History

In 1955, the Government of the USSR in Leningrad decided to advance studies of senior commanding staff for Civil Aviation with supervision of the Civil Aviation Administration. This led to the birth of the "High School of Civil Aviation".

In 1971, the High school of Civil Aviation was awarded the highest government award that time—the "Order of Lenin". Thereafter the institute was reorganized as the "Academy of Civil Aviation" and it was moved to a new campus in Aviagorodok (Aviation town), a suburb of Leningrad next to present-day Pulkovo Airport.

In 2004, the Academy of Civil Aviation passed the state accreditation and has received a new status - Saint-Petersburg State University of Civil Aviation (Order of the Ministry of Education and Science on 01. December 2004, No. 461).
