“…Ideally, the number of students to a teacher is supposed to remain as low as possible to enable the teachers or faculty to provide personalized instructions. Indeed, according to Yu et al (2016) or Bordean and Sonea (2018), faculty to student ratio is a major determinant of the levels of interaction between students and faculty, and so influence student engagements.…”

In the context of globalized markets and localized R&D structures, tertiary (also called higher or university) education becomes one of the main factors facilitating economic performance. In the face of globalization and digitalization, substantial institutional changes, reforms and merges of universities represent a challenge for the higher education in the 21st century. These changes go hand in hand with economic development and global economic growth as far as higher education significantly impacts economic performance of regions and countries. European Union (EU) also faces these challenges and therefore has to promote higher education policies and invest into tertiary education in order to increase the level of human capital of its citizens with the purpose of achieving competitiveness on the global markets and higher economic growth.

“…The modern market of educational services and increased competition among educational institutions creates the need to apply successful practices of managing the image of the university through its graduates (Bordea et al 2017;or Bordean and Sonea 2018). Granting greater autonomy to higher educational institutions makes it possible to design or strengthen image policy for universities, to develop effective models of interaction with interested groups (Bogdanović et al 2018;or Strielkowski 2018).…”

This paper analyses the complex of factors that influence the efficiency of the university activity in terms of image problems. The phenomenon of the image of the university leader (in this case a university rector) is considered by us as a symbolic construct based on a number of socio-psychological determinants. The paper determines the structure of the image of the university, the stages of managing the image of the university are identified, which are revealed on the grounds of the developed system of communicative integrators. We arrive at a conclusion that certain University integrators act as factors and results of communications and their system includes such aspects as: an integrator-factor (strategic goal); integrator-result (holistic image); integrators of the internal environment of the university; and an integrator as a concept uniting the communicative activity of the university. The work with these integrators is aimed at implementing an updated version of the communicative policy of the university. Based on our obtained results, we come up with some practical recommendations for managing the image of the university within each of the communicative integrators. Our results might be of special interest for higher education policy planners and regulators.• study of the role and functions of images in the social and communicative space, methods of managing various images; • creation of social technologies for image management, development of specialized image technologies.
