Consistently ranked as one of Russia's top universities, the Higher School of Economics is a Russian education leader and one of the preeminent economics and social sciences universities in eastern Europe and Eurasia. Having rapidly grown into a well-renowned research university over two decades, HSE sets itself apart with its international presence and cooperation.
Our faculty, researchers, and students represent over 50 countries and are dedicated to maintaining the highest academic standards. Our newly-adopted structural reforms support HSE's drive to internationalize and ground our faculty, researchers, and students.
Now a dynamic university with four campuses, HSE is a leader in combining Russian education traditions with the best international teaching and research practices. HSE offers outstanding educational programs from secondary school to doctoral studies, with top departments and research centers in some international fields.
Since 2013, HSE has been a member of the 5-100 Russian Academic Excellence Project, a highly selective government program aimed at boosting Russian universities' international competitiveness. The Higher School of Economics is a research university that carries out its mission through academic, programming, peer review, and sociocultural work based on international academic and organizational standards. We perceive ourselves as a part of the global academic community and believe that international partnership and engagement in global university cooperation are the key elements of our movement forward. As a Russian university, we work for the welfare of Russia and its citizens.
The basis of our work is theoretical and empirical research and the dissemination of knowledge. Without compromising the quality of research and not being limited to teaching fundamental disciplines, we seek to make a practical contribution to the building of a new Russia.
Our university is a community of faculty, staff members, graduate and undergraduate students distinguished by their deep commitment to supporting high academic standards in their work. We seek to guarantee that each member of our community has the most favorable conditions to develop.
