History

There is controversy about the DSPU's founding date. The “History” section of the DSPU site mentions 12 November 1917 when the Pedagogical Institute was opened in the town Temirkhan-Shura (modern Buynaksk). In 1931, the Pedagogical Institute was opened in Makhachkala.[3] However, in the “Information” section, the founding date of the DSPU is 1 November 1943.[4] On this day, by the decision of the Council of People's Commissars of the RSFSR No. 903, the Dagestan Women's Teacher's Institute was organized, in which girls of the indigenous ethnicities of Dagestan were trained as teachers for the seven-year schools of the republic. The institute began work on 1 October 1944.[5]

On 31 July 1951, the institute was named after the national poet of Dagestan Gamzat Tsadasa. By the Decree of the Council of People's Commissars of the Dagestan ASSR dated 4 August 1954, No. 285, the Dagestan State Women's Teacher's Institute was reorganized into the Dagestan State Women's Pedagogical Institute.[5] In 1964 it was transformed into the Dagestan State Pedagogical Institute. In 1994, the institute was transformed into the Dagestan State Pedagogical University.[5]

More than 15 thousand people study at the DSPU every year. In the second half of the 2000s, DSPU ranked second in terms of the number of students among the universities of the Southern Federal District.[6]
