History

The Buryat State Agricultural Academy was created in accordance with the Resolution of the Board of the People's Commissariat of Agriculture of the USSR of August 13, 1931 No. 38 as the Buryat-Mongolian Agropedagogical Institute.[2] In 1935, the Agropedagogical Institute became known as the Buryat-Mongolian State Veterinary Institute. From December 1941 to 1944, the Institute was closed as many professors and students went to fight in World War II.

In 1961, the Buryat-Mongolian State Veterinary Institute was renamed the Buryat Agricultural Institute.[3] From 1957 to 1962, the main building of the Institute was built (its chief project architect being Giprovuz S. Mikhailov, a project of his since 1955).[4]

In April 1995, after going through a state certification, the Buryat Agricultural Institute was renamed the Buryat State Agricultural Academy, a name it has held (colloquially) since then. On March 4, 1998, per Decree of the Government of the Republic of Buryatia No. 79, the Buryat State Agricultural Academy was named after Vasily Rodionovich Filippov, former rector of the academy.[5]

By order of the Ministry of Agriculture of the Russian Federation dated May 23, 2011 No. 132 "On renaming FSEI HPE and their branches", the academy was renamed into the Federal State Budgetary Educational Institution of Higher Professional Education “Buryat State Agricultural Academy named after V. R. Filippov”.[6]
