Unlike most other business schools and universities in Russia and abroad, EMAS conducts ongoing scientific work in the field of strategic management, the result of which is a comprehensive methodology and tools for business modeling, business planning and strategic management.

Finally, in 2023, a voluminous work was published – a book describing the third, current version of the methodology and tools.
The comprehensive methodology and tools of strategic management developed and constantly updated within the walls of EMAS are significantly superior to classical and most of the modern developments in their depth and practical applicability. Most of other business schools, universities and scientific organizations in the World do not carry out many years of in-depth, comprehensive scientific research in this area and do not have scientific developments comparable to those of EMAS.
To carry out scientific work, a scientific institute has been created within the structure of the EMAS Business School – the Eurasian Management and Administration School, whose task is to conduct scientific research, prepare scientific publications and certify teachers.
