UNIBASE is an Educational Bridge Between International Applicants and Russian Universities

You want to get a higher education in Russia but don’t know where to start? Unibase | Russia. Study, a single platform for searching universities, will help you. With Unibase, you will easily gain insight into the subtle details of admission regulations at Russian universities and find your dream university.

Unibase was founded in 2018 by Sergey Kondratiev, a prominent representative of a new wave of Russian educators who devoted his career to the development of the export of educational services and the integration of Russia into the global education space.

Science and Management Journey: Sechenov University

The groundwork for Sergey Kondratiev’s professional journey was laid at I.M. Sechenov First Moscow State Medical University, where he worked for a total of 12 years. His work at the top Russian medical university allowed him not only to defend his candidate's thesis but also to gain unique managerial experience.

Sergey Kondratiev held important positions at his alma mater that involved recruiting and selecting candidates. As a Deputy Executive Secretary of the Admissions Committee, he was responsible for the complex student recruitment processes. As a Deputy Director of the Center for International Education, he supervised a wide range of tasks. 

He was responsible for cooperating with recruiting companies across the globe, organizing large-scale international events, and coordinating the learning process for foreign citizens. This experience allowed him to study international students’ needs from the inside out and see the potential for the development of international cooperation of Russian universities.

UNIBASE | RUSSIA.STUDY: Mission to Promote Russian Education

Sergey Kondratiev started unlocking this potential by founding the Unibase company (Unibase | Russia. Study brand). The company with the offices in Russia and China set itself an ambitious goal to become a bridge between international applicants and Russian universities.

Unibase consistently promotes Russian education and popularizes the Russian language abroad. The company’s main mission is to help international applicants navigate admission regulations at Russian universities, making the process 
clear and understandable.

The company actively develops cooperation with leading universities by organizing visits of delegations and signing agreements, as well as participating in major education fairs such as CIEET in China. In June 2025, with the support of Unibase, Sechenov University opened its Representative Office and Testing Center in the city of Hangzhou (China), where applicants can take entrance exams without leaving their country. This confirmed the status of the company as a reliable partner.

The company's success was also noted at the country level. In December 2025, Unibase acted as the contractor for Tula State Pedagogical University named after L.N. Tolstoy in holding the Forum of Foreign Graduates of Soviet and Russian Universities that took place in Beijing. The event brought together over 200 guests from different Asian countries and representatives of Russia’s public sector. The administration of Rossotrudnichestvo and the university expressed a high opinion of the forum, which proves the Unibase team’s expertise in holding international events.

Russia’s Attractiveness: Quality, Traditions, and Security

In Sergey Kondratiev’s opinion, Russia is becoming a more and more attractive study destination for international students, and its commitment to traditional values is a pivotal factor influencing their choice. Russian universities offer a classical approach to education. The quality of education in Russia, whether engineering, medicine, or humanities, remains at a traditionally high level and is recognized across the globe. This aspect becomes a decisive point for parents choosing a study destination for their child. The opportunity to provide children with fundamental knowledge and ensure that they grow up in an environment respecting family and cultural values makes Russia an optimal choice.

Under the leadership of Sergey Kondratiev, Unibase not only fills in gaps in applicants’ knowledge of admission regulations but also communicates the values that make Russia a unique place to study and live. The company provides reliable support for Russian universities in attracting international students, helping them strengthen their prominence internationally.
