The Lomonosov Moscow State University (MSU)  ranks 25th  in this year’s World Reputation Rankings list of the world’s best universities, next to a Singaporean university (24th) and a Chinese one (26th ). This is the highest position Russia’s most renowned university has had so far in a ranking like this, the Russian news agency RIA Novosti  reported . 

This is a list put together by Times Higher Education in partnership with Thomson Reuters; it includes the world’s top 100 universities with the best reputation. To make the list, the partners interviewed more than 10,000 scientists in 140 countries. 

The ranking also features another Russian university, the St. Petersburg State University, which ranks in the list’s 71-80 group. 

Last year, MSU was lower than the 50th ; but the makers said the Moscow university had the potential to improve. The St. Pete university has never been listed in a World Reputation Rankings rating before. 

As in 2014, Harvard is the first on the list with overall score 100. For comparison: MSU, which is the 25th, has an overall score of only 9.9.
