Pyatigorsk State University (PSU)

The date of foundation of Pyatigorsk State University is considered to be June 27, 1939, when the Pedagogical School officially became a higher educational institution. Since then, the university has undergone various changes and transformations - an increase in the number of years of study, several renamings - and officially became known as Pyatigorsk State University in 2016. 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, a two-week pilot project from Pyatigorsk State University was launched, aimed at restoring the Russian language knowledge of the teachers of the University of Camaguei, who received higher education in various universities of the Soviet Union.

To implement such a large-scale project, it is necessary to train our own personnel as a support for our teachers of the Russian language, who will conduct training in a hybrid online offline format.

There is a very high interest in learning Russian and receiving Russian education in Cuba: the number of Cuban students choosing Russian as a foreign language at all levels of education is growing. PSU’s “export portfolio” has quality programs that are needed in Cuba and other Latin American countries.

The University of Camagüey is waiting for the continuation of our Russian language courses, there are requests for professional development of Cuban teachers!
