More than 150 foreign students study today at our Faculty. They come from Venezuela, Romania, India, China, Serbia, Korea, Guyana, Baltic countries, Belarus, Azerbaijan, Ukraine, Kazakhstan, Armenia and other countries.
Our fees are reasonable.
Employment opportunities are great!
Our students receive deep fundamental education in applied mathematics, statistics, informatics and computer science. They are taught to think globally and are well known for their non-standard approach to problem solving. As a result many of them hold important positions in academic institutions, universities, in industry, financial and trade organizations, companies and banks both in Russia and abroad.
