Considering current problems of the higher education system in France, a number of problems can be identified. On one hand, the traditional high school encourages the intelligence, the elite formation, the deepening of existing social inequalities. On the other hand, the professional training largely focused on the labor market is expected. The contradiction between supply and demand (a demand for young professionals), the lack of opportunities for career growth at home force young Frenchmen to leave the country, which is the major issue in higher education and French society as a whole. At the same time, the educational immigration to France is increasing. The problems of coexistence of different cultures and worldviews in higher education remain actual. Such problems as "difficult" neighborhoods and employment among young people, their professional, cultural orientation, changing attitudes towards the teaching profession are important, too. The article contains the analysis of current trends and prospects of higher education, as well as of the policy being pursued by the government towards the young generation. The estimation of the present state of higher school by well known French sociologists – experts in the field of youth policy (Olivier Galland, François Dubet and others) is presented in the paper. The analogy with problems of the Russian higher education system, in particular higher commercial schools, is noticed. Fighting for youth remains the main theme in modern France. The social climate in the country may be improved by means of the young peoples' “remobilization”, using their dynamism, their knowledge and educational level which is one of the highest in Europe. The creation of prospects for self-realization at home (better conditions for an entrepreneurial activity and a political career etc.) may be considered as an alternative to the departure of young people abroad.

Following the 1952 revolution, the Egyptian higher education system grew rapidly, with post-secondary institutes complementing the expanding university system. Private post-secondary institutes were permitted from 1970; in the early 1990s financial constraints and pressures for cost recovery prompted legislation allowing private universities. In the face of expansion, diversification, and partial privatization, concerns have arisen about equity in higher education opportunities. The 2014 Survey of Young People in Egypt is used to examine correlates of higher education track placement and of sector placement within tracks.

The Prestige

The problem of transformation of the higher education system in the Russian Federation in terms of developing scientific and pedagogical potential is quite acute. Copying the Bologna system without adapting to the Russian reality led to the formation of destructive consequences for the system of reproduction of scientific and pedagogical personnel of the country. Negative trends in the number of higher education institutions, demographic waves accompanied by a decrease in the number of students, changing market requirements for the value of higher education and its formalization have led to a reduction in the need for research and teaching staff. Among other things, the prestige of the higher school teaching profession has significantly decreased in society, which has become an additional factor for reducing the interest of talented young people in the teaching profession, and without the influx of talented creative personnel into the research environment, the country's human resources potential in general also falls, as well as its innovative potential. Many scientists negatively assess the reformation in the higher education system of the Russian Federation, focusing on criticism of changes that forced higher school teachers to work to achieve rating indicators, rather than developing their own intellectual potential and teaching. They negatively assess the Western experience in implementing generalized education standards, which, first, in Russia were not adapted to the country's original culture, and secondly, led not to solving problems in the higher education system, but to their aggravation.
