Omsk State Agrarian University (Omsk SAU, Russian: Омский государственный аграрный университет имени П.А. Столыпина) is a public agricultural higher education institution located in the city of Omsk (Russia). The university has a large territory (1133 hectares), and a green campus space located within the city. Omsk SAU consists of the main university located in Omsk, its branch in the city of Tara, and the University College of Agribusiness. The history of Omsk SAU dates back to February 24, 1918, when Omsk Agricultural Institute was founded. It became the first higher education institution in Omsk and the first agricultural one east of the Ural Mountains. The initial 1918 enrollment consisted of only 200 students studying at the agronomy department. In 1919, it was planned to merge Omsk Agricultural Institute with recently created Omsk Polytechnic Institute. If it happened, the agricultural institution would transform into a faculty. Nevertheless, its independence was preserved. In 1922, it was renamed as Siberian Agricultural Academy, and in 1925 in became Siberian Institute of Agriculture and Forestry. In 1930, four associated institutes were organized on its basis, and three years later they were again merged into a single institution. Omsk SAU changed its name and structure several times more, until in 2011 the current name was approved to honor the Prime Minister of the Russian Empire Pyotr Arkadyevich Stolypin. During the Great Patriotic War, university buildings housed the workshops of the plant number 357 "Progress" that was evacuated from sieged Leningrad. Educational process continued in the converted rooms. After the war, the university actively developed its infrastructure. Several dormitories and sports grounds were constructed, roads on the campus were asphalted, a canteen, a bathhouse, a student club were built, etc.
