The Moscow School was conceived and began operating at the beginning of the 1990s. For the first time in many decades, it became possible to create something new within Russia's education system: something different in content, different in form, and methodology. During this period, the main aim of the School was to create a university in Russia that could compete with the best universities in the world. On the one hand, it was necessary to prevent the outflow of talented youth to the West. On the other hand, it was a chance to prove that there are no fundamental obstacles to applying Western models of higher education in Russia. By resolving those first two problems, the Moscow School set itself up as a working model of such a university and as an experimental platform for testing and implementing higher education innovation. The Moscow School of Social and Economic Sciences (MSSES) is an accredited, global educational institution. Since 1995, MSSES has worked actively to provide various higher education programs – namely master's degrees – and professional training. The main aim of the Moscow School's founders was to create a university in Russia that could compete with the best universities in the world. Six years before the Bologna Declaration signing, the Moscow School had already adopted the "Bologna structure." To ensure excellence, the Moscow School has selected the best Russian scholars and trained them in leading Western universities. It has also created an academic library that remains unique in terms of maintaining Western library standards in a Russian university. Furthermore, the Moscow School has created curricula and programs that have since been accredited by either British universities or the Russian Department of Education. Working in harmony with both the Russian and British education systems, the Moscow School offers programs in professional retraining and implements the most effective teaching and self-training methods. Each year the Moscow School's five faculties teach more than three hundred students. More than two thousand individuals have graduated over the past years and are successfully pursuing their professional careers. View full university
