Abstract

The problem of promoting universities in international rankings, the ratio of the number of universities in China and the Russian Federation, as well as the selection of mechanisms for the successful promotion of universities in the Academic Ranking of World Universities (ARWU) and the Moscow international rating “Three University Missions” (MosIUR) are in the focus of research. The hypothesis is that the development of an international rating is a state task that meets the current conditions of globalization in the world. The results of ARWU and MosIUR universities in Russia and China for 2017 - 2019 are presented, a comparative analysis of the total number of Russian and Chinese universities, the dynamics of their progress in rankings is made. The results of a survey of university teachers about their level of awareness on ARWU and MosIUR are discussed. The conclusions about the orientation of universities in Russia and China towards the internationalization of the national system of higher education are drawn. The participation of Russian and Chinese universities in ARWU and MosIUR is an important state task in context of the world competitiveness of universities.
