Russia is the legal successor of the former Soviet Union. During the Soviet period, its education system was divided into preschool education, general education, vocational and technical education, secondary professional education and higher education (including postgraduate education established by institutions of higher learning and scientific research institutions). Its institutions of higher learning have a special academic structure, and the full-time years are mostly 5-6 years, which is different from China and some European and American countries. The duration of undergraduate study in China and the United States is generally 4 years, in Britain it is 3 years, and in France and Germany it is 3-4 years. Russians believe that the level and quality of higher education in their universities have surpassed that of undergraduate courses in Europe and America, so they have set up a unique academic degree-"expert", which is equivalent to a master's degree internationally. After graduating from an expert degree, you can directly study for an associate doctor. In China, the certification result of the Ministry of Education is equivalent to a master's diploma. The structure and degree system of Russian higher education do have its particularity, which reflects Russia's unique cultural background and educational tradition.

Generally speaking, the undergraduate degree in Russia is four years, the expert degree is five years, and the postgraduate degree is generally two years. After graduation, with the permission of the embassy, you can apply for a "certificate of returned overseas students" when you return to China, and then you can find a job normally.

Current education system in Russia;

1, 4 years for undergraduate+2 years for master+3 years for associate doctor.

2, "expert degree" 5 years+"associate doctor" 3 years.

Graduates of institutions of higher learning who have obtained master's degrees and expert qualifications can directly apply for associate doctoral degrees for 3 years. If you pass the associate doctoral qualification examination, you can write a thesis, and through the defense, you can get the certification of the associate doctoral degree in the corresponding discipline, which is equivalent to the doctoral degree certificate.
