By order of the Ministry of Science and Higher Education of the Russian Federation dated October 28, 2025, No. 1051, a dissertation council 24.2.293.04 was established at the State University of Management for the scientific specialty 5.2.3.

The council includes leading economists from SUM and invited specialists from the country's largest specialized universities. The decision by the Russian Ministry of Education and Science confirms the high level of our university's research and expands opportunities for graduate students and researchers to defend dissertations on current development areas in the agro-industrial complex.

Today, the State University of Management has five dissertation councils in economic and technical sciences, including a joint council with the Belgorod State Technological University named after V.G. Shukhov (BSTU). These are large-scale platforms where a modern scientific school of management is being formed and research in the fields of global, regional, and sectoral economics, as well as management, logistics, and transportation, is advanced.
