«POISK» scientific newspaper has publsihed an article about the Tomsk State Pedagogical University called «It is all starts here». The history of the university,  information about up-to-date achivements and prospects, interview with the employees and leaders of student organizations – all this and more in the new issue of «Poisk» newspaper.

When designing the Teachers' Institute at the beginning of the 20th century, Fortunat Gut, the chief architect of the West Siberian Academic District, tried to combine beauty and practicality in his creation. The fascinating lines of the late modernist style and engineering approach made the building reliable and comdortable for living and to studying. In the pre-war years, the building of the first hostel was built, and in the second half of the last century the pedagogical institute received a new four-story educational building, which for many years had been the main building of the university. In the 90s there the fifth academic building was built along with two multystoried student hostels. Due to the increase of personnel requirements, two educational buildings were handed over to the university, unfortunately, they deperetly needed reconstruction. By 2000, the material base of the university was considerably dilapidated - three buildings of the TSPU were closed for major repairs. Two faculties became «homeless», the ever lasting shortage of training areas put the TSPU on the brink of closure. The story of how much effort did it take to restore and develop the facilities deserves record. At present, the university has nine academic buildings, four of which are new, a large scientific library and business incubator, a suburban training facilities base, a museum complex, three student hostels, a sports and recreational complex, the Poseidon pool, and a stadium. Thanks to the successful management of the university economy, the list of educational programs has expanded. Now the university carries out a multilevel (bachelor's, master's, specialist, postgraduate) professional training in 14 fields of specialties and directions. The scientific and educational process is provided by a highly qualified pedagogical staff. About 90% of the TSPU employees have academic degrees and titles. It is noteworthy that recently, next to the old building of the TSPU, a nice square and a monument of the work of Oleg of Kiev "My First Teacher" have appeared. The monument depits the desk, the boy behind it, the formulas on the blackboard and the young woman explaining their meaning. The sculpture was opened on Teacher's Day, in the Year of the Teacher. The monument, the Teacher's Square as well as the historic building of the Teachers' Institute, which was restored in 2008 - now the main building of the TSPU – are truly treasures of Tomsk.

In 2017, the Department of Languages ​​of the Peoples of Siberia of the Faculty of Foreign Languages ​​of the TSPU completed work on the project of the Russian Foundation for Basic Research "Typology of the relation category based on the Ob-Yenisei language" (supervised by A. Yu. Filchenko). The results of the research were published in authoritative journals on linguistics in Russia and abroad, and also presented at conferences of regional, Russian and international levels.

Studies on the new project will be carried out during three years, the analysis of the information structure of a simple sentence in this project assumes the presentation of a typological picture of the whole language area located in the Ob and Yenisei river basins based on the basic word order and the reasons for its violation in the different, genetically unrelated and distantly related languages ​​of the project (Yenisey, Finno-Ugric, Turkic).

The Ministry of Sport of the Russian Federation has awarded the student of Tomsk State Pedagogical University Valeriya Anisimova with  a sporting title "Master of Sport of Russia of International Class" in sambo.

Such a great achivement was brought by Valeriya's victories in the last autumn at the World Junior Championships in Serbia and the European Cup among women in Spain. Valeriya had developed her skills by training at the Faculty of Physical Culture and Sports at the TSPU as well as at the children's and youth sports school "Rus".

Tomsk State Pedagogical University and Tyumen State University continue to work within the framework of the agreement on cooperation in the field of development of inclusive education.

The main goal of the cooperation is the creation of special conditions that ensure accessibility and high quality of higher education for people with disabilities, as well as creating conditions for their socio-cultural rehabilitation and employment (in accordance with the state program "Affordable Environment").

TSPU and Tyumen State University will continue to develop the Resource Training and Methodological Center for the Education of People with Disabilities and achieve completely new results of inclusive educational activities in 2018.

On 22th of December  students and employees of the Tomsk state pedagogical university for the fifth time have organized «Space lesson» that took place in Korolev city in «Energy» museum.

Using an online broadcast provided by the State TV and Radio Company "Tomsk", kids from the Tomsk region as well as from Korolev and pupils of the Sirius Educational Center (Sochi) have met at the event. The main topic of the lesson was "Electromagnetic environment: Space Communication".

Among the experts of the lesson were: Hero of the Soviet Union, Pilot-Cosmonaut No. 57, Flight Director of the ISS Vladimir Solovyov; Soviet and Russian scientist, Corresponding Member of the Russian Academy of Sciences, Director of research organization "Kosmonit", Doctor of Technical Sciences, Professor Grigory Markelovich Chernyavsky; Adviser to the General Director of the Rocket and Space Corporation “Energia”, Honored Designer of the Russian Federation Alexander Chernyavsky. The foreword was made by Governor of the Tomsk Region A.S. Zhvachkin.

As usually, the lesson participants listened to the theoretical part, conducted by the graduate of the Physics and Mathematics Faculty of the TSPU Rustam Kononenko and the Associate Professor of the TSPU, Candidate of Pedagogical Sciences Alexei Removich Arzhanik. The theory was supported by demonstration of experiments, after which the kids asked questions to the ISS cosmonauts  Anton Shkaplerov and Alexander Misurkin.

Dear friends!

Please recall only the kindest moment of this year. Make your dearest wishes and while the bells are pealing, enter the New year 2018 with confidence!

I wish you all the best!
