Saint Vladimir Imperial University is a former University that operated in Kiev, Russian Empire. It was founded on November 8 (20), 1833 by decree of Emperor Nicholas I. The Emperor approved the temporary Charter and staffing of the University. The basis for the Imperial decree was the presentation of the Minister of public education S. S. Uvarov on the Foundation of the Imperial University of St. Petersburg. Vladimir on the basis of closed after the Polish uprising of 1830-1831 Vilna University and Kremenets Lyceum, moved to Kiev. St. John's University Vladimir was the second University on the territory of little Russia after Kharkiv University, opened in 1804 (and the sixth University of the Russian Empire). On July 15 (27), 1834, the day of the memory of the Holy Prince Vladimir equal to the apostles, the University was officially opened.on October 18 (30), 1834, Professor Mikhail Maksimovich was appointed as the first rector of the University by order of Emperor Nicholas I. In the first academic year (1834-1835), the University had only one faculty of philosophy with two departments: history and Philology and physics and mathematics. 62 students were enrolled in the first year and classes began at the University on August 28, 1834. The rite of ”initiation into students”, unlike other Russian universities, was conducted according to the old knightly rules and was led by field Marshal, suppressor of the Polish uprising, Prince F. V. Osten–sacken. According to the organizers, this dedication looked like a symbolic transfer of continuity between the old and new generations. Under the guidance of Professor of architecture V. I. Beretti, a huge University building was built in the style of Russian classicism (1838-1842) on the deserted outskirts of ancient Kiev. The main building of the University is a closed building (145 m long facade) with a courtyard and bears the colors of the award ribbon of the order of St. Vladimir-red and black (red walls, black bases and capitals of columns). The motto of the same order ”Utilitas, Honor et Gloria” (”Benefit, honor and glory” in Latin) also became the motto of the University. In 1842. the University moved to a new building, where it was located until 1917. The University was initially established as a part of 2 faculties: philosophy (later divided into history and Philology and physics and mathematics) and law. In the first year, only the faculty of philosophy was opened. The faculty was initially mixed: Polish professors were transferred from Kremenets, and Russian and German professors were added to them. In 1838, the Polish movement led to the temporary closure of the University and the dismissal or transfer of professors and students of Polish origin. The number of listeners has been greatly reduced; half of the departments were emptied and were replaced by Russians or Germans. In 1841, instead of the abolished Vilna medical and surgical Academy, a medical faculty was opened at Kiev University. To replace the empty departments, young people were sent abroad and teachers from the pedagogical Institute and other universities were invited. A new life began at the University, but abruptly ended under the influence of the harsh measures of 1848. The departments were empty again, and the number of students was limited. According to the Supreme decree of January 26, 1850, the University was ordered to accept only 300 ”self-employed”, that is, students who studied at their own expense (an exception was made only for the Medical faculty). At the same time, preference was given to those candidates who, according to p. 3. volume III of the civil service Regulations were entitled to join the civil service. But even in the difficult time of 1848-56, the University was enriched with new institutions: an anatomical theater and a meteorological Observatory were built, and commissions began to work to describe the provinces of the Central educational district and to analyze ancient acts. Since the end of the 50s, the revival of Kiev University has also begun. The growth process was particularly affected by the introduction of the Charter of 1863. The previous era left the University in decline, so there were only 3 professors in the faculty of law, and the case was not much better in other faculties. In the report for 1862-1863, complaints are heard that many departments remain unfilled; professors, for lack of material resources, have to turn to outside classes; the unpreparedness of students forces them to turn lectures into gymnasium lessons, textbooks are scarce, and so on.
