history
The university was founded on the initiative of Azerbaijani President Heydər Əliyev in 2000 from the former “Pedagogical Institute for Russian Language and Literature”, which was founded in 1945. During the time of the Soviet Union , mainly Russian teachers were trained there. Since the name was changed to the Slavic University of Baku, other Slavic languages such as Polish or Czech can also be studied there, and additional faculties, such as the journalism faculty, have been set up.
