Кадровые Проблемы Развития Высоких Технологий В России В Зеркале Глобального Индекса Инноваций

Abstract

Кадровые проблемы развития высоких технологий в России в зеркале Глобального индекса инноваций The article defines the role and the place of high technologies at the current stage of social development, descripts the role and the value of innovation for technological improvement of national economy, justifies relationship between level and intensity of innovative activity and rate of high technologies development. The analysis of such interrelation gives the chance of use the innovation index as indicator of development of high technologies. This conclusion is proved by intrinsic interpretation of the "high technologies" term, which is characterized by innovations. Basing on the Global Innovation Index, which is a study aimed at understanding economic process, author analyses positions held by Russia within general indicator, which is now regarded as indicator of technological level of national economy and level of economic development in general. Consideration of the essence of high technologies and drivers for technology development makes it possible to define two crucial factors: expenditure on R&D and the quality of human resources (mostly engineers, technicians and researchers). Research findings vividly illustrate problems of staffing such as the lack of young professionals in science and engineering, relatively poor performance of their intellectual activity, low efficiency of innovation that impede technological upgrading of economy.

Motivation in Today’s Environment

“…According to employers, there is a significant gap between the desired and actual level of competence of young specialists. And among the obstacles to effective professional activity are as follows: "lack of ability to work independently", "lack of experience of interaction with a real sector" (a gap of 1.5 times), insufficient "communication skills" (a gap of 1.4 times), lack of a broad contextual thinking and a comprehensive understanding of the industry, no understanding of the economic patterns of functioning thereof (a gap of 1.4 times) [5,6]. The development of an effective system of motivation both in an educational organization (to attend classes and perform practical tasks) and at workplace can partly solve the above-enumerated issues as well.…”

Problems and trends in the nanoindustry development in Russia

“…В-третьих, возникают серьезные изменения в сфере высшего образования, касающиеся программ подготовки кадров требуемой квалификации, в том числе увеличение числа образовательных организаций высшего образования, реализующих направления подготовки, ориентированные на развитие наноиндустрии (по официальной статистике в РФ насчитывается порядка 40 образовательных организаций высшего образования, обучающих специалистов в области нанотехнологий или направлений подготовки, тесно связанных с ними, и около 200 образовательных программ [17]). В-четвертых, уже сегодня по численности работников, занятых в сфере наукоемких производств, РФ занимает 15-ю позицию в мировом рейтинге [18], что в совокупности с достаточно высокой публикационной активностью, регистрацией патентов и изобретений исследователей в области наноиндустрии, дает основания положительно характеризовать динамику развития человеческого капитала для наноиндустрии.…”
