The Russian State Social University (RSSU) is the first social university in the country. Founded in 1991 with the aim of continuing research and teaching activities of the former High School of the Communist Party. Initially, research and teaching focused on social and political sciences. Gradually, the university’s activities expanded to project work on social policy for public institutions, as well as training and support for existing administrators.
RSSU became the first university in Russia to launch educational programs in the areas of social work, social work with youth, social insurance, and social support for disabled people.
