History of the department

The Department of Slavic Philology was established on January 24, 1888 under the name “Institute of Comparative Philology of Slavic Languages, Literatures and Art”. The Department of Slavic Philology had a theoretical philological and linguistic orientation and relied mainly on comparative historical principles, subsequently expanding the composition of languages, making the study of the spiritual life of the Slavic peoples more profound and substantial, paying attention to issues of methodology and the compilation of educational materials.

Today the Department is one of the most influential educational and research centers of Slavistics in Ukraine. It trains specialists of the first educational degree (Bachelors) and the second educational degree (Masters) of six areas of specialization: 035. 032 “Slavic Languages and Literatures (Translation Including), first – Bulgarian”, 035. 035 “Slavic Languages and Literatures (Translation Including), first – Serbian”, 035.036 “Slavic Languages and Literatures (Translation Including), first – Slovak”, 035.037 “Slavic Languages and Literatures (Translation Including), first – Croatian”, 035.038 “Slavic Languages and Literatures (Translation Including), first – Czech” 035.039 “Slavic Languages and Literatures (Translation Including), first – Slovenian “. During the course of study, in addition to the main Slavic language, students can also study Ukrainian, English and one more Slavic language of their choice.

The teaching staff of the Department is engaged in the study of topical problems of Slavic linguistics and literary studies, comparative studies, literary theory, history of Slavic studies, translation studies, methods of teaching Slavic languages and literatures, Ukrainian-Inoslavic relations, as well as Sorabistics in Ukraine and Europe.

The Department is one of the influential centers of translation of Ukrainian literature into Slavic languages, translation and popularization of Slavic literatures in Ukraine. The curator of this area of study is Professor Alla Tatarenko.

For twenty years, the Department has been cooperating with scientific institutions, international organizations and universities in Ukraine, Bulgaria, Belarus, Germany, Poland, Serbia, Slovakia, Croatia, the Czech Republic and other countries. The teaching staff and students of the Department participate in congresses, conferences, colloquia, as well as in international projects, scientific seminars, teaching practices, meetings with foreign guests, scientific internships, and summer schools. The teachers of the Department have been awarded with prizes and merit certificates from foreign universities, creative associations and organizations on multiple occasions.
