The Faculty of Education in Sohag was established in November 1971 as a branch of the Faculty of Education in Assiut. Initially, students were admitted through transfers from equivalent faculties of education, primarily students from Sohag Governorate who wished to join the faculty. Starting from the academic year 1972-1973, the faculty became independent and began admitting students through the national admission system.

The faculty initially started with two specializations: Mathematics and Physics-Chemistry in the academic year 1971/1972. A History specialization was introduced in the academic year 1973/1974, and in 1977/1978.
