For several centuries, the mission of the university, original created for the intellectual and cultural development of man, has changed little. The main task of the university is undergoing changes today. The growing antropogical contradiction: the uncertainty of the future, enormous technological variability and existential unpreparedness for this person, contributes to the revision of the university model. The purpose of the article is to develop a pedagogical model of the university that can respond to modern challenges. Methodology. The university always focuses on the future, accepts young people who will develop this future, so the emphasis of modern methodology in the design of educational systems should be “from the future”. This means that it should be based on the reflection of existing phenomena in culture today (see V.S. Stepin). In this work, university models from the late 17th century to the beginning of the 21st century were selected as materials of research in this work and their missions were analyzed. It is concluded that the era influences the formation of the university’s mission, its purpose, goals and methods of education. In particular, classical university education has always been built on three vectors: the vector of the search for the ideal self, the vector of social identification and the vector of cultural identification. In the modern period, the advantage of the vector of socialization over others is increasing. The results of the study. The pedagogical model of education at a modern university is presented. The basis is the thought of M.K. Mamardashvili about a self-fulfilling person and the principles of liberal education: the principle of active independent activity efforts, the principle of a varied educational environment, the principle of volumetric communication, communicativeness and creativity, the principle of reliance on independent learning. Thus, the modern educational environment of the university should be a varied, multi-level, practice-oriented, reflective environment in which 3 educational vectors are concentrated: the search for one’s purpose (idealization), cultural identification and social self-realization. Their combination allows us to overcome the one-sided emphasis of the educational process on socialization. The results of the research may be applied in design and implementation performance of blended learning models or their components in practice of universities.

The article analyzes the significance of Wilhelm von Humboldt’s philosophical ideas about the model of the organization of university education in light of modern challenges. The fundamental ideas of the Humboldt’s project are dis­cussed. The “fictitiousness” of the university as a social institution was the most important advantage of Humboldt's educational strategy. The educational agenda here is not determined by institutional interests, which means that it turns out to be flexible and does not seek to maintain the status quo. At the same time, it is the destruction of “fictitiousness” and the university's establishment as a “real” social institution that becomes one of the most important symptoms of the crisis in the modern academic world. One of the vivid expressions of this crisis is the priority of quantitative indicators of the educational process's effectiveness. The key difference of a modern university is its aspiration for the future. In turn, an appeal to the future turns out to be a pseudo-strategy of the educational process, since the future itself is an unattainable goal. At the same time, Hum­boldt’s project suggested that only in the image of a person does the ultimate goal of education find unlimited development opportunities. The author believes that returning to the “Humboldtian man” can be an important task for university reform in the modern world.

In modern society, there is much concern about training highly qualified specialists in the field of social work. Both higher education institutions that provide this training and the professional community are interested in it. The effectiveness of the social institution activity depends on how the personnel is prepared, what competencies and the level of professionalism it possesses. Equal partnership between educational and professional communities will enable university to respond quickly to changes in the economy and the needs of the market, to train unique specialists according to professional standards. The article highlights the cooperation experience of the Department of Service, Advertising and Social Work of Sholom-Aleichem Priamursky State University with the professional community of social workers. The authors present forms and methods of the organization of social partnership as a necessary condition for training future social workers and experts in social work. Different methods of training highly qualified personnel are also shown. The authors have identified the main trajectories of interaction between the University and the professional community of social workers which are determined by the content of educational standards. They include the formation of the educational programme, the involvement of social workers in the educational process, the provision of employment, postgraduate training of personnel. The article pays special attention to the problems of profiling educational programs at universities in small regions. The authors believe that the narrow definition of educational program specialization is connected with the potential lack of demand for personnel while a shortage in specialists is maintained. The authors consider volunteering as an additional resource for the development of professional competencies in the field of social work and a channel for effective interaction between the University and the professional community.

Современное образование требует модернизации в силу изменяющихся реалий. Оно должно быть более мобильным, качественным, эффективным и результативным. Для внесения действенных изменений в образовательный процесс вуза нужно ясно представлять идеальную картину, что необходимо менять и как правильно это сделать. В данном ключе, по нашему мнению, может быть использован метод моделирования и его вариант - идеализация, которые позволят качественно построить академический процесс и все сопутствующие элементы в соответствии с современными запросами общества и меняющейся действительностью. Мы предлагаем идеальный вариант развития элементов педагогической модели в контексте технического вуза, которые впоследствии могут выступать неким шаблоном и сделать вузовское обучение более результативным. Modern education demands modernization as a result of changing conditions. It must be more mobile, high quality, effective and have good results. For changing the university educational process it is necessary to understand clearly the ideal picture, the changes undertaken, and the ways how to make them. We think that in this case we can use the method of modeling and its variation - idealization that will help to organize the high quality academic process and all the elements in accordance with modern society demands and changing reality. We offer the ideal variant of element development of pedagogical model in the context of a technical university which can represent a certain cliché and make the university education more effective.

Currently, the issue of introducing the means and capabilities of digitalization or a digital system in modern society is becoming relevant, while the term “digitalization” is becoming quite popular. It is assumed that the introduction of new digital tools or platforms will help the organization to gain a leading position in agricultural industry. Digital transformation is primarily associated with a change in the stereotypes of thinking, working methods and company management. However, digital transformation is not just the introduction of digital technologies, it is rather the reengineering of various, including educational, processes based on them. Today, agricultural universities are more than ever interested in uniform rules that allow for the digital transformation of each university individually and accelerate the digital transformation of the university system as a whole. In the process of digital changes in the education system, fundamental changes are supposed in the structure of training and the organization of the educational process, as a result of which the issue of the need to form our own information and educational environment, which will become the basis of the modern digital base of the educational process.

Universities have a crucial role in the modern world. In England, entrance to universities is by nation-wide competition which means English universities have an exceptional influence on schools--a striking theme of the book. This important book first investigates the university as an institution and then tracks the individual on their journey to and through university. In A University Education, David Willetts presents a compelling case for the ongoing importance of the university, both as one of the great institutions of modern society and as a transformational experience for the individual. The book also makes illuminating comparisons with higher education in other countries, especially the US and Germany. Drawing on his experience as UK Minister for Universities and Science from 2010 to 2014, the author offers a powerful account of the value of higher education and the case for more expansion. He covers controversial issues in which he was involved from access for disadvantaged students to the introduction of L9,000 fees. The final section addresses some of the big questions for the future, such as the the relationship between universities and business, especially in promoting innovation.. He argues that the two great contemporary trends of globalisation and technological innovation will both change the university significantly. This is an authoritative account of English universities setting them for the first time in their new legal and regulatory framework.
