In accordance with Federal Law No. 273-FZ dated December 29, 2012 ‘On Education in the Russian Federation’ and the ‘Regulations on State Accreditation of Educational Activities’ enacted by Decree No. 797 of the Government of the Russian Federation dated May 19, 2023, degree programmes offered by a university are subject to state accreditation.

During state accreditation, the accreditation body verifies that the quality of education provided by an educational institution offering relevant programmes complies with the established accreditation criteria. Accreditation criteria encompass a set of required standards reflecting the quality of education.

Degree programmes falling within state-accredited broad groups of professions, concentrations/specialisations, and fields of study are considered to have state accreditation.

State accreditation is awarded following an accreditation review, which aims to verify the compliance of the quality of education provided by an educational institution with established accreditation criteria.

According to Part 16 of Article 136 of Federal Law No. 170-FZ ‘On Amendments to Certain Legislative Acts of the Russian Federation in Connection with the Adoption of the Federal Law “On State Control (Supervision) and Municipal Control in the Russian Federation”’, dated June 11, 2021, and Rosobrnadzor Directive No. 547 ‘On the Entry of Details Concerning Indefinite Validity of State Accreditation Certificates into the Register of Organisations Conducting Educational Activities under State-Accredited Educational Programmes’, degree programmes offered at a corresponding level of education or falling within a broader group of professions, concentrations/specialisations, and fields of study that have a valid state accreditation certificate as of March 1, 2022, are considered to have state accreditation valid indefinitely.

HSE University no longer provides paper copies of its State Accreditation Certificate following the enactment of Federal Law No. 631-FZ dated December 29, 2022, effective September 1, 2023, ‘On Amendments to the Federal Law “On Education in the Russian Federation”’, which introduces a register of educational institutions that have been awarded state accreditation.

Details regarding the state accreditation status of degree programmes offered by HSE University are published in the Register of Organisations Conducting Educational Activities under State-Accredited Educational Programmes (in Russian) on the official website of the Federal Service for Supervision in Education and Science. 

The list of accredited educational programmes offered by HSE Univeristy is included in the section concerning the availability of state accreditation for degree programmes within the Register of Organisations Conducting Educational Activities under State-Accredited Educational Programmes (in Russian).
