Annotation: The events of the East Front of World War II had an impact on the activities of the higher educational institutions in the City of Ivanovo and Ivanovo Region. There had been significant changes in the organisation of the educational process, the content of the curricula, the academic performance, the number of the teachers and the students, and the living conditions. The Soviet authorities took a number of the organisational measures to ensure the work of higher education institutions in the wartime conditions. This article examines the activities of one of the leading higher education institutions in Ivanovo Region – Ivanovo State Pedagogic Institute - in 1941-1945. Special attention is paid to the organisation of the educational process at the faculties, the changes in the educational programmes, the academic performance, the number of the teachers and the students, the working and leisure conditions. In addition, the article examines the administrative actions of the regional leadership to provide the pedagogic institute with fuel and its teachers and students, with food; we reflect the effectiveness of the measures taken. The result of this study was the conclusion about the essence of the "survival" of the institute in a military environment, the adaptation of the educational process to the emerging problems, the contribution of teachers and students to the country's defence and the work of the rear. The conditions in which the intitute carried out its activities allow us to conclude that although it was not the largest and not the greatest prestigious, the establishment had managed to "survive" in those difficult years.
