In 2008–2009, 29 national research universities (NRU) with approved priority areas of development were established in Russia. In 2019 the ten-year program of development of NRU comes to an end. The article presents the results of the analysis of the national research universities’ activity of training scientific personnel for high-tech industries. Two indicators were calculated for each priority area of development of NRU reflecting the shares of defenses of candidate and doctor theses in the national research universities in relation to all thesis defenses. This made it possible to assess what leading positions in priority areas are occupied by the national research universities. The analysis showed that NRU do not provide leading positions to 30% of the priority areas of development. In general, most of the national research universities occupy high positions in certain (specific) priority areas of development in terms of training scientific personnel for high-tech sectors of the economy.
