The foreign languages department was formed in 1988 within the philological faculty. The first 40 students began work on 1st September; in the same year the faculty of German languages was also created. The first head of the department and dean of the philological faculty was Candidate of philological science and senior lecturer A.Y.Minor.

At the beginning of the 1991-92 academic year the faculty was divided into the faculty of English language and the methodology of English language learning (the head of the department was V.N.Abramenko), the faculty of German language and methodology of German language learning (the head of the department was candidate of philological science and senior lecturer R.Y.Vanchitskiy). 1993 saw the first graduation from the German and English departments.
