Founded in 1992, the HSE Faculty of Economics is the university’s oldest faculty. In the years since it was founded, it has gained a reputation as Russia’s leader in terms of higher economic education.
A fundamental education in modern economic theory and mathematics is combined with the study of applied disciplines, such as taxation, budget policies and processes, financial management and other related fields.

About the Faculty
Founded in 1992, the Faculty of Economic Sciences is HSE’s largest and oldest research entity. The Faculty brings together the organizational and financial capabilities of HSE’s front-running teaching and research centres, the intellectual capital and professionalism of the university’s leaders, and the university’s longstanding connections with renowned international universities, research institutes and multinational companies.
The Faculty’s diverse educational programmes provide students with the theoretical and practical fundamentals of economics and enable them to pursue an individualized educational trajectory tailored to their preferences, goals, and interests.
The Faculty of Economic Sciences, in cooperation with partner universities, aims to prepare students for a modern competitive professional environment and provide opportunities for intercultural interactions and experiential learning. The faculty is interested in various forms and opportunities for students to study abroad, as well as for international students to attend the courses and programs of the faculty.
HSE students are invited to study for a semester or participate in short programs abroad organized by the top universities. These activities are supported by the Research and Education committees funding, as well as a competitive scholarship named after one of the HSE founders, professor Lyubimov.
In addition to course work, students can engage in cutting-edge research carried out by the Faculty’s academics at its laboratories and at other HSE research institutes and international laboratories. From the outset, students are directly involved in faculty research activities.
Prominent employers, including both Russian and multinational companies, are integrated directly into the Faculty of Economic Science’s activities. Many of these companies have constant representation within the Faculty. Specialists and practitioners representing leading employers play major role in the Faculty’s teaching activities.
After graduating from the Faculty’s undergraduate programmes, more than half our alumni continue their education at the graduate level, and many work and study simultaneously. 10% of our graduates are admitted to graduate programmes abroad. We have a graduation rate of 77% from bachelor's programmes, and 91% of graduate students are awarded an MSc. Only 5% of Faculty graduates report not working or studying during their first year after graduation from an undergraduate programme, while about 88% of Master’s programme graduates find employment or opt to continue to study in the first year following their graduation.
The Faculty of Economic sciences consists of the following four departments and one school:
- Department of Theoretical Economics
- Department of Applied Economics
- School of Finance
- Department of Mathematics
- Department of Statistics and Data Analysis
In addition, the Faculty is a partner institution of the International College of Economics and Finance, which was established in 1997 in cooperation with the London School of Economics. It offers BSc and MSc programmes, as well as a wide range of courses and programmes in English for international students. For more details, please see the ICEF website.
