At present, profound changes are taking place in the system of higher education in Russia: goals, strategies, objectives and content of education, as well as the ways of organizing the educational process, are radically changing. One of the priority areas ensuring the transformation of the higher education system is the introduction of network educational programs. The study of the methodological foundations of their design is relevant and necessary today. The research problem: characteristics of network educational programs and methodological foundations of their design to ensure maximum flexibility of the educational trajectory within the framework of network interaction. The purpose of the research is determination of the methodology for constructing effective network educational programs, based on the formation of the student's personality and his practical preparation for future professional activity through individual development. The research methods are critical analysis of pedagogical, psychological and regulatory sources, design, modeling, systematization. The results of the research: changes in the technological, substantive and technical plan in the design of educational programs have been analyzed, the necessity of technological elaboration of psychological and pedagogical support of the educational process has been substantiated for the flexibility of educational programs and the development of individual learning paths; building a competence model of a specialist and strengthening practical training in the implementation of projectbased modular training in the format of network educational programs have been emphasized; the role of motivational behavior of students and teachers has been determined; the principles of network learning have been formulated; the experience of designing and implementing network educational programs at RANEPA and VAVT have been analyzed. Key findings: network education and introduction of flexible educational programs have defined a new methodological platform and architecture for higher education. The analysis of fundamental changes in personal, behavioral and cognitive development of modern youth under the influence of electronic media and their accounting will allow educational organizations of the higher education system to innovatively approach the development of content, learning technologies and to develop new criteria for assessing the quality of education at a university. Designing flexible educational programs in a network format based on the studied methodology provides an opportunity for Russian universities to develop a networked format of education effectively, increase the academic mobility of students and teachers, provide flexibility in the educational path of learning, and significantly raise the prestige of Russian education in the global educational space.

The vector of competence approach in professional formation of specialists poses to the higher education of Ukraine the question of the quality of future teachers’ preparation, the examination of which should become the professional competencies of the graduate student. The psychological competencies of the teacher require specification of the application of psychological knowledge in relation to a number of interactions that mediate the educational process and activity of a teacher. It is logical for the society to expect that the basic psychological competences of the future teacher should be acquired at the stage of primary professionalization in the educational institution which prepares teachers. Structurally normative psychological training of future teachers is indirectly reflected in the scope of teaching and distribution of teaching hours of psychological disciplines, in their content and structuring in different training courses, the ratio of classroom hours and independent work of the student in the discipline. The purpose of the work is to summarize the educational tendencies in the content of the curricula of psychological training of future teachers in the higher education system. The main results were obtained through the methods of analysis of curricula for the preparation of mathematics teachers of bachelor level in different higher education institutions of Ukraine in the context of: the volume of academic hours of disciplines of psychological cycle and their content representation; studying trends in the ratio of different forms of classroom training and their share in the general and practical training of specialists. The analysis of ten-year curricula and programs of psychological disciplines showed a variety of volumes of study of psychological disciplines, a tendency to decrease its academic hours, a reduction in the number of ECTS credits and reduction of the applied content component of developmental, pedagogical, social psychology and psychological foundations of family life. There is a certain tendency to decrease the quota of classroom study of psychological disciplines and increase the volume of students’ independent work. The lack of approved national professional standard for the teaching profession makes it difficult to include applied psychological disciplines in teacher training plans designed to ensure the formation of professional psychological competencies of future educators.

This paper introduces the framework conditions of the internationalization process of the higher education system in Germany and gives an overview of the implementation of international Master’s programmes in engineering education and the characteristics of student migrants in this field of studies. Developments on the macro-level clearly indicate political interest to attract more international students for German universities and the technical disciplines in Germany are already very successful in this endeavour. With a special focus on higher education reforms in engineering, this paper is based on an investigation directed at the meso-level, the motivations and strategies at the level of university and faculties for establishing such international study programmes. The results of a qualitative study will be presented that was conducted at the engineering faculties of the Ruhr-Universität in Bochum between December 2014 and August 2015. With the overall aim of investigating in how far the decisions made on university and faculty levels are related to the general political endeavors to attract international talent, the different stakeholders’ interests and implementation strategies such as language policy were considered.

The article covers the main tasks and problems of the current reform of the higher education system of the state and the process of educational and practical training of geographer students, namely, at the Odessa I. I. Mechnikov National University. The system of measures to form geographer students’ readiness for future professional and practical activities at a secondary high school is analyzed. At the bachelor's level, the system includes the study of the disciplines of the normative part (humanities, socio-economic and natural sciences and vocational training) and vocational-oriented disciplines of specialization of students, the passing of educational and production practices final state certification with protection of qualification work and passing of state examination in specialty and specialization. The master's level includes the study of the disciplines of normative (humanitarian, socio-economic, natural science and vocational training) and selective (vocational-oriented disciplines) parts, the passage of industrial practices and final state certification (writing and defense of master's work). Emphasis is placed on the particular importance of the current educational and practical independence and self-activity of students and their independent work (self-education) in deepening the results of learning and formation, and improvement of professional and practical competences and skills. The article does not exhaust the problem of forming the readiness of geography students for the future professional and pedagogical activity in secondary and higher education. In the future, we consider it necessary to continue the analysis of the process of formation of professional and innovative pedagogical competence of geographers of higher education institutions, and geographers of Odessa I.I. Mechnikov National University in particular.

In his Address to the Federal Assembly on January 15, 2020, the President of Russia set the task “to enable students after their second year to choose a new direction or program of study, including related professions”. Solving this problem requires transformation of the higher education system in Russia. Discussion has arisen in the educational community about the ways of this transformation. One of the possible options was the transfer of Russian education to the American Liberal Arts system. In order to verify the feasibility of using the Liberal Arts system for the training of engineers, a comparative study was carried out. As a result, it was concluded that proposals to replace the Russian system of higher education with the American Liberal Arts system for engineering education are not relevant, because the main basic goals and principles of building these systems coincide and the existing differences are due to the specifics of engineering activities.

More than four hundred study programmes are registered in Lithuanian higher education institutions for undergraduate level, and the same number for postgraduate studies. Any demand of a labour market cannot substantiate such an abundance of programmes. Some details of the previous mechanism of financing universities had stipulated the increase of the number. Sickness of the abundance is characteristic of the civil engineering subject area as well. In Table 1 there are listed all the programmes in this subject area: 12 different programmes for undergraduate, 10 for Master, and 5 for specialised professional studies. Some very specialised names of programmes make us suppose the programmes are for non-university studies. Basic (undergraduate), Master and Doctoral studies make a consistent system of Lithuanian civil engineering higher education. Specialised one-year professional postgraduate study programmes do not fit to the system, they have been provoked by a wrong image of inferiority of undergraduate programmes. Similar subjects are included into both undergraduate and “professional” study programmes (examples are presented in Table 2). The title of Dipl Eng could be justified if it would be awarded by any professional body, not by universities. If it is necessary to lengthen duration of civil engineering education, it is better to substitute the four-year undergraduate programmes for five-year ones. Binary higher education system is coming to Lithuania, non-university study programmes and higher education institutions (colleges) will be introduced. Civil engineering study programmes fitting for this new higher education sector should be selected. Almost all the civil engineering programmes consist of very small courses (mostly of two-three credits), and six-seven subjects are studied every term. It is reasonable to shorten the term list up to five subjects, not more. Some efforts of civil engineers are directed to creating a common European higher education area according to the Sorbonne and Bologna declarations [3, 4]. The European Union Civil Engineering Education and Training Thematic Network Project (EUCEET) has a task to elaborate common requirements of curriculum, quality assessment and mutual recognition of the higher education.
