This is a comparative analysis of higher education systems in Ecuador and Bolivia, countries that are characterized by cultural diversity and geographic proximity; its evolution in the higher education system has progressed in recent years with different rate.  Reason given, the aim of this work is to make a comparison, to understand the similarities and differences between the systems of higher education in Ecuador and Bolivia, and thus, we can have a diagnosis in relation to the structure of the higher education system of both countries. In this context, we provide an overview about the situation or reality in which both institutions of Higher Education (IES) are developed. Also, the aspects that distinguish the higher education in these countries such as their regulations are mentioned, their internal political contexts, resources, segments, management, technological evolution; and the change of the political, economic and social model. In this way, a description of the main features of the Ecuadorian and Bolivian higher education systems is made, which is summarized in a comparative chart showing the similarities and differences that characterizes them.

‘Global patterns of higher education’ looks at the different types of education system globally. Although virtually every country has its own national higher education system, and each of these national systems has its own peculiarities (and most national systems contain considerable variations within them), scholars of higher education have defined a number of system types: the Humboldtian model, which emphasizes the integration of teaching and research; the ‘Napoleonic’ model of France; the Anglo-Saxon model; the US’s Ivy League and intensive research model; and an emerging Confucian model in Asia. The relationship between the state and the university and college is also considered along with the Bologna Process of international convergence.

The article deals with the issues of integration of individual national educational systems and the formation of a single Eurasian educational space. The purpose of the article is to assess the degree of readiness of the national higher education systems of the Eurasian Economic Union (EAEU) member states for consistent integration. The assessment was conducted employing the tools of mathematical statistics. At the first stage, the authors formalized the national education system parameters in the form of a scorecard. At the second stage of the study, a comparative analysis of educational systems was carried out based on enlarged groups of quantitative and qualitative indicators. To conduct a comparative analysis of educational systems the authors used comparative logical, descriptive, and cluster analysis methods. According to the analysis results, Armenia and Belarus turned out to be the countries, most close to each other in terms of the totality of qualitative and quantitative indicators of national higher education systems. The conducted analysis allows concluding that Belarus can integrate with other countries most easily. Armenia is ranked the second country capable of such integration. Kazakhstan and Kyrgyzstan are in the third and fourth places, respectively. According to the results of the cluster analysis, Russia has shown a minimal degree of integration of the higher education system with other EAEU countries, as it is the leader in terms of several qualitative and quantitative indicators. The authors have empirically proved that the EAEU member states have similar approaches to the organization of the higher education system and can hypothetically be united into a single educational cluster within a single Eurasian educational space.

In The Higher Education System , Burton Clark provides a model for the organisational analysis of higher education institutions and systems. Central to the model are the concepts of knowledge, beliefs and authority. In particular, Clark examines how different interest groups both inside and outside the university shape and subvert the management of change. Within the university, Clark notes the tensions between the 'enterprise' and the 'discipline' and at the system level between the state authority, the market and the academic oligarchy. In considering the applicability of Clark's model to an understanding of today's higher education systems and institutions, one can note a weakening of boundaries both within higher education institutions and between them and other institutions of society. Arguably, there has been a lessening of the organisational distinctiveness of universities and an invasion by the language and ideas of the business world. The broadening of the social functions of modern higher education systems may be one of the reasons why academic authority seems to be subject to greater external challenge. Nevertheless, much of Clark's analytic model remains highly relevant to our understanding of higher education systems and institutions even if their empirical manifestations have changed over the intervening years. Clark's model shares much in common with a more recent analysis of the changing relationship between higher education and society conducted as part of a recent project of the European Science Foundation, although changes in emphasis and in authority relationships are also revealed.

The urgency of the article is due to the increased impact of information and communication technologies on research in the field of socio-humanitarian cycle sciences, which led to the emergence of interdisciplinary direction of research and projects – Digital Humanities, increasing socially important digital content (electronic collections, archives, libraries, museums) and the need for training specialists for this area of activity. The author relies on the main provisions of the publications by V. Kopanieva, T. Yaroshenko, S. Chukanova, O. Oliinyk, and Manifesto for the Digital Humanities. The purpose of the paper is to analyze the experience of preparing specialists in Library Science and Information Sciences (LIS) in the interdisciplinary Master’s Degree Programs in Digital Humanities in Canada and determining the prospects for introducing such programs in Ukraine. The author uses the systematic approach to determining the prospects of training specialists in Digital Humanities for libraries, educational institutions, museums, archives, and other cultural institutions. Methods of analysis of literary sources and information resources, content analysis of university sites in Canada, comparative analysis of educational programs Digital Humanities are applied. The University of Alberta (Edmonton, Canada) was selected as the main research object, where the 3-year Interfaculty Educational Program upon Digital Humanities and the Master of Science in Library and Information Research (MLIS) is offered by the Digital Humanities Program and the Library for Information Studies School. The comparative analysis of the contents of the Interfaculty Educational Program upon Digital Humanities at the University of Alberta and the educational and professional program on Information, Library and Archives Management at Borys Grinchenko Kyiv University stimulated the decision to develop a new specialization in Digital Humanities for undergraduate Master’s program students in Ukraine. Digital Humanities combine information and communication methods and theories with research and teaching in the field of art and the humanities. The training of specialists in the field of DH is an actual and important task for the higher education system in Ukraine, and the experience of universities in Canada can be extremely useful.

Education is considered as one of the main pillars of society. An educated society leads the development of a nation. Education is also one of the areas which is also strongly influenced by it and social change. The fact that the educational systems are in permanent change does not show instability. But rather on the other side, they serve to better adapt the society which is changing. Starting from the beginning the education system in Albania has experienced changes after the collapse of the communist system and the approach of society to these changes has been a sensitive issue. These changes were not very studied, since they were in a very unfavorable environments, in which our education system came from a widespread politicization, and they did not always have the right fruits which was often perceived by us as experiments. These changes have not passed without debate, not only by academics, but also by students and civil society. Methodology: The work is based on a comparative analysis over these three decades, relying also on INSTAT’s statistical data.Main results: In this paper, I will show the transformation of the higher education system and how today the Law on Higher Education after three years of implementation has encountered a number of problems where the state and universities are moving from one to the other and finally that those who suffer the consequences of this law are the Albanian young who are not finding themselves in the Albanian market.

Since gaining independence, Kazakhstan has been carrying out active reforms in the field of higher education. This, in turn, led to a systematic policy of transition to a market economy. The research work will include the current state of the higher education sector in Kazakhstan and further development provided for by the Bologna process. In the course of the study, several typologies will be identified to visualize how the education system in Kazakhstan has revolutionized. Analytical methods, such as pie charts and graphs, are also used to analyze research data. The study discusses the need to improve the quality of human capital by improving and modernizing the higher education system. Domestic higher education plays a vital role in the professional training of competent and globally competitive specialists for all sectors of the economy of Kazakhstan.

Система высшего образования развивается не в изоляции. Она находится в непосредственной зависимости от школьной системы и от рынка труда. С одной стороны, образовательные результаты, полученные в университете, зависят от уровня знаний и навыков, которые получили студенты на предыдущем этапе образования, с другой стороны, ожидаемое высокое качество жизни, которое является ключевой мотивацией для поступления в вуз для большинства населения, определяется состоянием и структурой рынка труда. Именно наличие спроса на продуктивную рабочую силу определяет результативность системы высшего образования. The higher education system does not develop in isolation. It is directly dependent on the school system and the labor market. On the one hand, the educational results obtained at the University depend on the level of knowledge and skills that students received at the previous stage of education, on the other hand, the expected high quality of life, which is a key motivation for entering the University for the majority of the population, is determined by the state and structure of the labor market. It is the demand for productive labor that determines the effectiveness of the higher education system.
