- Abstract
This paper focuses on the solution of the problem of leadership in higher education in Ukraine from the viewpoint of European educational dimension. It is not a secret that no one of Ukrainian universities is indexed in the list of the best world’s or European higher educational establishments. The reasons for such a situation are in the quality of our education which leaves much to be desired, poor material base and absence of modern equipment, obsolete text books, traditional post-soviet approaches to teaching and many others. Having analysed the main reasons for the drawbacks in Ukrainian higher educational system, the paper proposes a variant of changing the situation for better. In order to come from massive education characteristic for Ukraine to qualitative higher education it is necessary to change the attitude to learning in the society. Students and their parents should understand that not a diploma, but real knowledge and practical skills play the most important role on the labour market. It is also necessary to refuse from reproductive learning and come to the development of students’ creative thinking. Transition from lecture-seminar organization of the academic process to tutorial system will help improve the university educators’ qualification and give a chance to every student to become an active participant of the academic process. Implementation of dual education on the basis of cooperation of the university and business structures will help graduates to faster adapt to real practical activity. Parallel development of the teaching process and scientific research activity of students and educators is necessary for bettering the quality of education. Certain steps towards the leadership in Ukrainian education are described on the example of Petro Mohyla Black Sea National University, which is ranked among the best in the south of Ukraine.
