the level of financing are analyzed by Vlasyuk T. [22].
Analysis of the new Higher Education Law (2014), description of
defeats, successes, and prospects for the higher education development
in Ukraine are highlighted in [12]. The reform of the higher education
system in Ukraine is analyzed by Nikolaev E. and Dluhopolskij O. [13].
Shandruk S. and Shatrova Zh. [17] investigate challenges detaining the
education reforms in Ukraine. They consider alignment of the Higher
Education Law of Ukraine with the
Bologna Process as a way of
integration into the European HE Area.
Averianova I. and Chochlova T. [1] argue that although the first
stage of Ukrainian HE integration into the EU educational system is
complete, it brought mostly negative results and has not provided
expected improvement of education quality. They state that HEIs should
modernize content and methods of education. Hrynkevych O. and
Lutchyn N. [9] investigate the problems of internationalization in
Ukrainian HE in the context of innovative development.
Bąk M. [2] suggests that in Eastern
Europe declining status and
prestige of the teaching profession and still existing huge hierarchic and
administrative educational structures hold back progress in education.
Still he recommends using Polish and Czech experience for modernizing
Ukrainian HE and states that high quality education is crucial from the
perspective of demography, unemployment and migration problems in
the country. Furiv U. [6] investigates how the Ukrainian HEIs have been
impacted by and coping with the political
and economic crisis the
country has been undergoing since 2014.
Majority of foreign scientists believe that corruption in the Ukrainian
HE is the biggest obstacle for its development. Osipian Ar. [14] affirms
that corruption in Ukrainian HE undermines quality and credentials of
academic degrees received and constrains country‟s sustainable
economic growth, but modernization of modes of teaching, and
curriculum, and development of university autonomy may help to
restrain corruption. In his later work [15] he states that it is difficult for
Ukrainian HE to adapt to recent free market
challenges because of
corruption and lack of university autonomy, even though internal
pressures, financial integrity and marketization of educational services,
changing organizational and managerial structures of HEIs are forcing
the system to change. Vasylyeva A. and Merkle Or. [21] show the grave
extent of corruption in Ukrainian HEI
and identifies three most
prevalent corruption schemes: at the stage of entering a university, in
grade attainment throughout all years of education, and administrative

corruption. For combating corruption they propose: further research;

transparency in the HEIs; information campaigns and
