One of the oldest educational units of the M.K. Ammosov North-Eastern Federal University, the Faculty of Biology and Geography was founded as part of the Yakut Pedagogical Institute in 1938 under the name of the Faculty of Natural Sciences. Since 1956, the faculty has been a part of the Yakutsk State University. In 1960, it was renamed the Faculty of Biology and Geography. Since 2010, it has been a structural unit of the M.K. Ammosov North-Eastern Federal University.

The Institute of Natural Sciences of NEFU is the legal successor of the Faculty of Biology and Geography of NEFU; it is the intellectual center of the system of higher and postgraduate professional education of the Russian Federation in the north-east of Russia, in the field of biology, chemistry, geography, ecology and pedagogy (in the above-mentioned areas of training). In order to develop its core work, the Institute carries out modern educational, research, socio-cultural and educational activities based on the creation of a unified innovative and information and communication environment of education, science, practice and production.

The faculty trains teachers of biology, chemistry and geography for secondary schools in Yakutia, ecologists and specialists for industrial and research institutions of the republic.
