“CONCEPTUAL DIRECTIONS OF HIGHER EDUCATION SYSTEM IMPROVEMENT”

Abstract

The article discusses the conceptual directions of improving higher education within the framework of the tasks identified in the Address of the President to the Oliy Majlis on January 24, 2020. To implement one of the tasks set by the President for the formation and development of “Higher Education Without Corruption”, the model “Higher Education” was developed without corruption ”and the ways of its formation are shown. A number of conceptual directions of a radical reform of higher education have been developed. They were based on the introduction of strict discipline in higher education institutions (universities), ensuring the compatibility of theory and practice in the educational process in universities, training based on special orders of entrepreneurs, and solving the problem of commercialization of intellectual property. It was also argued that the structure and order of teaching in the higher education system should be changed, that current programs are mainly preparing to become specialists in order to work in some work establishments, in enterprises and in tomorrow's institutions, and not fully meet today's requirements. The issues of gradual transition of universities to academic and financial independence were also considered
