Updated Facts and Figures and Dashboards Now Available on HSE Website
The HSE Office of Analytics and Data Management, together with the Visual Communications Unit, has developed a new Facts and Figures about HSE University page on the HSE website. In addition, all university staff now have access to a dashboard with the updated indicators of the Priority 2030 programme.
Facts and Figures is a section of the portal that provides an overview of HSE University. It presents the university’s key indicators in education, research, student life, as well as data on rankings, partnerships, and more.
The new version is distinguished by the interactivity of most elements. The section has become a kind of menu: by clicking on a figure or fact, users are redirected to the corresponding page of the HSE website for more detailed information. This means that to introduce HSE to partners and external stakeholders, one can simply send them a link to Facts and Figures.
The HSE Office of Analytics and Data Management also publishes information on HSE’s current positions in international rankings and develops analytical dashboards (in Russian) for university staff. In 2025, the Priority 2030 programme was reoriented towards achieving technological leadership, and its target indicators were updated. These are now available in the corresponding dashboard.
Users can explore HSE’s plans for meeting the programme’s targets (calculated for the university as a whole) and compare any of the 100 participating universities with one another.
In addition, any staff member with a corporate e-mail has access to:
a dashboard with detailed HSE performance indicators in education and research, detailed for campuses and faculties.
a dashboard with data on universities’ participation in rankings.
a dashboard with data from the Monitoring of Performance of Higher Education Institutions.

‘Our aim was not simply to present data, but to make it genuinely useful and easy to interpret,’ said Elena Odoevskaya, HSE Vice Rector. ‘Now each indicator is a starting point for exploring a specific area of HSE’s work. The page has become an interactive calling card of the university, always at hand. For our colleagues, we have also made available the updated Priority 2030 dashboard. It enables real-time monitoring of our progress towards the programme’s goals, assessment of our standing, and comparative analysis with other participants. Our task is to ensure that data becomes the foundation for quality work and sound decision-making. All analytical products developed by the Office of Analytics and Data Management are always available on the unit’s webpage.’

‘Data has ceased to be a by-product of the university’s activity and has become an asset that supports strategically important decisions,’ emphasised HSE Director of Analytics and Data Management Evgeniya Dannik. ‘Our goal is to make it as accessible, user-friendly, and systematised as possible for unit heads, analysts, and all staff involved in strategic planning. To this end, we have created an ecosystem of dashboards covering key analytical areas—from internal performance indicators and annual monitoring to strategic comparisons with leading universities in Russia and worldwide. HSE staff now have not a set of disparate reports, but a unified and visually comprehensible picture of what is happening—whether it be annual report data, positions in international rankings, or comparisons with other universities. We do not simply collect information; we provide tools that help turn it into evidence-based decisions and concrete action.’
