Rating of faculties of Moscow universities in eight professional areas according to hh.ru 2018–2019

The hh.ru ranking does not take into account scientific degrees and research work in universities. As a basis, we took the demand for graduates in the labor market - what worries applicants in the first place.

These graduates receive more interviews, are offered higher salaries, and are more likely to look for jobs in their specialty than their competitors.

Can't find a university or faculty?

This is an objective rating based on the realities of the labor market, and there are limitations in its methodology. The absence of a university or faculty in the list is due to the low activity of its graduates or incomplete information in their resumes. In connection with the reform of the education system, a number of universities were reorganized and merged with leading universities. A number of faculties were also abolished or reorganized in accordance with market requirements.

hh.ru Faculty Ranking Methodology 2018–2019

Unique features of the hh.ru rating that distinguish it from other ratings:

• used data on the demand for graduates of 2017-2018 from faculties / departments of Moscow universities who posted their resumes on the hh.ru website;
• the real demand for graduates was assessed by analyzing the actions of applicants / graduates (profile placement) and employers (invitations for interviews, the salary to which graduates are invited, and comparison with the general market salary) on the hh.ru website;
• The weight parameters for constructing the rating were obtained based on an online survey conducted in May 2016 among 159 employers/HR managers currently hiring young professionals.

Parameters used in hh.ru rating calculation:

Region of the analyzed university: Moscow.

• p i - invitations to an interview for graduates of a particular faculty who have posted resumes only in the profile area.
• p f - the total number of invitations for an interview of all graduates of a particular faculty.
• s m is the average salary to which graduates of a particular faculty are invited.
• s bdzp - the average salary for beginners in the field, according to the Salary Data Bank hh.ru.
• r i - the number of resumes of graduates of the desired faculty, posted in the profile area, as well as in the profile specialization in the professional area "Start of a career, students" *.
• r f - the total number of resumes of graduates of the desired faculty.
• w j - weight for each rating criterion, determined by the degree of importance for the employer when hiring young professionals based on an online survey.

* For example, the profile of posting resumes for lawyers is the number of resumes of graduates of law faculties posted in the professional areas "Lawyers" and "Start of a career, students" (specialization "Lawyers").

Three criteria used in the hh.ru ranking:

1. Demand for graduates of a particular faculty: the ratio of invitations to interviews of graduates who posted resumes in the profile field to invitations to graduates of this faculty as a whole - ( p i p f).
2. Salary demand for graduates from employers: an indicator of the ratio of the average salary to which young specialists are invited to the average salary according to the Salary Data Bank hh.ru - ( s m s bdzp).
3. Profile job search by graduates or “correspondence of the labor market and the education system”: the share of resumes of graduates of a particular faculty posted in the profile area among all graduates of a particular faculty - ( r i r f).

X = w 1 × p i p f+ w 2 × r i r f+ w 3 × s m s bdzp

Scale description:

1. Salary demand for graduates on the part of employers was rated by employers as the highest (w 3 ). This criterion of importance in hiring young graduates received an average score of 3.64 out of 5 possible.
2. The profile job search by graduates or “correspondence of the labor market and the education system” (w 2 ) as a criterion for hiring young graduates received a score of 3.18 points out of 5 possible.
3. Applicant activity of the candidate (w 1 ) as a criterion for hiring young graduates received a score of 2.86 points out of 5 possible.

Restrictions, or why some universities or faculties are not in the ranking:

1. The purpose of the rating is to assess the demand for graduates by employers by measuring their mutual activity in the labor market. We deliberately did not conduct surveys of graduates and did not measure the criteria that affect the assessment of the quality of the education system of a particular faculty, for example: publications in journals, teaching staff, the number of graduates of candidates and doctors of science, etc.
2. Time period analyzed: Applicants from Moscow universities in 2017-2018 release.
3. The object of analysis is the resumes of graduates posted only on the website hh.ru.
4. The minimum number of resumes for graduates of a particular faculty of the university who posted their resumes on hh.ru is 30 pieces.

There are a huge number of economic universities in Russia. Each of them has its own advantages and disadvantages, which can only be assessed by experts on this issue. Thus, the Finance magazine compiled its own rating of financial institutions of higher education, objectively assessing the level of training of the teaching staff, the level of knowledge of students, the quality of teaching and many other factors that are essential in obtaining an education.

Students of the winner of the rating have the opportunity to receive several economic specialties. The institute has a department of anti-crisis management, accounting, public administration, management, economics, law, finance and credit, taxes and taxation, as well as a department of world economy. The average cost of education in this university is 200-249 thousand rubles.

In second place is Moscow State University. M.V. Lomonosov. This university was founded several centuries ago - in 1755. They study here in various areas, including economic ones, such as anti-crisis management, national economy.

In the top five was also a university located in the northern capital of Russia - St. Petersburg State University of Economics and Finance, founded in 1930. He took an honorable third place. Students are invited to the faculties: “accounting, analysis and audit”, “commerce”, “marketing”, “mathematical methods in economics”, “management”, “national economy”, etc. The average tuition fee is from 85 thousand rubles.

Students are offered to study: accounting, commerce, marketing, mathematical methods in economics, management, world economy, taxes and taxation, finance and credit, etc.

St. Petersburg State University. This university is not economically oriented, but it is considered one of the best, which provides education in the field of economics. Accounting, marketing, mathematics, management, finance and credit are not all the specialties that can be acquired here. At the same time, you need to pay from 52 to 330 thousand rubles, depending on what profession the future student chooses for himself.

Here, an excellent teaching staff will offer their knowledge to students in the following areas: state and municipal administration, commerce, marketing, management, global, national economy, economics and enterprise management, as well as other non-financial areas.

So, for example, in Yekaterinburg the best universities are:

Ural Federal University Yeltsin, the first President of Russia. Payment is in the range of 43-85 thousand rubles, which is much cheaper than in the capital. And they train here in the following areas: anti-crisis management, accounting, analysis and audit, state and municipal administration, commerce, management and marketing, global economy, etc.

Solovyov, Deputy General Director of OOO Gazprom transgaz Yekaterinburg - V.A. Semenov, General Director of CJSC NPO Spetsneftegaz - V.A. Kanaikin and many others.

Comparing the most popular and rated universities in Russia, we can say that the most prestigious are the universities of Moscow, but the quality of education in universities in other cities is often no worse, and the pay is much less.

SSUE held its first enrollment of students in the 30s of the last century - these were times that became significant for the economy of the Soviet Union. The country then lived under the auspices of the "five-year plans", and during this period many enterprises were created, most of which fell on the modern territory of the Samara region. It was the real flourishing of the region's economy, and in many respects this is the merit of SSEU graduates. The university confidently holds its position even today, graduating the best personnel of enterprises and companies of the Volga region - the number of graduates of SSEU by that moment was more than 90 thousand.
