The Department of Russian Language is the same age as the Agrarian University. In 1931, a linguistics room was opened at the branch of the Central Asian Fruit and Vegetable Institute, which in 1940 was transformed into the Department of Languages. The head of this department was A.E. Madzhi.

In 2001, the Department of Russian Language was separated from the Department of Languages ​​into an independent department, and attached to the faculty for work with foreign students, the head of the department was associate professor Izatov K. From 2014 to 2022, the head of the department was Khalikova M.N. Urunbaeva N. was appointed аs an acting head of the department from 2023 to 2023. Also, in 2024 Tuygunov N.Kh. was temporarily appointed acting Head of the department. Starting from September 2024, Mirzoeva Sokina Amirulloevna is appointed to this position. Currently, since 2024, the Russian language department is headed by PhD Mirzoeva S.A. The department has good pedagogical potential, experienced teachers work here, such as: Izatov K.I., Khalikova M.N., Abdulkhaeva M.Kh., Nurova Sh.A., Saidov S.B., Urunbaeva N.U., Ubaidullaeva A., Melibayeva Z., who over many years have extensive experience in teaching methods, both to students of their native university and to foreign students, as well as young teachers: Sadykova G.A., Nasriddinov F., Sharipova Z.

The teachers of the department are constantly working to ensure that students studying Russian acquire deep knowledge, oral and written speech skills, communication skills, the ability to use scientific literature and the Internet, which is necessary for the further development of personal growth of a highly qualified specialist. The teachers not only conduct practical classes, but also from the first days of training involve students in active participation in Olympiads (intra-university, city); reading thematic conferences, seminars, work in a Russian language club, where students can communicate and acquire deeper knowledge. At our university, first-year students, masters and postgraduate students study Russian. In addition to pedagogical activities, the teachers of the department are engaged in methodological and scientific work. Currently, the teachers are conducting research on the scientific topic of the department: "Syntactic, grammatical and lexical features of parts of speech in the Russian and Tajik languages", participate in scientific and methodological conferences of the university and other universities. Over the past 2-3 years, teachers have developed and published: 2 teaching aids for practical classes in Russian, 4 methodological guidelines, more than 30 scientific and methodological articles.

Currently, the Russian language is very popular. The goal of the university is to prepare not only a highly qualified specialist, but also a harmoniously developed personality who can freely navigate the information space and independently solve problems that meet the requirements of the modern labor market, which is impossible without knowledge of the Russian language. Therefore, classes are held at a high methodological level, using technical teaching aids (audio and video lessons, pictures, excursions, etc.), as well as presentation classes, in order to maximize the knowledge of the Russian language, and to conduct classes in an entertaining and interesting way.

Thanks to the support of the TAU management, a language lab with modern equipment operates at the Russian language department. Also, the teachers of the department at the university conduct short-term Russian language courses and additional classes for everyone.

The Russian language department closely cooperates with Russian educational organizations (ROSSOVIET), Russian centers of universities in the capital. Teachers are happy to participate in seminars and joint events, where they have the opportunity to exchange experiences and methodological skills. The department's teachers actively participate in all city and university events.
