The European University at Saint-Petersburg (EUSP) was founded in 1994 as a non-governmental post-graduate school specializing in the social sciences. EUSP combines teaching with scholarly research - a method which enables us to provide an education on a par with Western institutions, and which also allows us to prepare a new generation of leading Russian academics. The EUSP provides the expert knowledge necessary for introducing and implementing key reforms, essential to the successful development of the country.
