%X The research of the development of higher education is conditioned by the difficult modern state of education in Ukraine. In modern world, education has become one of the most extensive areas of human activity. The debate over the correct choice of the higher education development at the present stage of human existence is being continued. This is due to the fact that society has entered a new phase of evolution associated with computerization, globalization and the achievements of scientific and technological progress. The answer to the question of the extent to which higher education will cope with the tasks on the formation of scientific ideas and training of qualified personnel, appropriate level of the society development, assumes the knowledge of the character of higher education development.The authors investigated that throughout the history of society in different countries, the development of higher education had been influenced by various external factors, which include: internal and external state policy, level of economic development, scientific and technological progress and social policy. Today the most important factors are: global competition of high schools, increasing importance of information and interactive technologies, international integration in education (the national educational systems interaction), which is amplified. The observation of the educational crisis doesnĄ¯t allow to speak about the identity crisis in education and economic systems. The article states that the crisis in education is a manifestation of the inherent properties of higher education character ¨C its inertia. Investigation of inertial character of higher education is an urgent task that will help to optimize managerial decisions in educational sphere.
