History
Russian-Armenian University was established following the inter-state agreement between Armenia and Russian Federation in 1997.
In 1999, Academician Levon Mkrtchyan, Doctor of Philology, became university's first Rector. The current rector is Armen Darbinyan.
The first students were enrolled in February 1999 in Law, Public and Municipal Administration and Journalism. Since then, the university has been constantly growing and encompassing new areas of education and research.
Starting from 2002, scientific centers, institutions and problem research groups have been developing within the university. In the same year RAU opened a post-graduate course.
In 2004 the reconstruction of the main building was finished, while in 2009 RAU opened its own Sports Complex.
On October 15, 2004, the Park of Gratitude was opened on the university premises as a symbol of the Russian-Armenian friendship. This very day has become the day of RAU.
On April 29, 2005 RAU was accredited by the Ministry of Education and Science of the Russian Federation.[3]
