History
In 1916, it was decided to open a branch of the Imperial Petrograd University in Perm, which a year later became the independent Perm State University. The newly built building of the Provincial Zemstvo Office on Sibirskaya Street was given to the needs of the university.
On October 2, 1919, the Institute of public education (INE) was created in Perm. On September 9, 1921, by resolution of the planning committee of the Main Department of Education the Perm Institute of Public Education was transformed into a teacher training institute, which is considered to be the date of its birth. Initially it had three departments: pre-school education, pedagogical and school-instructional. However, in 1922 the institute ceased to exist as an independent educational institution.
In July, 1922 the teachers and students of the institute were united with the Perm state university; together with the faculty of social sciences and shortened physical and mathematical faculty they formed the Pedagogical department.
