The Faculty of Law is one of the most intensively developing faculties at Samara State University. Higher legal education has a long history in Samara (former Kuibyshev). Since 1930 the expert-lawyers were trained at Samara branches of Saratov Legal Institute and later Moscow Legal Institute. After the revival of Samara State University in 1969, the training of lawyers started at the Faculty of Humanities. In 1975 first specialists in Law graduated. The Faculty of Law was established at SSU in 1976.
