The article presents the results of research of information on international university networks. Thus, 33 international networks of universities, including 13 associations, 12 networks, 8 consortiums were selected according to specific requirements (international, functioning for at least 2 years, the existence of cooperation agreements between the network structures, the presence of more than 4 structures), examined and analyzed. The analysis of networks by various criteria has been carried out. The conclusions about the efficiency of functioning of university networks are presented in the article.
