Demography

The number of applications has nearly doubled: as of today, more than 2,600 applications have been submitted for undergraduate programmes, and more than 2,400 for master's programmes. This increased interest from international applicants in studying at HSE confirms the university's status as one of the most sought-after Russian universities abroad.

Khanty-Mansi Autonomous Okrug is a major oil-producing region in Russia with a favorable demographic situation and a range of measures in place to support families with children.
