Journal Title: Проблеми економіки - Year 2014, Vol 2014, Issue 4
Abstract
The objective of the article is the analysis of the current status of higher education in Ukraine and its development prospects. The article emphasizes the interpretation of higher education as one of the intellectual assets of Ukraine which provides significant opportunities for storage, reproduction, and accumulation of knowledge. The legal framework for educational activities in Ukraine was analyzed, and rationale was provided for the private education functioning on a level with the public education. The study also describes the system of higher educational establishments currently existing in Ukraine and discusses the intrasystemic causes of the deteriorating quality of higher education. The rates of increase in the number of students at higher educational establishments of the 3rd and 4th accreditation levels, as well as rates of growth in the number of graduates over the past five years were established to have negative values. A comparison of the staffing of state-affiliated and private higher education establishments demonstrated the ability of Ukrainian educational establishments with varying forms of ownership to provide services of equal quality. The article also analyzes the structure of state financing for higher education and reaches a conclusion on the degree to which financing for domestic education approaches the European standards. Special emphasis is put on the structural deformation of the system of higher education in Ukraine and its excessive humanization. The article also identifies positive trends in training top-qualification specialists and substantiates the necessity of organizing advance training for the population using the continuing education system and making higher education more accessible. A comparative analysis of indicative rates of higher education and professional training in Ukraine and leading countries of the world was conducted.
