Abstract

The article considers problems of developing the domestic higher education system in modern conditions, which determine the need for its reforming. It shows that these problems, as in many areas of national socio-economic development, are complex in nature, due to a serious loss of the best traditions of Soviet higher education, illegal copying non-best examples of foreign experience, a significant imbalance in the system of science, higher education and production (economic activity) relationships in the domestic space. The paper highlights key problems of developing the domestic higher education system, and the main trends of its reforming, which meet the challenge of modern society and the needs of the future society. It demonstrates that the need to reform the system of domestic higher education as a response to the modern society challenges today is determined by the urgency of simultaneous implementation of all innovative changes inherent in innovations according to J. Schumpeter in the system of domestic higher education, including the need to change the approach to selecting the student contingent contributing to choosing the most capable and talented youth for universities; a radial shift as a result of changing the technological structures of the product (goods, works, services) composition, which requires an adequate change in training the university personnel; intensive development of educational technologies due to new opportunities provided by information technologies; expedient modification of organizational structures in the higher education system due to the possibilities of digitalization; changing the nature of the “state-university” link interaction forcing universities to prepare universal graduates as the opportunities of employment in a particular profession for graduates of Russian universities have become probabilistic due to the changed market conditions. The authors propose an algorithm to form a new methodological approach for adaptive transformations of the higher education system using end-to-end digital technologies.
