More than 100 Russian higher education institutions participated in the methodology approbation in 2012. The paper focuses on the methodology concept, its principles, tools, and methods of data processing.The authors explore the definition of "multidimensional ranking" and demonstrate its benefits compared to single dimensional rankings. It is shown that the multidimensional approach for universities ranking is more suitable for assessing national higher education institutions as it takes into account the complexity and diversity of the national higher education system. The selected tools for ranking construction are described and the reasons for choosing these tools are explained. The evaluation areas (Research, Teaching, Internationalization, Knowledge Transfer and Engagement with Regional Stakeholders) and the system of indicators are also discussed.It is demonstrated that the developed ranking methodology can be applied for a comprehensive evaluation of higher education institutions, their benchmarking and comparison, identification of HEIs’ strengths and weaknesses.},
