The university was established in 1979 when the Kirgiz SSR was still a part of the Soviet Union.[2][3] On 17 June 1992 it was transformed into the State Institute of Languages and Humanities. Following an announcement made by the newly formed Kyrgyz government, the university was re-established in 1994.[4]
The university offers both undergraduate and postgraduate courses.[5]
