How do you turn your education into a launchpad for success? Where can you earn more than just a degree – but also gain access to cutting-edge technology, top-tier business networks, and global opportunities? Plekhanov Russian University of Economics (PRUE) has the answers – and it is ready to show you what your tomorrow could look like.
1. A Tech Campus Where Innovation Takes Shape
The new A.S. Vishnyakov Centre for Digital and Information Technologies is far more than a sleek modern building. It is a collaborative hub where students work side‑by‑side with industry giants including VK, Sber, Ozon, Gazprombank, Rostelecom, and the Institute for System Programming of the Russian Academy of Sciences. Here, students are already developing projects that will define the economy of the future – long before graduation.
2. 500+ Industry Partners: Your Passport to a World of Opportunity
Plekhanov is a bridge between the classroom and the real economy. From your very first year, you are immersed in the ecosystem of Russia's leading companies. Internships at top corporations and job offers often come before your final diploma defence. Employers do not have to search for you – you are already part of their world.
3. A Degree That Opens Doors
Plekhanov University is consistently ranked among Russia's top 5 universities by Forbes Education, and holds 4th place in the RAEX ranking for graduate employability. With this kind of credential, your CV will always command attention.
4. Startup as Your Thesis: Build Your Own Business Instead of Just Theory
The university's entrepreneurial ethos is more than just a slogan. The "Startup as a Diploma" programme allows you to defend not a traditional paper, but a real business project with genuine investment potential. Here, you learn not only to think like a leader – but to act like an entrepreneur.
5. A Campus in the Heart of the Capital: Study with Comfort and Prestige
Nine buildings within easy walking distance of Serpukhovskaya and Dobryninskaya metro stations. Historic landmark buildings alongside ultra‑modern spaces. A digital library, a 25‑metre swimming pool, fitness centres, and a concert hall – everything you need for a rich and productive student life.
Your Chance to Go Global
Plekhanov University – the first state‑run university in Russia – has opened its own branch in the United Arab Emirates. This means you can earn an internationally recognised education and build a career without borders.
