Criteria for evaluating the effectiveness of ecosystems in the educational activities of technical universities

the purpose of the study is to analyze the ecosystem approach in the activities of higher education institutions and identify the features of their development, to determine criteria for evaluating educational ecosystems of universities. Methods: the methods used in the presented study are the method of analyzing scientific literature, articles, studies, and statistical data. Results: the study analyzes the features of university ecosystems, defines criteria for evaluating the effectiveness of ecosystems in technical universities. Conclusions: university ecosystems play an important role in the development of higher education and innovation. The development of university ecosystems contributes to improving the scientific reputation of the university, its financial stability, and attracting new students and staff. The ecosystems of universities are developing, and this requires a rapid response to market demands and the increasing speed of technological innovation. With the increasing demand for qualified personnel in engineering specialties, the role of technical universities is increasing. It is important to choose the right parameters and criteria for assessing the ecosystem of the university in order to determine what needs to be improved and developed. Advanced engineering schools are being created on the basis of technical universities in partnership with high-tech companies, which implement training programs for engineers with further employment. A proper and timely assessment of the effectiveness of the educational ecosystem will allow it to be developed in accordance with the goals of the university.
