Perspective

In 1945, the newly established institute was named after the philosopher H. S. Skovoroda.

In the 1960s, the institute had over 3,000 students; 4 faculties (Physics and Mathematics, Philology, Natural Sciences, and Physical Education), evening and correspondence departments, and a postgraduate program.

In 1994, according to a decree of the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine, the status of the Kharkiv State Pedagogical Institute named after H. S. Skovoroda was changed—it was transformed into the Kharkiv State Pedagogical University named after H. S. Skovoroda.

In 2004, the university was granted national status and has since been called Kharkiv National Pedagogical University named after H. S. Skovoroda.

On the university grounds stood a monument to the Ukrainian philosopher Hryhorii Skovoroda, which was unveiled on September 28, 2012, but was destroyed on the night of July 6, 2022 (around 00:15) as a result of a missile strike by the Russian army from Belgorod. The building of the Kharkiv National Pedagogical University named after H. S. Skovoroda was also destroyed. Three floors of the central building collapsed. Additionally, a 40-year-old university guard died at the scene.[5]
