The American higher education system consists of over 4,700 institutions educating over twenty-one million students. The most striking feature of this system is its diversity. There is no “typical college.” Much of the story about the future of America’s four-year higher education institutions is found in their differences, not their similarities. Schools are public and private, large and small, elite and open enrollment, tuition dependent and well endowed, liberal arts oriented and vocational. The challenges facing America’s colleges and universities will affect the diverse parts of this system in very different ways. Generalizing about this system can be very dangerous.

Under globalization conditions, the main priority of the state education policy in many countries of the world is to ensure higher education quality. This is possible through close and efficient cooperation between the state, higher education institutions, future specialists, employers and innovative structures (clusters). This study focuses on the development of indicators that can comprehensively assess the effectiveness of regional innovation clusters in the higher education system. The main attention is given to the analysis of innovations, business, education development and competitiveness, as indicators of the effectiveness of regional innovation clusters in the higher education system. The following methods have been used within the research: content analysis, statistical, correlation and regression analysis, econometric modeling and the graphical method. As a result of the research, indicators of the effectiveness of regional innovation clusters have been identified and the impact of these indicators on the higher education system has been evaluated. The authors have shown that there is a close relationship between the level of development of regional innovation clusters, indicators of business and innovations development, and the level of competitiveness. The direct impact of those on the higher education system has been established and confirmed by the provided calculations.

The objective of this work is to study the limitations and opportunities for e-learning development in the inclusive education system in higher education establishments. To determine the possibility of e-learning application in inclusive higher education, the principles of evolutionary economics and institutional theory were used. It is shown that e-learning development in the national higher education system and its perception by the higher inclusive education system depends on the development level of social and information interrelations in society. Moreover, e-learning application in inclusive higher education is possible only in collaboration with traditional learning. E-learning efficiency in inclusive higher education depends on institutional environment existing both at state level and separate university level. Herewith, institutional environment should be aimed not only at e-learning development and inclusive education, but also their collaboration. The results achieved are verified by empirical study of e-learning implementation into the inclusive higher education system by the example of Russia. The results of the conducted research, which indicated peculiarities, opportunities and limitations of an e-learning mechanism in inclusive higher education, can be applied to increase its efficiency both at separate universities level and at the level of state strategies formation for higher education development.

This article examines the key events leading to the creation of the California higher education system and Clark Kerr’s influential concept the “multiversity.” The wide, uncritical reception of this term requires explanation, which the essay explores both in terms of Kerr’s 1963 book, The Uses of the University, and in terms of its impact even on historical scholarship about American higher education. The essay concludes by finding the multiversity a highly selective (not an inclusive) standard and a latter-day extension of a pragmatic ideology with a long history and many unacknowledged problems.

Based on research material, the authors of the present article determine and critically comprehend the problems and specifics of the Russian higher education development in the current context. It is concluded that the global trends of digitalization, internationalization, commercialization, as well as the internal circumstances of the Russian reality (administrative pressure, economic decline, etc.), have significantly changed the Russian higher education system and caused difficulties in its development (narrow departmental nature of educational policy, shifting the focus on the qualitative content of fundamental education to the wayside, etc.). In order to solve the noted problems, it is proposed to use the theoretical and practical developments of the issues concerning the education content and form of the most prominent Russian researchers (N.A. Berdyaev, S.N. Bulgakov, M.O. Gershenzon, S.L. Frank, etc.), and to implement methods of a constructive combination of the classical university strategy and commercialization, focused on the interests of society and science.

The Problem With the rise of a globalized knowledge-based economy, the Vietnamese government has demonstrated a determination to build world-class universities by making higher education development one of the top national priorities. The Vietnamese higher education system is an interesting case of a latecomer’s development in an emerging market economy regulated by a single-party socialist state espousing communism. Although they have invested in higher education for decades, the system is still in a trial phase. For example, only two national universities cracked the top 150 in the Asian region, not in the world. Although the faculty talent pool can significantly help achieve the goals of the Vietnamese higher education system, the quality of Vietnamese faculty members is a key limitation. Furthermore, literature on talent development (TD) for faculty in the Vietnamese context is rare. The Solution This study aims to explore faculty TD trends and issues in the Vietnamese higher education system. This comprehensive review of the literature (a) provides an overview of the Vietnamese higher education system; (b) presents findings on the scope, foci, activities, and outcomes of faculty TD activities, and (c) provides implications for policy, practice, and further research on TD for faculty in Vietnam. As few published reviews of faculty TD in Vietnamese universities are available, the current comprehensive literature review can set the foundation for more effective practices and further research on TD and human resources development (HRD) for faculty in Vietnam. The Stakeholders The recommendations provided from this study will help HRD practitioners, institutional and ministerial decision makers, and faculty members in Vietnam.


Higher education is the basis of the intellectual and material well-being of the state. During 1991- 2019, a number of studies have been carried out, both theoretical and empirical, connected with studies of higher education in Ukraine. The genesis of higher education in Ukraine from 1991 to 2019 has undergone several important stages. The most important features of its transformations are the acquisition of features of national identity, the desire to integrate into the European and world educational systems with the maximum preservation of its identity, modernization of content filling. The analysis and generalization of historical-pedagogical sources gave grounds to determine the main stages and tendencies of higher education development in Ukraine. We used socio-political transformations, socio-economic factors and pedagogical concepts as the basis for defining the periods and, as a result, identified the following periods: I period (1991-2000) – formation of the higher education system in Ukraine; II period (2000-2005) – development in the context of stages and continuity; III period (2005-2014) – development in the context of the realities of the Bologna Declaration; IV period (2014-2019) – transformation of higher education. The materials of the conducted research allow us to characterize the selected periods. For the successful implementation of the processes of modernization of the educational sphere, legal regulation of this sphere becomes significant, which becomes a real tool for the development of national education. Since Ukraine’s independence, the higher education system has undergone significant transformations. Gradually, the legal framework of higher education of Ukraine was formed, educational trends were determined on the basis of national achievements and European experience.
