Abstract

the article analyzes modern trends in the development of higher education in the USA and Great Britain. The structure of the system, including universities, student body, faculty and administrative staff, is considered. Such analysis allows us to trace the relationship between the organization of the educational process and its qualitative results. Special attention is paid to the positions of universities in international rankings, which serve as an indicator of their competitiveness and reflect the level of integration of national education systems into the global space. An important place is occupied by the study of the transformation of management mechanisms aimed at improving the efficiency of higher education. The legal basis for its activities, which set the institutional framework for development, are also covered. An important aspect is the analysis of funding sources that determine the sustainability and possibilities for modernization of educational institutions.
