==History== {{unreferenced section|date=February 2015}}
===Russian Empire=== On {{OldStyleDate|29 January|1805|17 January}}, the Decree on the Opening of the [[Imperial Kharkov University|Imperial University in Kharkov]] came into force. The university became the second university in the south of the [[Russian Empire]]. It was founded on the initiative of the local community with [[Vasily Karazin]] at the fore, whose idea was supported by the nobility and the local authorities. Count Seweryn Potocki was appointed the first supervisor of the university, the first [[rector (academia)|rector]] being the [[philology|philologist]] and philosopher {{ill|Ivan Rizhsky|uk|Рижський Іван Степанович}}.
In 1811, the Philotechnical Society was founded, while the Mathematical Society of Kharkov, the Historical and Philological Society of Kharkiv, the Naturalists Society, Societies of Physics, Chemistry, Law, among others, were established in the second half of the 19th century. The first periodicals in [[Sloboda Ukraine|Slobozhanshchyna]] appear in the university around this time, including ''Kharkovski Ezhenedelnik'' (1812), ''Ukrainski Vestnik'' (1816–1819), ''Ukrainski Zhurnal'' (1824–1825), etc.
In 1839, a veterinary school, which in 1851 became an independent institute, was established at the university. By this time, the campus included laboratories, clinics, an astronomical observatory, a botanical garden and a library.
Previously, the university was autonomous with rectors being elected. However, from 1820 to 1850, all its activity was strictly controlled. Rectors were appointed by the Minister of Education, while scientific publications, and academic processes were censored.
In 1863, under a new Statute,{{which|date=February 2015}} the university became partly autonomous.
The university has been publishing ''Scientific Notes'' since 1874.
From the 19th century up to the early 20th century, the University of Kharkiv had four schools: School of Physics and Mathematics, School of History and Philology, School of Medicine, School of Law.
The university exerted great influence on school-life in Slobozhanshchyna in the first period of its existence, largely from 1805 to 1835.{{citation needed|date=February 2020}}
===Ukrainian SSR=== From 1917 to 1920, there was a struggle between advocates of the Ukrainian statehood and Russian course. Some of the professors who opposed new political realities left. Most of the Ukrainian professors remained in Kharkiv. They continued working in the institutions founded by the Soviet government: the Academy of Theoretical Knowledge (1920–1921), Kharkiv Institute of Public Education (KhIPE, 1921–1930), Kharkiv Institute of National Economy, Institute of Physics and Chemistry, and Institute of Law. Kharkiv State University, consisting of seven schools — School of Physics and Mathematics, School of Chemistry, School of Biology, School of Geology and Geography, School of Literature and Linguistics (with Department of Philosophy), and School of Economy (with Department of Economic Geography) — was restored on their basis in 1932–1933.
In 1921, Kharkiv Medical Institute was founded based on the School of Medicine of the University of Kharkiv.{{citation needed|date=February 2020}}
In 1936, the university was named after the late Russian writer [[Maxim Gorky]] (though he was not related to the university during his life). During the [[Eastern Front (World War II)|German-Soviet war]], it was evacuated to the city of Kizilord in [[Kazakhstan]], where it merged with the [[Taras Shevchenko National University of Kyiv|Kyiv University]] to form the United Ukrainian State University.<ref>{{cite web |title=KNU-history - Open University of Taras Shevchenko National University of Kyiv |url=https://knu.edu.eu/knu-history |website=knu.edu.eu |access-date=17 May 2022}}</ref> In 1943/44, the university returned to Kharkiv (the first academic year after the liberation of the city on 1 November 1943). In 1951, 800 university students suffered from persecution after they refused to pass exams in [[Russian language|Russian]]. Court trials were held behind closed doors.{{citation needed|date=February 2020}}
In 1977, the following schools were operating in the university: School of Mechanics and Mathematics, School of Physics, School of Geology and Geography, School of Economy, School of History, School of Philology, School of Foreign Languages, School of General Sciences, School of Correspondence Learning, and Night School.{{citation needed|date=February 2020}}
===Independent Ukraine=== [[File:Каразин, Василий Назарович.jpg|left|thumb|153x153px|[[Vasily Karazin]]]] On 11 October 1999, [[Leonid Kuchma]], the [[President of Ukraine]] issued a decree, in which he, "taking into consideration considerable contribution that Kharkiv State University made to training qualified specialists and to development of science" granted the status of a national university and named it after its founder, [[Vasyl Karazin]].{{citation needed|date=February 2020}}
In 2004, the university was given a twin building (the former Govorov Academy), opposite Svobody Square.{{citation needed|date=February 2020}}
Russian shelling hit the building of the Faculty of Economics<ref>{{Cite web |last=Sistek |first=Scott |date=2022-03-25 |title=Massive icicles hang from destroyed Ukrainian school amid nearly week-long freeze |url=https://www.foxweather.com/weather-news/massive-icicles-hang-from-destroyed-ukrainian-school-amid-nearly-week-long-freeze |access-date=2022-04-18 |website=FOX Weather |language=en-US}}</ref> which was subsequently destroyed by further Russian shelling.<ref>{{Cite news |last=McCann |first=Allison |last2=Gamio |first2=Lazaro |last3=Lu |first3=Denise |last4=Robles |first4=Pablo |date=2022-03-17 |title=Russia Is Destroying Kharkiv |language=en-US |work=The New York Times |url=https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2022/03/17/world/europe/russia-destroying-kharkiv.html |access-date=2022-04-18 |issn=0362-4331}}</ref> On 5 March the university sports complex was partially destroyed. On 11 March — the building of the Faculty of Physics and Technology was partially destroyed and on 18 March — the Institute of Public Administration was partially ruined. As of 22 March 2022, according to the university's press service, the university had no intact buildings left.
==Cultural activities== The university's [[printing press]], which was established simultaneously with the institution's foundation in 1804, played a big role in the development of [[Ukrainian literature]], serving as the centre of Kharkiv [[Romanticism|Romantic]] school. It produced many notable publications, including [[Izmail Sreznevsky]]'s ''Zaporozhian Antiquities'' (1833-1838), [[Ivan Kotliarevsky]]'s ''[[Natalka Poltavka]]'' (1838), ''The Muscovite Sorcerer'' (1841) and ''[[Eneida]]'' (1842), as well as works by [[Hryhorii Kvitka-Osnovianenko|Hryhoriy Kvitka-Osnovianenko]], [[Petro Hulak-Artmovsky]] and other authors.<ref>{{Cite web|title=Боротьба за книговидання в ранньомодерній Україні: конкуренція, прибутки, читачі, заборони|date=2026-01-26|url=https://tyzhden.ua/borotba-za-knyhovydannia-v-rannomodernij-ukraini-konkurentsiia-prybutky-chytachi-zaborony/|access-date=2026-01-27}}</ref>
