New Economic School

Founded in 1992, the New Economic School (NES) is a private, non-profit institution dedicated to excellence in economics and finance education and research. It was established to address the critical need for globally competitive economic training in Russia. The school's core strength lies in its resident faculty, many of whom hold PhDs from world-leading institutions such as Harvard, MIT, and Columbia. NES offers a range of undergraduate and graduate programs, including a joint Bachelor of Arts in Economics with the Higher School of Economics. The institution is highly regarded for its research output and its mission to benefit both the private and public sectors in Russia. In 2014, the school moved to a modern campus in Skolkovo, which features advanced academic and recreational facilities.
