History

Aleksandër Xhuvani University is to a certain extent a successor institution of the Elbasan Normal School [Shkolla Normale e Elbasanit] , a teacher training institution that was founded on December 1, 1909. The Shkolla Normale was a secondary school - the first to teach in the Albanian language. It also continues to exist as a secondary school, in the form of the Shkolla Normale Pedagogjike in Elbasan.

The first establishment of an institution of higher education in Elbasan occurred in 1971 with the founding of the Institut i Lartë Pedagogjik "Aleksandër Xhuvani" (Aleksandër Xhuvani Higher Educational Institute). This institution consisted of several teacher training departments (Albanian Language and Literature, Mathematics and Physics, History and Geography, Chemistry and Biology), as well as engineering and economics departments that were outposts of the University of Tirana. On November 12, 1991, the Institute became the Aleksandër Xhuvani University.
