Before the October Revolution, less than 1% of the Turkmen population was literate. By 1940, the literacy rate was 80%.
In 1940, there were 1,347 schools in Turkmenistan, most of which were in rural areas. In addition, there were four universities, 38 technical colleges, and 18 scientific research institutes.[1]
