The British agency Times Higher Education has published the results of the World University Ranking 2025. This year, the number of higher education institutions represented in the ranking has increased by almost 10%. St. Petersburg Polytechnic University took 5th place in the ranking among all Russian universities. The university showed significant growth in such criteria as the number of scientific publications in relation to the number of research and teaching staff, income from research and development work, and the number of registered patents for unique developments.
Peter the Great St. Petersburg Polytechnic University took 5th place in the national ranking of Russian universities, and in the overall ranking of world universities it was in the 501–600 group. The Polytechnic’s work on knowledge transfer turned out to be especially effective: the university received twice as many points for the number of registered patents for inventions as the year before.
In addition, SPbPU received a high score for international activities. Also, compared to the indicators of the similar rating last year, the income from research and development work in relation to the number of faculty members increased by 5%.
Our focus on applied research and development is already beginning to be reflected in international rankings. Today, partnership with industry and technology transfer are our strengths, due to which we gain an advantage in the competitive struggle. However, publication activity, especially in terms of high-quartile articles, where applied knowledge is in high demand, can also be one of our development areas, – comments SPbPU Rector Andrey Rudskoy.
At the same time, Vice-Rector for International Affairs Dmitry Arsenyev notes: “In the current conditions, it may be difficult to work on the international market, but we are fully successful in this. We maintain our leading positions in the share of foreign students due to a well-thought-out cluster policy of interaction with promising world regions and a wide range of events that ensure the promotion of Russian engineering education as a brand.”
Competition among global research universities is growing every year. We see recognition of the effectiveness of our policy of supporting the development of import-advanced technologies and the development of technological entrepreneurship. Due to this, the number of patents registered by our scientists has increased significantly. We plan to continue working in this direction, as well as pay special attention to strengthening ties with friendly countries to improve the Polytechnic’s position in the international arena, – noted Acting Vice-Rector for Prospective Projects of SPbPU Maria Vrublevskaya.
