Lobachevsky University was included in the top 10 of the Superjob ranking in terms of salaries for 2017-2022 graduates employed in the field of economics and finance.  It was also the only Nizhny Novgorod university represented in these rankings. UNN ranked ninth, sharing this place with Kazan Federal University.

Average salaries of Lobachevsky University graduates in the fields of economics and finance increased by three thousand roubles over the year and now amount to an average of 100 thousand roubles per month. The proportion of those who remain to work in the city after their studies is 73%, and the average score on the Unified State Exam in 2022 among applicants was 85.2 points at the time of admission. The top 10 rankings also include the leading universities in Moscow and St. Petersburg.

"We are pleased and honoured that Lobachevsky University is one of the leaders and stands among the best Moscow and St. Petersburg universities. The high salaries of our economics graduates represent employers' appreciation of our work and the level of our education. This assessment is one of the most important ones. UNN has strong traditions of education in economics, with more than 60 years of experience. Our Institute of Economics and Entrepreneurship combines the best practices of the economics school with the modern approaches that our teachers use to prepare students, attracting leading practitioners from business and government. This has a synergetic effect, and our graduates who come to work for companies have a better starting position and are better equipped to deal with practical challenges. Undoubtedly, employers see and appreciate it," said Oleg Trofimov, Acting Rector of Lobachevsky University.
