The Department of World History was formed in Arkhangelsk in 1938 at the Arkhangelsk Pedagogical Institute. The head of the department was Aleksandr Andreevich Sokolov, a medieval historian who graduated from the Leningrad Institute of Red Professors in 1935. Among the first teachers of the department were A.V. Smirnov, A.V. Selezneva, M.I. Freeman. At the beginning of World War II, most of the teachers went to the front, and in 1943 the departments were united with Department of the History of the USSR Peoples. In 1946, the department was revived again, but with a new staff. This period of the department's life lasted until 1956, when the merger took place again. The modern stage of the Department of World History begins in 1985 when Professor Andrei Viktorovich Repnevsky headed it and gathered a new team with which the current teaching staff has an inextricable connection. Since 2011 Department of World History became a part of the Northern (Arctic) Federal University named after M. V. Lomonosov.
