The paper considers the specifics of research in the field of academic integrity in the works of researchers in the United States of America. The main purpose of the paper is to describe the peculiarities of the interpretation of the concept of honesty as a component of the value basis of academic integrity in the papers of US researchers. The main sources of information on the issue of integrity in the research of scientists in the United States in the context of academic integrity are both scientific papers and case studies and various informational resources and manuals for students on the issue of integrity and ethics. In the works of scholars the research question is considered in philosophical and educational contexts. One of the key issues is also the opposition of the concepts of "honesty" - "dishonesty", which allows us to offer a convenient in terms of practical application of the definition, and take into account the main aspects of the problem. Along with the study of the concept of honesty, there is also the concept of "honest behavior" and the opposite "dishonest behavior". Teachers in higher education institutions in the United States receive significant resource and methodological support, which helps to involve them in the process of forming values of the academic environment, in particular, taking into account the priority of academic integrity. An important source of information about academic dishonesty for students is special manuals and codes of conduct for students, which are mostly posted on the websites of educational institutions. The information provided in such sources highlights the rights and responsibilities of students and educators, and serves as a guide. Quite interesting is the approach of American scientists to the prevention of academic dishonesty, which is based on modeling the profiles of "academically honest student" and "academically dishonest student." The scientific understanding of the issue is mostly based on the activity approach. Taking into account the specifics of educational activities, theoretical models of honest and dishonest behavior are formed, in accordance with these models, recommendations are created for participants in the educational process. As the prospects for further studies we can mention the research aimed at adapting the scientific achievements of US researchers for implementation in the system of educational work in educational institutions of Ukraine.

The aim is to identify the trends in multichannel funding of universities in the regions, which creates the conditions for the integration of educational and research activities, and summarize the experience of universities that have created strategic academic units (SAUs) as one of the forms of integrating science and higher education. Based on the statistical analysis of financial receipts to universities from various sources in 2015 and 2019 (form VPO_2), the trends and structure of the funding distribution by type of educational and research activities in the regions of the Russian Federation were compared. It has been revealed that educational activities dominate in universities, accounting for about 70% of all income, and research activities 12–13%. Regional cases of the universities (ITMO, NNU, TSU, NSU, SFU) were analyzed. They integrated science and education in the form of SAUs. The cases were prepared on the basis of a content analysis of roadmaps for the period 2016–2020, interviews, and other open information. The analysis has showed that the organizational model of each SAU is created on the basis of the uniqueness and competitiveness of the university’s scientific and educational specialization by mechanisms that ensure the integration of the educational process and research activities through the involvement of students, graduate students in research and innovative projects. It is concluded that the flexibility and versatility of training programs and research at the university in the SAU format is formed in cooperation with many participants in regional innovation systems, which leads to the demand for its services by enterprises in the regions of the European part of the country and Siberia. The synergy of educational, research and innovation activities is achieved within the framework of both one university and through its network interaction with other Russian and international universities, scientific organizations, and enterprises. The experience of creating SAUs can be used by regional administrations, corporations in the development of world-class scientific and educational centers within the framework of the Science national project and national research and flagship universities of the strategic academic leadership program.
