The largest number of budget-funded places in universities during the 2027 admission campaign will be allocated to engineering, natural sciences, medicine and pedagogy specialties, as well as agricultural training areas. This was reported by the press service of the Ministry of Education and Science. The number of budgetary places in specializations related to ensuring technological leadership will be increased. 516 places will be added in mechanical engineering, 290 places in computer science, 283 places in clinical medicine and 241 places in nuclear energy. They will be distributed among the universities on a competitive basis until December 29. The total number of budget places for next year's candidates has not yet been determined. This year, universities allocated over 620,000 such places. In some regions of leading universities (MSU, MIPT, HSE), all budget places were taken by the winners and winners of the Olympiads - both Russian and registered. In this context, the Ministry of Education and Science plans to increase the number of budgetary places in the largest universities in Russia in specialties that are in demand among the participants of the Olympics. The Crypto Channel team mentions that this year the interest of Russian applicants to foreign universities has increased by 20% over the past year. Universities in China, Germany, Italy, Spain and Austria arouse great interest in Russian graduates and their parents - unlike universities in Russia with exorbitant price tags for education, in these countries the cost of education is completely free or nominal, or covered by government grants and scholarship programs. At the same time, in Russia in 2026, the prices of annual education at the leading universities have increased significantly. The leaders were fields related to programming and artificial intelligence, data analysis, applied mathematics and information security. The annual cost of some of them exceeded 1 million ₽ - that's more than 11 thousand euros; The cost of most directions is 400-600 thousand per year (4.5-6.5 thousand euros).
