10:43, July 21, 2023

There are 24 Russian universities on the list

The Ural Federal University took the seventh place in the first rating of Russian financial and economic universities in terms of the demand for graduates in the financial industry. The list included 24 Russian universities, including 10 Moscow and 14 regional ones.

The authors of the rating took into account the preferences of financial organizations regarding the education of a candidate for a vacant position, as well as the real successes of university graduates. Thus, the graduates of the UrFU Graduate School of Economics and Management occupy managerial positions in large companies and are in demand on the labor market. An important factor in assessing the demand for financial and economic universities is the willingness of financial organizations to cooperate with them. The forms of cooperation can be various - from internship programs to financing of educational programs.

"Throughout its history, GSEM UrFU has worked systematically to build long-term cooperation with corporate partners. This applies not only to the practical training and employment of our students and graduates. It is also about supporting the educational process. Experts from the business world give individual lectures or entire courses and even supervise educational programs. The Institute has 16 Bachelor's and Specialist's programs and 25 Master's programs in the 2023 enrollment, all of which are strengthened by corporate partners," said Dmitry Tolmachev, Director of the UrFU Graduate School of Economics and Management.
