This article discusses the issue of systematization of international joint programmes in higher education. The authors analyze the criteria for differentiating between various types of international joint programmes. In particular, the authors propose to distinguish between international double degree programmes and dual degree programmes. Different classifications of international joint programmes are substantiated through the analysis of successful experience of their implementation in Russia and abroad in the context of globalization and international educational integration. The article also gives ground to the general criteria of the effectiveness of the implementation of various types of joint educational programmes. It is concluded that the systematization of international joint programmes will allow to avoid confusing terminology, and considering the fact such programmes are developed and implemented by universities with different backgrounds from different regions of the world, sometimes even from different education systems, this approach will greatly simplify academic cooperation between universities of different countries in the context of cultural differences and particular features of different national legislative regulations. Considering the different types of joint international programmes and the practice of their implementation in universities, the authors proceed from the fact that all these programmesrepresent effective ways of creating a single European higher education area, an important tool for implementing the principles of the Bologna process. Regarding the task of improving the competitiveness of universities that implement international joint programmes, the article also identifies the significant benefits for students acquiring specific intercultural, communicative, as well as interdisciplinary professional competencies and, respectively, advantages in employment, both in their own country and abroad.

The article analyzes the issues of creating and implementing international joint educational programmes as a mandatory element for internationalization of all aspects of university activities. The participation of Russian universities in the Bologna process and in the formation of the European Higher Education Area allowed them not only to expand the scale of cooperation with leading foreign universities, but also to gain valuable practical experience in organizing joint educational activities in the framework of international educational programmes leading students to obtain degrees from several universities. The article examines in detail the readiness of Russian universities to implement such programmes, as well as the attitude of employers in Russia towards them. Speaking of the need to increase the competitiveness of Russian universities, the development of international joint programmes is revealed through the prism of exporting educational services to other countries. It is concluded that, studying in international joint programmes, students generate unique skills that are in demand in the international labor market, owing to their development by innovative approaches in the field of higher education through international inter-university cooperation in the field of education. The article also demonstrates the experience of Lobachevsky University in implementing international cooperation with foreign universities, which can be used by other Russian universities in the creation and implementation of international joint programmes.

This chapter looked at the implications of Brexit on the recruitment of international faculty, students, and the ability to obtain research funding. Higher education stakeholders have legitimate concerns regarding the impact of the UK's separation from the EU. In preemptive moves, students are transferring to institutions outside the UK and EU to universities that are welcoming and accommodating the special needs and circumstances of international scholars. Researchers are prematurely dissolving collaborative partnerships with colleagues to mitigate complications and lost funding expected, as a result of Brexit. There are universities exploring possible locations for new satellite campuses in other countries. Through the development of policies and treaties such as the Bologna Process, Lisbon Strategy, European Higher Education in the World initiative, the European Union has demonstrated the importance and purpose of higher education both in Europe and at the international level.

The process of globalization acquires the greatest importance in today’s world. The ongoing technological changes, the rise of the knowledge economy and the growth of skill requirements in the labor market have influenced the changes in the landscape of education throughout the world. The emergence of Bologna Process has facilitated the creation of the European Higher Education Area, which can be assumed as a sample of uniformity of the European system of higher education. The Bologna Process is focused on the following strategies: modernization of higher education; connection and creation of national, regional and global educational spaces; enhancement of the attractiveness and competitiveness of the EHEA. The implementation of these strategies implies innovative processes, which build an awareness of traditions and raise a world-wide importance and attractiveness of the Bologna process.

The Bologna Process

The article deals with the theoretical analysis of the problem of internationalization of higher education in the context of introducing reforms of the Bologna process in the European region and, in particular, in Ukraine; the historical periods of formation of the internationalization of higher education from the moment of the first European universities emerged; it was determined that universities at their institutional level are important participants in internationalization and, in accordance with local specifics, their understanding of the objectives of ensuring the quality of education and development priorities must develop their own strategies for internationalization; on the example of the Grinchenko University it is substantiated that the development of the institutional strategy of internationalization is one of the key priorities of the development of university education in Ukraine. Modern information and communication technologies, the rapid development of distance learning, the growing popularity of Internet universities form a single world educational market in which higher education institutions from different countries of the world, without restricting themselves national borders, offer their services in conditions of strict international competition. The processes of Ukraine’s integration into the world educational space, in particular its accession to the Bologna Process, determine the creation of a competitive sphere of Ukrainian higher education. The urgency of the problem of internationalization, which reflects the idea of openness of education and science in the world and has significant modernizing potential, lays the foundation for its scientific reflection on the integration into the national context of the best international standards of higher education quality. These imperatives should serve as a guideline for the institutional strategy of internationalization as a key priority for the development of university education in Ukraine in order to increase the competitiveness of Ukrainian higher education institutions and their integration into the European educational space.

The Impact

Two decades have passed from the Sorbonne Declaration in 1999 to the present day, a period of time in which we have witnessed the great changes that have occurred in higher education systems in many countries of the world, specifically the countries belonging to the European Higher Education Area (EHEA).Four countries started by signing the 1999 Declaration, today there are already forty-eight countries involved in the EHEA.In this article, a tour of the milestones that have been shaping and kneading the EHEA is made, addressing the most relevant issues addressed in the different meetings of the ministers of higher education. Next, we will stop at one of the most relevant indicators of the EHEA: the quality assurance systems that, because of the Bologna Process, have been deployed both at the supranational and national levels. We will make an overview of the implementation of educational quality in the countries. Finally, we will reflect on the impact that the perspective of educational quality has had in the countries of the European Higher Education Area.

The “Bologna process” has become a highly used idiom by all kinds of people who do not know what exactly it involves. They are unaware of its prerequisites and the correct way to measure its positive and/or negative consequences. Thus, this chapter explains the context of the Bologna reasoning as well as briefly expressing its content. It explores whether the harmonization of the European Educational Systems proposed and agreed on by nations is a fad or a real necessity, taking into consideration the actual evolution of the world. This is done by means of computerized simulation. The simulation tool is provided by TRUE-WORLD System Dynamics Software. In the end, some recommendations for a more efficient achievement of Bologna objectives are provided.

The Bologna Process

The integration processes, which take place in the world community in all spheres of the human activity have a great influence on the system of higher education. During this period, the common European education space is formed, which expressed particularly through harmonization of education standards, approaches, curricula, and specialties in different countries of the world. The open educational space provides for the increasing of student mobility and co-operation of university lecturers from different countries, which should help to improve the university graduates’ employment system and increase the status of these countries in the field of education. Academic mobility is one of the areas of the Bologna Process, which ensures the integrity of the European Higher Education Area and the European Research Area. At the same time the European space means not only the space of the states of the European Union. This space covers the territories of all member states of the Bologna Process. The course for the development of academic mobility is enshrined in almost all major documents governing the Bologna process. They note that the academic mobility of students, researchers and lecturers allows its participants to take advantage of European educational values (Prague Communiqué of Ministers of Education 2001), which forms the basis for the formation of the European Higher Education Area (Berlin Communiqué 2003), is an essential element of the Bologna process, which creates the new opportunities for personal growth, development of cooperation between people and institutions (London Communiqué 2007), etc. It is very important to find out how much our country is involved in the process of academic exchanges and international cooperation in the field of education, especially with European countries, as far as the international academic mobility is an important factor in the process of European integration.

While the Bologna Process in Europe is the leading example, regional efforts towards harmonization of higher education are taking place in every corner of the world. In Africa, such a process has its roots from decades ago, although more coordinated activities are only recent phenomena. This paper looks back at the harmonization processes in Africa and Europe, and argues that although the process in Africa has been influenced by its European counterpart, the former has its own unique features, among other things, in its thematic and sub-regional initiatives. The paper notes similarities and differences between the two processes, appreciates the strengths and shortcomings of the African process, and highlights the importance for the African Union to more effectively utilize its leverage as a coordinating body, with a wider and more meaningful involvement of higher education institutions and other stakeholders. It also calls for more exploration into the potential strengths and risks in harmonization initiatives strongly rooted at sub-regional level.Received: 06 March 2018 Accepted: 04 May 2018 Published online: 31 May 2018

The relevance of the study is due to the fact that current globalization trends contribute to the formation of the world education area, and further steps in this direction require taking into account the achievements of recognized leaders of knowledge society and other countries seeking to join them in reforming national education systems. Based on the analysis of normative documents, statistical materials and reports, current research of modern scientists, the experience of modernization of higher education in Ukraine and Central Asia in the direction of integration into the world, especially European, educational space is determined by their national interests and desire to expand cooperation with Europe and the world in general. A comparative analysis of the experience of implementing the principles of the Bologna Process, involvement in international educational programs and projects shows that these partner countries, united by a common socialist past, although are not members of the European Union, but are considered strategic partners. It is argued that Ukraine and Kazakhstan followed the path of official entering the Bologna Process (which contributed to improving the efficiency and quality of higher education, expanding the market of educational services for applicants and labor markets for graduates), while Kyrgyzstan, Uzbekistan and Tajikistan only partially changed their direction, which was declared at the state level. Turkmenistan, on the other hand, remains closed and conservative. It has been found that common to all countries is the need to systematically improve the quality of higher education, further update the entire education system (organizational, methodological, personnel), taking into account globalization and integration trends, which can contribute to further active cooperation with European Union countries, including within the framework of international programs (Erasmus, Tempus, Jean Monnet, etc.).
