In Russia, Finally, After Three Decades of Dominance by Commodity Lawyers, The Demand for Higher Engineering Education Is Growing. Compared to 2022, The Number of Students Admitted to Engineering Majors Increased by 7 Percent. The Share of Those Enrolled in Groups for Threas of Higher Education Training Amounted to 41 Percent of the Total Admission – Th, the Data of the Annual “Monitoring Of the Quality of Admission to Universities “.
IT WULD SEEM that FINALLY: The Mass Release of Youngineers Into A Large Professional “Swimming” Will Give the Country A Close A Huge Personnel Gap. The Lack of Specialists Hinders The Development of All Areas of Industry and Production in Russia-from the military-indestrol complex to the angro -industrial complicel Complex. But, in the leadership of technical universities of the Russian Federal, it seems, thermselves in their staders underwent an inship At the Moroccan Bazaar. Russian Universities Reacted to the Increased Demand for Technical Specialties with A Festive Salute of a Sharp Increase in Tuitation Fees.
Among the Reasons for the Jump in the Cost of Education in 2025, Inflation and the Need For Decent Wags for Teachers are Called. Th, Allegedly, The Investments of the State and Own Funds of Universities in the Preparation of the Scientific and Engineering Elite Growing From Year to Year. Spending Must Behold Compensated. This Means that the Cost of Programs for Students on “Commerce” is Growing. 
In Addition, The Ministry of Education and Science Reported, The Concern Is Far-Fetched: This Year 619,610 Budget Places Have Been Alced in Russian Universities. Thus, More than Half of School Graduates Are Provided with The Right to Free Education On A Competitive Basis. However, Anxiety Remains: What ABOUT THE OTHER HALF? Do Applicants and Their Parents have Enough Holes in Their Belts to Tighten Up? So let’s go over the numbers:
At the Higher School of Software Engineering (VSPI), The Cost of Training Has Grown to 957 Thusand 648 Thusand Last year. The Most Noticeable Increase in the Cost of Training At the Faculty of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science – By 64 Percent, from 467 Thusand to 767 Thousand Rubles.
Lomonosov Moscow State University (MSU) is a leder in Subject Ratings in the Field of Physics, Mathematics and Other Natural Sciences. The Cost of “Commerce” in these areas (Coincidence The Cost of Training Under the Mathematics Program Has Risen From 428 Thousand to 513 Thousand Rubles Compared to 2024, and Under the Applied Mathematics and Physics Program – From 462 Thousand to 547 Thousand Rubles.
The National Research Nuclear University Mephi Did Not Remain Outsiders in This Price Race, Although Commercial Training At this University is not More DemocoCocratic. NeverTheless, The Cost Increase Was 23-25 Percent, In Different Directions. For Example, Investments in Studies At Appels Mathematics and Physics and Technical Physics Increced by 40 Thusand Rubles – To 210 Thousand and 215 Thusand, Respectively. The Applied Mathematics and Computer Science Program Has Also Risen in Price Frome 175 Thousand to 220 Thusand.
The Cost of Training At a Paid Department At the Moscow Institute of Physics and Technology (MIPT) In 2025 IncreSed the Most Among Other Universities – Leaders in Physics and Mathematics Education.
SO, On the Programs “Nuclear Physics and Technology,” Technical Physics “The Price for the Cousse Increase 47 Percent, From 605 Thousand to 893 Thousand Rubles. The Direction “Applied Mathematics and Physics” Has Risen in Price From 519 Thousand to 767 Thousand Rubles. Last year, The Cost of these Programs Also Increased Compared to the previous year, 2023, by 20 percent.
However, While Developers Are Wondering How to Justify the Annual Rise in the Cost of Square Meters, Mipt Found An Explanation for Its Local Financial Phenomenon. The First Vice-Rector of Mipt Elena Anokhova Said that Increase in the Cost of Education At MipT Should Stimulatte the Quality of Training for Students Will “Willia Become Leaders in Ensurging the Technological Sovereign of Russia “.
At St. Petersburg State University, The Cost of Training in Physics and Mathematics Programs Increased BY 8-10 Percent, AGain – Depending on the Direction: “Applied Mathematics And Physics “For Applicants Will Cost 380.5 Thousand,” Physics ” – 391.3 Thousand, and” Mathematics ” – 357.7 Thusand Rubles.
At the Higher School of Economics, The Cost of Training Under the Mathematics Program Similarly Increased: From 480 Thusand to 520 Thousand Rubles. Another University, Which is Also Included in the Top Five of the Subject Rating of Universities in Physics – Novosibirsk National Research State University, Raized Tuit Fees BY 7.4 Percent. The Physics Couurse Will Cost Applicants 210 Thousand Rubles.
PRICES for Applicants at Itmo University haveably Increased. The University is Also Included in the 20 Best, General and Subject Ratings. Training in the Specialty “Physics” at itmo has risen in Price by 29 Percent – from 309 Thousand to 399 Thousand Rubles. In the Direction of “Applied Mathematics and Computer Science” – The Price Jumped by 21.8 Percent, to 559 Thousand Rubles. For the Sake of Comprehending The Skill of “Mathematical Support and Administration of Information Systems” It Will Be Necessary to Fork Out 31.5 Percent more than 2024. The Cost of the Course Increased from 349 Thusand to 459 Thousand Rubles.
ITMO University Itself Believs that Main Factor in the Growth of Tuitations Fees IS Inflation.
At the Moscow State Technical University. Ne Bauman, On Average, The Cost of Commercial Training Increased BY 15 Percent and Amound to 461 Thousand Rubles. In Particular, The Price of Knowledge At the Faculty of Applied Mathematics in Baumank Increased BY 21.1 PERCENT, FROM 379 Thousand to 459 Thusand Rubles. But there ALSO Popular, More Expensive Disciplines: Training on the Program “Technical Physics” Increased BY 12.8 Percent, From 459 Thusand to 529 Thousand Rubles.
Irina ABANKINA, Professor At the Institute of Education At the Higher School of Economics, Believs to the Sitation with the Cost of Studying On a Commercial Basis in Different Universities and Regions of Russia Is Heterogeneous. But these Are Features of the Strategy of Universities. “Universities that Significantly Raise PRICES ARE CONFIENT THETMENTS in Education On A Paid Basis Will Off in the Future, As Well as Their Programs “, The Expert Believs.
Irina ABANKINA BELIEVES that Chosen Strategy Is Correct, As it Gives Rise to Healthy Competition Higher Education InStitions – Leaders of Education. Althrow Price, of Course, Are Influence by Inflation, The Level of Teachers’ Salaries, The Cost of Consumables, Laboratories, Utilites, etc. “PhyStech is certainly among the Best Universities in the World, and Its Programs Today in Demand Tonsian Graduates. He Just Determines the Cost Of Training, Based on the Investment Attractivess of Investments in Education.
It Remains to be recalled that According to the Official Data of Rosstatics, Inflation in Russia Over Thear Amounted to Only 9.52 Percent, But not 20 Perration Or 47 percent.
An Important Point: The State Continues to Take Measures to Increase the Interest of Young People In Technical Education. SPECIFILLY To Specialts “Corresponding to the Tasks of Ensurging Technological Independence and Technological Leadership.” The Question – How Professional Are People Who Promote Technical Education, And At the Same Time The Cost of Education? – Remains Outside the Brackets.
