UNN improves its position in the international university ranking

According to the data of the international Round University Ranking (RUR) just published, Lobachevsky University stands 654th in the global ranking rising by 8 positions compared to the previous year. UNN holds the 21st place among all Russian universities.

Lobachevsky University's performance according to the “Teaching” criterion improved by 31 points year-on-year, which allowed it to take 348th position in the ranking. UNN continues to develop the potential to further strengthen its place in the global community of universities. Positive dynamics and growth can also be observed in such areas of UNN's activities as “International Diversity” and “Financial Sustainability” among Russian universities.

RUR is an international university ranking published annually by the British analytical company Round University Ranking. The study evaluates 1,100 leading universities from 82 countries on four groups of criteria: teaching (the weight of the criteria is 40%), research (40%), international diversity (10%) and financial sustainability (10%). In the Russian educational space, the RUR Ranking is of particular interest because it allows comparing domestic educational institutions with their foreign counterparts and identifying the strengths of Russian universities.
