New Economic School, Business school in Moscow, Russia
The New Economic School is a private institution in Moscow that specializes in economics, finance, and related fields for both undergraduate and graduate students. The modern campus in Skolkovo contains classrooms, research facilities, and spaces where students develop professional skills in economic disciplines.
Founded in 1992 as Russia shifted toward a market economy, the school received support from both the Russian government and international educational foundations. The institution opened doors to foreign professors early on, shaping how economics was taught in the country.
The school shapes Moscow's academic landscape by bringing together scholars and students from around the world to study economics. Walking through the campus, you see a mix of Russian and international faces engaged in everyday learning and discussion.
The campus is located in Skolkovo, a modern business and education district west of Moscow. Visitors can reach it by public transportation or car, and the grounds are clearly marked with good access from the main roads.
The faculty includes researchers who hold doctoral degrees from universities like Harvard and MIT, which was uncommon in Russian higher education when the school started. This brought a global research standard to how economics was studied and taught in Moscow.
