The list includes 750 universities from 20 countries. 169 Russia Universities were included in the rankings taking second place for the number of universities represented. Novosibirsk State University was 6th among Russian universities and maintained its position in the overall ranking at 19th place, the highest position among Russian regional universities.
Mikhail Fedoruk, NSU Rector and Academician of the Russian Academy of Sciences, explained,
Novosibirsk State University maintains top positions in this ranking thanks to our high quality of education and research activities. An increase in the 'Share of foreign students' indicator also had a positive impact this year. Currently, 1700 foreign students from 60 countries are studying here. In recent years, we have been developing cooperation with China and West African countries and improved on the 'Number of student winners in international Olympiads' indicator. For the second year, NSU ranked 23rd in the world in the "Three University Missions" indicator and in the top 5 among Russian universities.
