KFU improved its position on QS ranking: from #251-300 to #201-250.

Aydar Kalimullin, a director of the Institute of Psychology and Education, said that KFU especially improved on two indicators “Employer reputation” and “Hirsch index”. Furthermore, only three Russian universities are represented in the QS ranking.

The director also commented that Russia is becoming integrated into the international community. Around the world, students consider the ranking position of universities when they decide on higher education organisations. The higher-ranking position is associated with a highly-demanded and well-payed job.
