It was founded on June 1, 1946 as the Central Party School of the Communist Party of North Korea based in Pyongyang, on the basis of the existing since November 1945 Kim Il-sung High School, who prepares political and educational officers and translators of the Russian language. On the sixtieth birthday of Kim Il-sun, in April 1972, his name was given to the university - the Kim Il-sung Higher Party School. A year later, in 1973, the university was integrated with the Marxist–Leninist School. Since 1978, it has been operating on the rights of the central educational institution.[2][3]

The lecturers are recruited from the management staff of the Central Committee, the Academy of Sciences and the Kim Il-sung University.
