  • Volga State Technological University is the closest domestic counterpart for civil engineering, ecology and sustainability and mechanical engineering; it runs the same bachelor's, master's and doctoral programmes, and covers agriculture and electrical and electronics as well.

Most Similar Schools Abroad

  • Lutsk National Technical University in Ukraine is the nearest foreign match on civil engineering, ecology and sustainability and mechanical engineering; it covers automation as well, and is slightly smaller, at about 6,000 students against roughly 8,000 here.
  • Seen from abroad, National University Zaporizhzhia Polytechnic (Ukraine) is a close relative on subject matter, since civil engineering, mechanical engineering and materials are central to both, and it covers automation and electrical and electronics as well, and is slightly larger, at about 10,000 students against roughly 8,000 here.
  • A foreign alternative with a similar emphasis on civil engineering, mechanical engineering and materials is Indian Institute of Engineering Science and Technology Shibpur in India, and it teaches at the same levels, namely bachelor's, master's and doctoral, and covers industrial design and AI and machine learning as well.
  • Guangdong University of Technology, based in China, is built around chemical engineering, civil engineering and mechanical engineering much like this institution, and it is far larger, with about 46,022 students against roughly 8,000 here, and is also a public institution.
  • Missouri University of Science and Technology in the United States pursues a similar profile in civil engineering, mechanical engineering and materials, and it covers aerospace and AI and machine learning as well, and has almost the same size, at about 8,000 students.

*our own picks (our criteria: a mix between domains, diploma delivered, reputation and size), but obviously too many criteria for an apple-to-apple ranking.

*: without any judgment of the quality, readers are strongly encouraged to check the official status of the exact diploma envisioned as many universities have a mix of recognized diplomas, not recognized, “co-delivered,” “equivalent to”,  “some pathways” (…), can change over time, and can be named differently from one country to another.

 

**: international reputation: is based on some criteria that do not mean much in some domains or specialties (number of researchers, of scientific publications, on budget ….). Our approximate 1-4 scale: 

  1. known locally
  2. known locally and internationally
  3. is listed in some of the world university’s classifications
  4. is listed among the 20 firsts in some of world university’s classifications

***: estimated numbers, based on online sources and/or feedbacks. The numbers can vary greatly depending on school organisation (ex.: school is part of a group, it employs internal staff or external consultants or has public staff without employing them …).
