status of a higher school for the humanities. Today the RGGU offers more

social education, as well as several cross-disciplinary programs. The
university produces the following specialists: historians, philologists,
linguists, ethnologists, anthropologists, philosophers, economists,
managers, IT specialists, art historians, designers, museologists, culture
