“…It is confirmed that the practice-oriented approach in organization of the higher school contributes to developing the entrepreneurial spirit and motivates students to get suitable jobs and find opportunities to implement their business ideas. It positively affects the country's national economy as a whole (Krisnaresanti, 2020;Vlasov et al, 2020;Abdimomynova et al, 2021). Undoubtedly, when opening own business, you may encounter many traditional obstacles, for example, capital limitations and the search for additional investments, business partners and lack of confidence in opening a new business, risks related to the competitors' activities in a particular business environment.…”

The purpose of this work is to identify the functional links between key indicators of scientific activity and socio-economic development and to check whether the quality of scientific activity and the dynamics of innovative development are the key determinants of socio-economic progress. Following the chosen methodology, the paper forms an array of input data that characterizes the level of scientific and innovative activity, economic and social development. The principal component method is used to identify the most relevant indicators from each group and to introduce three latent variables that denote each group separately. A system of simultaneous structural equations is obtained as a result of establishing functional relationships between manifest and latent variables and building a structural model. In addition, the paper determines two clusters of the studied countries to confirm the obtained results through structural modelling. The study is conducted for 35 European countries based on 33 indicators, which characterize the quality of scientific activity, economic and social development during 2014-2020. The obtained system of structural equations confirms the hypothesis regarding the importance of scientific activity quality in terms of ensuring the socio-economic development of the country.

“…Due to the above-mentioned reasons, a dangerous process of higher education quality reduce is being developed. As a consequence, its inadequacy to the real needs of society becomes obvious, especially in the part of employment (Vlasov et al, 2020). Besides, some researchers prove that higher education does not always lead to greater feeling of own security at the labour market (Lewandowska & Stopa, 2020).…”

The subject of this paper is to point out phenomenologically the causes of the evident decline in the quality of higher education in the selected countries of the Southeast Europe: Bosnia and Herzegovina (B&H), Montenegro (MNE) and Serbia (SER). The aim of this research is comparing respondents' perceptions in the above countries regarding the basic and general causes of decline in higher education levels, which is generated by massive negative (braking) processes and tendencies. It starts with the hypothesis that most problems in higher education of the considered countries originate for two reasons: application of the political principle of the voting machine and selective application of the so-called "Bologna Process" in the field of higher education. The multiple regression linear approach is methodologically applied to the sample of 210 respondents in the three countries mentioned above. The results have confirmed the validity of the hypothesis and, consequently, the need for significant educational reforms in the part of the independent variables, which would lead to an increase in the quality of higher education.

This study proposes an approach to the external evaluation of medical education programs' quality based on a combination of indicators, including international rankings, external stakeholders' input, and independent agencies' assessments. We modify the success equation with a detailed consideration of the skill component and its decomposition into internal and external quality assurance elements along with authority. We carried out a bibliometric analysis regarding the problem of medical education quality assessment in the context of achieving sustainable development goals. We described the calculation model of external quality assessment indicators through the algorithms of independent education quality assurance agencies' activity and rating indicators shown in the modified Mauboussin's equation. The model considers the economic component (the consequence of achievement) of skill, which is expressed in raising funds from external sources to implement educational and scientific activities. The proposed algorithm for assessing the educational program quality can be applied to benchmark educational program components, complete educational programs within the subject area, and the educational institution for different areas. We propose a “financial” model for educational program quality based on the analysis results. The model makes it possible to determine the need for additional focused funding of the educational program based on the individual analysis of the external evaluation criteria of the achievement level. This study analyzes the accreditation results of more than 110 educational programs in 2020 and 8 months of 2021 within the direction 22 “Medicine” (according to the national classification of fields of knowledge) (state and private Ukrainian medical universities).
