The purpose of the article is to consider possible ways to improve the effectiveness of student-oriented education in Russian universities through strategic interaction with the basic principles of their life. It is well known that the involvement of students in the management of higher education institutions (HEIs), their active participation in determining the individual trajectories of their professional training increases the motivation of students, and therefore the quality of education. To do this, it is necessary not only to fix the principles of student self-government in the local regulations of the University, but also to build mechanisms for implementing these principles. In particular, this can be expressed in the structure and content of educational programs developed in accordance with educational standards, consisting of a mandatory part and a part formed by participants in educational relations. Project-based learning will help bridge the gap between theory and practice in teaching students. Inclusive education should be provided not only with infrastructure, but also with special training of teachers and the inclusion of specialized adaptation modules in educational programs. To ensure quality control of students ' knowledge, the professional level of teachers and the organization of the educational process, intra-University quality management systems for training specialists are being created.an important element of this system should also be the structure of student self-government. It is also necessary to understand that student-oriented learning is not limited to the educational process, but covers the organization of campus life, the possibility of self-realization of students in various public organizations, in creative teams, i.e. it is inextricably linked to the entire system of principles, goals, priorities - the Living Values of the University. In the context of improving the competitiveness of education in Russian universities, the article identifies and justifies ways to improve the effectiveness of student-oriented learning. In particular, there was a high demand for the possibility of students influence on their individual learning paths, self-realization through participation in projects, both in the educational process and in public life. The research uses the results of sociological research based on surveys of students and teachers, including online surveys, as well as the practice of organizing the educational process and extracurricular activities in Russian universities. The results obtained can be used to further improve the development strategies of higher education institutions, including to increase their attractiveness for foreign students.

The article assesses the availability of demographic education in Russian universities based on the analysis of information posted on the websites of educational programs of higher education institutions included in the rating of top 100 ranking best universities in the Russian Federation, compiled by the research company RAEX-Analytics LLC in 2019. Universities are grouped according to their profile, specialization and geographical location. Monitoring of educational programs is presented in terms of educational levels and directions. The study revealed that 75% of Russian universities, included in the sample, have demographic disciplines in their educational programs. Demographic education is most developed in multidisciplinary universities. Demographic disciplines are included in almost all educational programs for training in the area of "Sociology". It is concluded that there is an inequality in the availability of demographic education, since it is more concentrated in the cities of Moscow, St. Petersburg as well as in the cities of the Volga Federal District. In addition, there were found out such distortions in the development of demographic education as lack of instrumental disciplines and weak inclusion of demographic disciplines in economic programs. As a result of the research, there are given recommendations aimed at expanding the range of students studying demography, forming of continuity in educational programs for bachelor's and master's degrees, and including demographic disciplines of an instrumental nature in them. The authors believe that the expansion of interaction between universities and local authorities in training specialists will contribute to development of demographic education.
