University of Tyumen has been actively developing fruitful international academic partnerships. UTMN is one of the cofounders of the BRICS University Network. The number of partners within BRICS member countries continues to grow, currently including three top-level Brazilian universities (Fluminense Federal University, Federal University of Rio de Janeiro and University of São Paulo); UTMN researchers are conducing joint-research projects in the field of biodiversity with partners from China, India, and South Africa.
UTMN scientists along with five German universities (University of Münster, University of Kiel, Humboldt University of Berlin, University of Osnabrück and Osnabrück University of Applied Sciences) and EFTAS Company are implementing a multi-faceted research project “Sustainable land use and adaptive strategies to climate change for agricultural zones of Western Siberia” (“SASCHA”).



Maxim Mitropolskiy, PhD student at the Institute of Biology, received the Rufford Foundation fellowship to study the ecological adaptation of species to environmental conditions within two complexes of mammalian species.
UTMN is also home to four multipurpose centers listed in the State register for valuable equipment.


Engineering center employees are attempting to establish a theoretical and practical basis for designing, organizing and implementing the construction of paved access routes on frozen ground during the winter months within the extreme climate conditions of Siberia (on swamps and deep-frozen soil).
The International Centre for Inclusive Education was created at UTMN as a part of the EU TEMPUS Programme. Using grant finances, the UTMN purchased special equipment for individuals with disabilities.
UTMN created the International Centre for Inclusive Education as part of the EU TEMPUS Program, expanding access for peoples with disabilities across the university.

Likewise, UTMN hosts more than 382 PhD students conducting their research work across 10 Thesis committees.


In 2014-2015 16 PhD and master students received the President of the Russian Federation scholarship as a result of the annual competition held by the Ministry of Education and Science of the Russian Federation to study abroad. This scholarship is granted to students who demonstrated their skills in various fields of science, culture and art, and made significant advances in fundamental and applied research.
