Orenburg State University Department of History. Orenburg State University: address, faculties, branches. Studying at OSU. Univer is a different life

"Where has life led the humanities" :)

School

A Komsomol member, an athlete ... Studying at school No. 32 in the city of Orel fell on the "amazing" 90s. At this time, something was constantly being reformed, classes were connecting and disconnecting, they were already trying to introduce new programs. The school has become a lyceum with specialized classes. As a result, while studying at the same school, I visited three different teams. Until the 7th grade, I was a typical smart girl, that's how my parents raised me. To be happy, then I had to get rid of the need to always be the first and the best for a long time ... From the 8th grade I studied in a class with a humanitarian bias: solid literature and history. These subjects were easy for me, it was not difficult to study, but later, faced with real demands on the labor market, I realized that I had to cram math!

Last call?

At that time, the question: to receive or not to receive higher education - did not even stand. Of course, receive! It was considered a normal continuation of life after school, but in fact - a continuation of childhood. Now, in my opinion, everything is different: young people are in a hurry to start earning money, including for their education. It seems to me more reasonable, from the height of my 30 years. But I can confess that at the age of 17 I did not know about real life NOTHING. The time was not easy, 1998, then another crisis broke out and there was no question of earning a living on my own. As for the choice of the university, here the most eloquent argument was my certificate, in which there were fives in the humanities and fours in the rest. I must say that in some subjects (in chemistry, physics) the fours were set solely out of respect for my victories at the olympiads in Russian, English and literature, and for the essays that were read out in the teacher's room. The only serious liberal arts university in my city was Oryol State University(former Pedagogical Institute). That's where I got to.

Admission to OSU. Take me, I'm good!

I entered, like many then, to a free department, but for the money of my parents, to the faculty for which, in fact, this money was enough. I explain: about six months before admission, my parents organized classes for me with a tutor from the Faculty of History. Paying for these classes became for me a pass to the world of great knowledge. But the language does not dare to call it a bribe, since I was given very good knowledge high level, which were very useful in further studies, and I looked quite decent on the exam. There were three entrance exam: history, Russian and composition. Of course, I was worried, I didn’t want to fall face down in the dirt. The lessons and patronage of the tutor, innate literacy and well-read helped me to get on all highest mark even in writing. The passing score was high - 14. Of course, with my fifteen points, I was accepted.

Studying at OSU. Univer is a different life!

After the cramped school walls, the university seemed like a huge world. Everything seemed unusual: spacious classrooms, interesting lectures, important teachers. Here, no one controlled and did not convince to study, did not pass - flew out of the university. This immediately stimulated a normal attitude towards learning. All first-year students were in the same situation, so contacts were established easily and for a long time. There were all sorts of things: they ran away from the couples, and they caught “freebies” in the record book, and they were weird in every way ... For example, before the New Year, they took a test in pedagogy from a harmful young teacher. It turned out that no one was prepared, not even inveterate crammers. We called our friends Santa Claus and the Snow Maiden, put the test books in the grandfather's bag and went to the dean's office with songs and dances ... We played a whole performance, the teachers almost tore their stomachs, and everyone got the test ...

The lecturers of the Faculty of History are mostly "bisons" in their field, enthusiastic specialists, entirely professors and their students, which could not but arouse awe among students. Sloppiness and disrespectful attitude to the subject were not tolerated. Otherwise, they were quite pleasant people with whom it was always possible to negotiate. Monetary requisitions at the faculty were not common at all.

During my studies, I paid for exams only twice, and both times - not very adequate teachers from other faculties. Examinations, including graduations, were usually held in a calm, friendly atmosphere.

In the photo - the building Faculty of Law OSU:

Studying was easy for me, thanks to a good visual memory and the ability to quickly memorize huge amounts of information. For example, plump worn tomes on the history of Asian and African countries could be mastered a couple of nights before the exam. Never crammed to exhaustion. By the third year, I realized that I needed to “strain” closer to the session, and I always prepared seriously for exams. Although, of course, everything depended on the specific subject and teacher. It is always better to know less, but understand what you are saying, than to crammed verbatim meaningless text.

In passing, she received another higher education - a civil servant at the Oryol Regional Academy public service(ORAGS). Why - I still don’t understand, because this expensive university did not give me any special knowledge by the standards of our city (2001-2003, 25 thousand rubles for three years). I suspect that the history department was no longer enough for my trained brains, so I rushed to conquer new heights. And again a diploma with honors, although I did not specifically strive for it. I just got used to doing everything with dignity, so as not to blush later.

It was a very easy, fun, "golden" time! I was a chicken who continued to sit in a warm nest. No worries and problems, I was only required to study. Out of the corner of my ear I heard the stories of classmates, especially visitors, about how they manage to study and work and how they solve the pressing problems of housing, food ... But then I didn’t have any household worries, I blissfully “dangled” around the neck of my parents.

Not only study...

Imperceptibly formed the backbone of the course, we always stuck together and solved all the problems of study and not only. We had a wonderful time outside of classes: there were hikes and barbecues, walks around the city and gatherings in cafes. Thanks to trade union vouchers, we went on vacation to Sevastopol and St. Petersburg.

Love at the faculty, of course, was spinning, both inside and between courses. The result was as many as four weddings of our classmates, it is a pity that two families have already broken up. There was even one wedding of our student with a young handsome teacher. Now they have two children. With my personal life, I, perhaps, will not surprise anyone, since since school I met a young man who, after graduating from high school, became my husband. And now - also the father of our two sons. My relationship with the opposite sex in high school was wonderful, but purely friendly.

Years of study were not in vain - that's for sure!

It was at the university that an excellent schoolgirl turned into normal person made good friends, gained life experience...

The Faculty of History gave me an encyclopedic knowledge of the humanities, an interest in history and the present, and an understanding of the social processes that are now taking place in the world. The Faculty of History taught me to coherently express my thoughts, defend my point of view in a dispute, correctly search for and process information and plan my time and effort. It was very useful to me in later life and work. But as for specifically the specialty "teacher of history", it was not useful to me. I did not work at the university, and not only because of the low salaries, but also because of the confusion in the field of education. It was my conscious choice, although many from my course went to graduate school, and now - to doctoral studies. For me, higher education has become the starting point for further self-improvement.

Where to go?

It soon became clear that an inexperienced specialist with a red diploma in history had nowhere to go, except for network marketing. Two months after graduation, I found a part-time job - with an individual entrepreneur, took orders by phone, formed requests for a supplier. The money was small, but I was ashamed to sit idle, and the experience of communicating with real clients came in handy later.

Six months later, she got a job as an office manager in a trading company. The work, frankly, is stressful, but she taught me how to talk with people correctly, never lose my temper, clearly calculate my time and efforts. Two years later, the position of Deputy Director for Logistics and Business Planning became vacant, and the General Director took me to this place. As a true humanist, working with numbers and programs at first seemed like hell to me. I felt like, to put it mildly, a snotty child, from whom anyone can take away a lollipop. But I could not fail to justify the trust of the head and, moreover, to refuse an impressive salary (30 thousand for our city is not bad even for a man) I could not. I had to study again, since the excellent student in me has not yet died to the end. I took work home, worked on weekends for more than a year, until, finally, I perfected my work and felt confident in my abilities. Now I am a historian-logistician-economist rolled into one. But my humanitarian education makes itself felt. In addition to my main job, I organize corporate parties for my company, conduct trainings and certification of personnel, field seminars and exhibitions for my company ... Deep down I feel that I would make a talented teacher. Maybe in vain I went into the "corrupt" business? However, not everything is lost, the excellent student still has a whole life ahead of her ...

Conclusion

What is the conclusion from my quite prosperous story? You can wait for "freebies" or hope for connections and bribes, but no one will study and build a life for you. Higher education will give a lot only to those who are ready to take it a lot. It is not worth going to the university for a piece of paper. Precious time at the university must be used wisely, not neglecting studies, finding true comrades and, most importantly, deciding who you are and what you want in these five or six years.

As well as the full-time (full-time), correspondence department of the Faculty of History made a very significant contribution to the training of teachers of history and social science not only for schools in the Oryol region, but also for many regions of Russia, Ukraine, Belarus, the North Caucasus and Transcaucasia. Many graduates of the Faculty of History have become good school directors, employees of departments and departments public education, successful administrators in the public administration system of the city of Orel and the Oryol region, in the system of law enforcement agencies.

The origins of the idea of ​​​​creating a higher educational institution in Orel for the first time date back to the era of the First World War, when the intelligentsia of the provincial center, developing the initiative of the Ministry of Industry and Trade of 1916, in January-March 1917 created a "commission for the organization of a people's university - polytechnic." In May of the same year, the issue of its creation was discussed by the Oryol city commission for public education. The result of the work was a report submitted on September 7, 1918 to the Provincial Executive Committee, which contained a conclusion about the need to create a university in Orel with a set of classical faculties.

However, the events of the autumn of 1917 changed the situation in the country and the province, and the new authorities returned to the issue of creating a university a year later, when on October 31, 1918, Oryol Proletarian University named after V.I. Lenin, which opened on November 5 of the same year and existed in Orel until 1920.

However, talking about the creation in Orel of a full-fledged state university with a classic set of faculties dates back to 1919, when on June 23 the decision of the Collegium of Higher Educational Institutions of the People's Commissariat for Education took place, which created the Oryol State University. This day can rightly be considered the birthday of the university as a classical university, the leading educational institution in the region.

As a follow-up to this decision, on March 19, 1920, the Board of the Oryol Provincial Committee for Education adopts the Decree “On the reorganization of the Oryol Proletarian University” and on the creation on its basis and on the basis of the Institute of Public Education of the Oryol State University.

In a short time, on the basis of the scientific and pedagogical personnel available in the city (forces, as they said a century ago), the backbone of the teaching staff was created, students were recruited for two faculties. In the spirit of the era, a workers' faculty was created at OSU.

Changes in state policy in the field higher education led to the adoption on November 4, 1921 of the Decree of the Council of People's Commissars (on the basis of the decision of the Collegium of the People's Commissariat of Education of August 18, 1921) to establish the Higher Pedagogical Institute on the basis of OSU. His Grand opening took place on October 9, 1921. However, the further course of the country's leadership towards the specialization of higher education led to the decision of November 15, 1922 to close the Oryol Higher Pedagogical Institute. The students were transferred to other universities and technical schools, and the teaching staff of the university went to work in the Oryol Pedagogical and Mechanical and Construction College. However, after a few years, the development of higher education in the Oryol region received a new impetus.

In 1927, groups for the training of engineers were created at the Mechanical Construction College in parallel with groups for the training of specialists with a secondary education, and on August 5, 1931, by order of the Council People's Commissars RSFSR in Orel, an industrial and pedagogical institute was created, the grand opening of which took place on October 16, 1931, consisting of four faculties (physical and technical, chemical and biological, socio-economic (literary and public, polytechnical). In 1932, a Worker Faculty, Evening Institute (until 1938) In January 1933, the Belgorod Pedagogical Institute was merged with the OGPI.

Since 1934 (September 1) - two institutes have been structurally created as part of the university - a teacher's institute with a two-year training period and a pedagogical one, with a four-year training period, which produced teachers for secondary schools. During the period of maintaining this structure until 1952, the university was called the Oryol State Pedagogical and Teachers' Institute, retaining the name Oryol Pedagogical Institute in the press and documents of internal circulation. The institute has a Rabfak (until 1949), established within the framework of OSU in 1920, and an exemplary school.

In 1940, the first two volumes of "Scientific Notes of the Oryol State Pedagogical Institute" were published: T. I "Natural Science and Chemistry"; T. II "Physics and Mathematics".

The further development of the OGPI was determined by the Great Patriotic War. In June 1941, 200 students and teachers left the institute for the front.

On August 23, 1941, by order of the People's Commissariat of Education of the RSFSR, the OGPI was evacuated to the city of Birsk, Bashkir Autonomous Soviet Socialist Republic, where the Birsk Pedagogical Institute was established on the basis of the teacher's technical school, retaining the structure of the Oryol Pedagogical Institute.

On November 20, 1943, by order of the Council of People's Commissars of the RSFSR, the OGPI was reevacuated to Yelets, and in August 1944 returned to Orel.

1945 - the first post-war collection of "Scientific Notes of the Oryol State Pedagogical Institute" was published, in the same year the first dissertation for the degree of Doctor of Science was defended at the university (Ya.Ya. Tseeb).

In 1952, the teacher's institute of the Oryol Pedagogical and Teachers' Institute was closed, which was renamed the Oryol State Pedagogical Institute

In 1954, the first postgraduate course in the history of the OGPI was opened at the Department of the Russian Language. In the same year, an evening department was opened. In the same year, on February 26, technical education in Orel took on the form of higher education. In the structure of the All-Union Correspondence Machine-Building Institute (VZMI), the Oryol UKP was created. On November 30, 1960, the General Technical Faculty of VZMI was created on its basis. On June 29, 1962, a full-time form of education was introduced in the OTF VZMI, and on June 6, 1966, it was transformed into the Oryol branch of the VZMI.

November 6, 1981 Decree of the Presidium of the Supreme Soviet of the USSR OGPI awarded the order"Badge of honor".

On April 21, 1988, the OF VZMI was transformed into the Oryol branch of the Moscow Institute of Instrument Engineering (OF MIP), on May 17, 1993, into the Oryol State Polytechnic Institute, and on March 14, 1995, the Oryol State Polytechnic Institute was renamed into the Oryol State Technical University.

In 1994 - OGPI received the status of a pedagogical university (Oryol State Pedagogical University - OGPU), and in 1996 it was transformed into a classical university. June 6 of the same year - on the basis of OrelGTU, an educational-scientific-industrial complex (UNPK) is created.

In 2002 Government Prize Russian Federation in the field of education for scientific and practical development for educational institutions of higher vocational education“Improving the quality of engineering and technology education based on continuity and interuniversity integration scientific schools engineering technologists” was awarded to a group of OrelGTU employees. In 2003 creative team The University was awarded the Prize of the President of the Russian Federation in the field of education for scientific and practical development for the system of vocational education and scientific and innovative infrastructure of the regions "University educational and scientific production complex as the basis for the development of education, the economy and the social sphere of the region."

On November 25, 2010, OryolGTU was renamed into the State University - an educational, scientific and industrial complex, and in 2015 into the Prioksky State University.

In the same year, a decision was made by the Government of the Russian Federation on the establishment of a Flagship University in the Oryol Region, in pursuance of which in 2016 (April 1) the foundation of the Flagship University “Oryol State University named after I.S. Turgenev" ....

THIS IS JUST THE BEGINNING …

This is a dynamically developing multidisciplinary higher educational institution, which has existed for more than half a century and trains highly qualified specialists for the region and other regions of our country. Many applicants choose this university. According to available statistics, more than 45% of the region's students study at OSU.

History of the university

OSU opened in 1955. However, at first the educational institution did not have the status of a university. It was just an evening department of the Kuibyshev Industrial Institute, functioning in Chkalov (the former name of Orenburg). The first changes in the history of the educational institution took place in 1961 - it was decided to reorganize the evening department into a branch.

The university gained independence a little later - in 1971. It became the Orenburg Polytechnic Institute. In 1996, the educational institution increased the list of offered specialties. The institute began to graduate not only engineers and acquired the status of a classical one, it was renamed the Orenburg State University. Under this name, the university continues to function at the present time.

Buildings of an educational institution

Each applicant wants to get into a university where studying is not only interesting, but also comfortable. OGU just meets this requirement. There are 21 educational buildings at the disposal of students. All buildings are equipped in accordance with modern requirements. The educational buildings are equipped with lecture halls, computer classes, 190 multimedia projectors. Educational and laboratory equipment is purchased annually.

Educational buildings are located in different parts of the city. Applicants do not need to know the location of all buildings, because only one of them works selection committee Orenburg State University. The address of this building is: 13 Pobedy Ave. It is here that documents are accepted every year.

Prestigious and popular faculties

One of the leading divisions of OSU is the Faculty of Architecture and Civil Engineering. It offers such areas as "Architecture", "Design", "Design of the architectural environment", "Urban planning", "Construction", "Land management and cadastres". The faculty is famous for the high quality of education, which is confirmed by information about graduates. Among the people who have received knowledge and a diploma here, there are leaders of construction, road, design organizations, successful designers.

Prestigious and popular, but at the same time a young structural unit of the university - the Faculty of Economics and Management. My educational activities he started in 2004. The faculty offers a variety of areas for preparing bachelors: "Applied Mathematics", "Applied Informatics", "Economics", "Management", "Commodity Science", "Trade", "Business Informatics". In the structural unit, the life of students is not limited to classes. Students regularly participate in forums, seminars, television programs on topical economic issues.

Another important advantage of the faculty is the acceptable cost of education.

Institutes in the structure of an educational institution

In addition to faculties, there are institutes at Orenburg State University. There are only 2 of them - the Aerospace Institute and the Institute of Management. The first of them has been officially operating since 1998, but in fact it originated much earlier. It happened in 1961, when the mechanical faculty of evening education was organized. The structural subdivision began its activities with training in the specialty "Technology of mechanical engineering, cutting, machine tools and tools." Today, the list of training areas includes:

• "Engineering".
• "Automation of production and technological processes".
• "Innovation".
• "Aircraft".
• "Cosmonautics and Rocket Systems".
• "Robotics and mechatronics", etc.

The Institute of Management is the youngest structural unit at the Orenburg State University, organized on February 1, 2016.

Curricula were also developed in such areas of training as "Management", "Personnel Management", "Customs", "Municipal and public administration”, “Service”, “Tourism”.

University branches

Educational activities of OSU are carried out not only in the head university. In parallel, it is being conducted in three cities where branches of the Orenburg State University are located:

In conclusion, it is worth noting that the Orenburg State University in Orenburg was originally a polytechnic institute. However, the university decided not to stop at this status, because the employees understood that the region needed not only engineers. From a polytechnic institute, the educational institution was transformed into a multidisciplinary university. The list of training areas has expanded, but the university decided not to forget about its past profile. It is for this reason that today OSU continues to increase engineering and technical specialties.
