Since 2005, the head of the university is Professor Gorbunov Alexander Pavlovich. By 2009, 10 faculties were formed at the university. Further, on their basis, institutes and higher schools were created, having one of the faculties in their composition. In addition, PSU is actively developing the system of pre-university, postgraduate and additional education. It has a branch in Novorossiysk. Currently, the university has 34 departments. Now Pyatigorsk State University has more than 5,500 students and 3,000 students from different regions of Russia and foreign countries. All the peoples of the Caucasus are also represented in PSU.

Recently, teachers of the Department of Tourism and Hospitality of the IIYAMT PSU, on the initiative of the Ministry of Tourism and Health Resorts of the UK, held a quiz "Guide to the Caucasian Mineral Waters" for groups from the city of St. Petersburg and the Khanty-Mansiysk Autonomous Okrug, who are resting in the children's health camp of our city.

The event served as a great way to acquaint participants with the beauty and features of our unique region.

It was interesting and informative for children to get to know the amazing places of the Caucasus, in which our teachers helped them!
