Abstract
the article is devoted to the analysis of the National Education Policy 2020 and its role in the internationalization of higher education in India. The purpose of this study is to identify the main aspects of the internationalization of higher education in the country, which led to its high performance. The methodological base includes content analysis of sources and literature on the topic of the work. The authors conclude that the National Education Policy 2020 is the first national strategic document where internationalization is identified as a priority. NEP 2020 is in line with international trends in the field of educational reform. envisages a complete overhaul of the higher education system to overcome these challenges and provide high-quality higher education by leveraging the experience of top foreign universities, while higher education institutions with autonomy will bring in innovations from world-class universities in curricula, pedagogy, which can significantly improve the quality of education they offer. NEP 2020 moves towards achieving this goal by adopting innovative policies for the country's universities with a globally relevant curriculum in natural and social sciences that will attract a large number of international students. The policy also provides support to those who want to pursue higher education abroad. The recommendations of NEP 2020 will open up new opportunities for the development of international research and cross-border mobility of faculty and students. One of the findings of the study was the conclusion that the historical experience of internationalization of higher education in India, reflecting all the contradictions and complexity of the processes characteristic of a multinational and multi-confessional state, will be of practical value for the development of the Draft Strategy for the Development of the Education System in the Russian Federation until 1936 with a perspective up to 2040.
