Science. The idea of ​​holding such an event was supported by proactive students from other faculties and was first implemented just a few weeks after the start of classes in the 2001-2002 academic year - on an autumn day off. A large and cozy clearing in the near Moscow region, on the outskirts of the village of Tolstopaltsevo, was chosen as the venue for the dedication. The idea of ​​initiation was accepted with interest by both the students and the initiates themselves, as a result of which the annual holding of such a trip the following year became a tradition, which to this day remains the main event of extracurricular life for many university students.

Usually the date is chosen to be a Saturday at the end of September or the first weekend of October. The organization and preparation are carried out by senior students themselves on a voluntary basis. On the appointed day, all faculties of GAUGN gather in the Tolstopaltsevskaya meadow. The initiation itself can be divided into two parts. In the first half of the day, first-year students complete a number of tasks specially prepared for them by the organizers, for which teams (faculties) receive points. These could be competitions for ingenuity, dexterity, mutual assistance, or logic tasks. Simply put, everything that will allow students of each faculty to unite more closely and get to know each other better in the process of completing these tasks. After passing these stages, they all gather in the center of the clearing, where, in a solemn field setting, the winning faculty with the most points is awarded, and its representative is given a challenge flag. Then, all first-year students, on bended knee, read out a solemn oath, after which they become “real” students of the university.

Symbols of dedication

  • The winner's challenge pennant was used once, at the first dedication in 2001, and was soon lost.
  • The winner's challenge flag (on a white background) - appeared in 2002, but was lost after the dedication in 2006. It is with him that the emergence of the unofficial student motto of the university “GUGN is timeless” is associated.
  • The winning flag (on a yellow background) was recreated (in a new form) in 2008. The unofficial motto “GUGN is timeless” was retained, despite the renaming of the university to GAUGN.
  • Multi-colored ribbons - each faculty is assigned its own color. All students, graduates and freshmen traditionally wear these ribbons to express their involvement in their faculty.

Freshman Oath

I, still a very young freshman, who does not know what a polycentric world is, have never gone to the cinema during class. I swear by mathematical induction that in 5 or even 10 years I will also know what a polycentric world is. I swear on my future notes that I will complete the required number of special courses, special seminars and absenteeism. I will approach all aspects of my education with integrity, embracing opportunities to learn from fellow students and faculty. I will appreciate the knowledge and wisdom of the students who came before me. I publicly acknowledge and accept the privileges and responsibilities given to me as a student. I will always maintain the highest standards of professional conduct. I recognize my weaknesses and strengths, and will strive to develop those qualities that will earn the respect of my fellow students and teachers. I will be tactful in my words and actions. I will respect the rights and decisions of teachers and will attend to them without prejudice. I will appreciate the diversity of experiences, cultures, and beliefs of my fellow students and teachers because it will increase my ability to care about them and enrich my education. I make these promises solemnly, freely and with honor. If I break this sacred oath, then let my scholarship be integrated in a closed loop, divided into 2 parts and give me only one part of it, and let me dream about the session every night!

Beauty contest

The Miss GAUGN beauty contest is held (almost) annually. The competition program includes the following parts: “Introducing myself”, “The talent that I possess”, defile and presentation of prizes. The first three parts are, in essence, mini-competitions in which participants gain points. The participant who scores the most points becomes the winner. In addition, there are official nominations for first and second runner-up.

  • 2005 - economics
  • 2006 - political science
  • 2007 - was not carried out
  • 2008 - law
  • 2009 - management
  • 2010 - was not carried out
  • 2011 - economics

Mini-football League GAUGN

Football at GAUGN became a significant event for student life in 2007, when, through the efforts of students, the first University Cup was held in the spring, and the regular championship, played in a round-robin system, began in the fall. Teams from the faculties of sociology, law, psychology, history, philosophy and political science (united), economics and management (united), world politics, and also, until the beginning of 2010, cultural studies, participate in tournaments within the framework of GAUGN.

Football at GAUGN does not have widespread information support; in particular, it is completely ignored by the older generations of the initiative group of students and graduates. However, at the moment, this is one of the most effective methods of establishing interfaculty integration, since games during the season are attended by a fairly large number of fans.

All games are held at the expense of the participants and are organized through their efforts. League matches are officiated by invited professional referees.

In addition, the league has established special individual prizes for the top scorers of various competitions, as well as prizes for the best players, goalkeepers, defenders, forwards and young players (“discoveries”) of the season. Since 2010, a special prize has been awarded to the best support group among fans from different faculties of GAUGN.

Integrative student portal GUGN.ru

The idea of ​​creating a virtual platform for communication between students from all faculties of the university appeared a long time ago. Attempts to implement it have also been encountered more than once (this is evidenced by the great many informal sites related to GAUGN; today there are about three dozen of them), but their implementation, at best, ended within the framework of a separate faculty, or even nothing at all. Many of these projects are still alive today. But one of the main milestones in the development of interfaculty communication and student unification is the creation of an integrative student portal GUGN.ru.

History of creation

This idea belongs to several psychology students. Having gathered a mini-conference on the Internet in the summer of 2004, registering the appropriate domain and enlisting the support of some students from other faculties, it was decided to create a website. Subsequently, it was these students who formed the backbone of the initiative group. The creation of all pages of the portal was carried out exclusively by the students themselves, without any technical support from the university administration or specialized organizations; the entire burden of responsibility also fell solely on the shoulders of the initiative group.

The main focus of the integrative portal was a forum where university students, as well as other interested parties, could immediately start communicating. In a short time, the forum became widely known and within a month or two it could be said that the main goal set by the creators was achieved - close communication between students began. In the first months of the portal’s operation, more interfaculty meetings were held than in all previous years of the university’s operation. Moreover, the GUGN.ru forum played the main role in their organization. Beginning in 2004, he began to play one of the key roles during the period of organizing, conducting and discussing initiation into students (up until that point, communication between faculties was somewhat difficult).

Despite a number of technical and financial difficulties, the portal developed. With the help of students, various sections of it were created in a short time: pages of the university and faculties, a photo album, an alumni page (its idea is reminiscent of current social networks) and many others. It is important to note that all these sites were created, again, only by the students themselves, and were of very high quality in a technical sense.

Portal today

Despite the “change of generations” in the initiative group, the portal lives and develops. Due to various problems of the past, mainly of a technical and financial nature, due to interruptions in the operation of the portal through no fault of its creators, it has still not been possible to restore some of its previously existing sections. But the work is ongoing and recently new sections have appeared, primarily related to the development of student self-organization at the university. As before, not a single student event can be organized without the help of the forum; it is still the main means of communication for students of different faculties of GAUGN.

The Federal State Budgetary Educational Institution of Higher Professional Education "State Academic University of the Humanities" (GAUGN) was founded on February 24, 1994. President - Academician of the Russian Academy of Sciences Alexander Oganovich Chubaryan, rector - Doctor of Historical Sciences, Professor Mikhail Vadimovich Bibikov.

GAUGN operates on the basis of research institutes of the Russian Academy of Sciences. It has the following faculties: history, world politics, political science, psychology, sociology, philosophy, economics, law, cultural studies, book culture and management, as well as an institute for advanced training and retraining of teaching staff. Prepares bachelors and masters; postgraduate school is running. The largest Russian scientists participate in the educational process, which allows training using the latest achievements of domestic and world science. In terms of the number of academicians of the Russian Academy of Sciences, corresponding members of the Russian Academy of Sciences, doctors and candidates of sciences involved in teaching, the University has no analogues in the system of humanities education in Russia. In 2005, a scientific and educational center for history was created. The scientific and methodological council on history of the Ministry of Education and Science of the Russian Federation successfully operates on the basis of the university.

The university cooperates with 30 foreign universities and research centers.

The main difference between GAUGN and other Russian universities is the integration of academic science and university education, which is implemented in practice, which gives students the opportunity to immerse themselves in the world of academic science from the first year, listen to lectures by leading Russian world-famous scientists and even participate in scientific events themselves. Small courses (20-25 people) make it possible to provide an individual approach to each student, which allows you to shape the educational process taking into account the interests of the student, the needs of Russian science, education and the modern labor market.

I am a first year student at the Faculty of Philosophy. This year has created positive emotions, and I don’t regret one bit that I entered here. The intimacy of the university contributes to the fact that everyone knows each other and everyone communicates, which turns into very, very interesting events, activities, and even simple get-togethers. The level of teaching is very high, the vast majority of teachers are current professors of the Russian Academy of Sciences. As a result, the quantity and quality of knowledge obtained is very good.

I am a 2nd year political science student. I entered the university a year ago. Strong teachers, active scientists with academic degrees. Everyone wants to convey all the experience and all the knowledge they have. The dean's office will always help and accommodate you. There are 40 people in the group, divided into subgroups based on the subject of English. So to speak, a cozy, “lamp” university, where everyone knows each other and can help in a difficult situation.

Also, university life is full of social events, which...
