Abstract
The authors conducted an analytical review of trends in the development of higher education in the perspective of integration into the European scientific and educational space.
The trends in the development of modern higher education in Ukraine are determined by the desire of our state to integrate into the globalized European space. Understanding them in the national and global dimensions, we note two dominant positions, which can be presented both as a result and as a mechanism of this development: digitalization of education, the unconditional values of which are the development of the social capital of the students of education, their technical and technological competence, mastering the IT educational environment; internationalization of education. Its axiological component is extrapolated through the system of higher education of Ukraine that is understandable for the international community, which is achieved through integration with the European space of higher education and research space, ensuring competitiveness and strengthening the potential of higher education. In addition, it is obvious that modern social, political, and economic realities, transformational processes in the state education system, also significantly change established views regarding the professional level and personal qualities of a graduate of an educational institution. There is no doubt that thier level of preparation must meet international standards that formulate the requirements of competitiveness not only in the labor market of Ukraine, but also in other foreign countries. A modern university graduate must demonstrate not only the variability of knowledge, show interpersonal empathy and tolerance for any diversity, but also have developed prognostic and reflective skills, possess multicultural and inclusive competences, demonstrate professional mobility. The specialist must also be a part of the era of digitalization, which will enable competitiveness at the global level.
