The Higher School of Economics (HSE) in Moscow is one of the leading universities in Russia and offers an excellent range of courses on the history of Russia and the Soviet Union. Students (Bachelor, Master, PhD) can apply for a study visit.
Due to the war of aggression of the Russian Federation against Ukraine, the Bavarian State Government has advised Bavarian universities to suspend cooperations with the Russian Federation. Thus the cooperation with the HSE will be adjourned until further notice.
Exchange with the European University Institute, Florence
PhD students can also apply for an exchange with the European University Institute in Florence.
