The European University at Saint Petersburg[3] (Russian: Европейский университет в Санкт-Петербурге), sometimes referred to as EUSP, is a non-state graduate university located in Saint Petersburg, Russia. It was founded in 1994.

The main language of instruction at the university is Russian. However, the Department of Political Science and Sociology (ranked top three in Eastern Europe and the best in Russia in 2002[4]) in 1998 launched a programme in Russian and Eurasian studies IMARES[5] for graduates of Western universities, which is delivered in English. A similar program though more concentrated on Russian cultural history and arts, MARCA, existed until 2017.[6] The third MA program with English training, Energy Politics in Eurasia or ENERPO, started in Fall 2012.[7]
