the peculiarity of SEM educational programs is the combination of mathematical, analytical, economic and managerial training. The share of Hard disciplines is at least 40% of the curriculum, which allows our graduates to have a comparative advantage both for working in industry and building an academic career. 

  • Integration of business into the educational process

the relevance of education is achieved through active cooperation of programs with market-leading partners. Each educational program has an academic council, which helps to determine the content of educational programs, as well as takes part in the reading of practical courses. 

  • World-class science at the frontier with training courses

on the basis of SEM there are 5 scientific centers and laboratories, which hold leading positions in terms of publication level in Russia. Most of the scientific staff are current faculty members and reflect the latest research in the training courses.
