Full Abstract:

Globalization process in XXI century requires more common space in higher education field. Access to equal education rights for everyone is vital for Russian universities.

There are at least 3 main directions in global higher education:

1.Internationalisation with continually increasing role of English language as a medium for instruction and research. English is globally-recognized language of communication in academic community. In 2014 the NUST MISIS lunched MA and MSc degree programs, taught in English to be more competitive in global educational market.

2.Dramatically growth of students and academics mobility based on common standards and systems of financial support. The Russian Federation joined Bologna Agreement in 2003. The Russian Government launched the Academic Excellence Program, called “5-100 Project,” to make top Russian universities more transparent and open for international students from other countries.

3.Expansion of on-line education as a part of long-life learning paradigm. Education opportunities are offered by the higher education institutions in many ways; from classic “face-to-face” to MOOCs and distant learning methods. In the same time, the today’s phenomenon of life-long lasting learning demonstrates that people are racing to be more educated, thus, more competitive in the market.
