This study attempted to reveal the essential problem underlying the symptoms and share some thoughts of how to resolve them. It is concluded that corporatizing university in the country is considered among the most effective strategies to establish world-class universities in the archipelago.

The article is an answer to questions concerning values, goals and functions of the University in the era of globalization changes that enforce changes in the area of higher education. The author emphasizes the need for balanced development of science, humanities and social sciences as a condition for preserving research independence, as well as the importance of cooperation, both in research and in the „shaping of autonomous institutionalism” of the University (Roggero). The article provides an analysis of the commercialization process of research results, based on data from Polish and foreign studies, and indicates its various forms and social costs. This is a study of the University's condition in the face of the growing importance of transnational corporations, regulating not only the flow of capital, but also the distribution of scientific prestige and appropriating in a different way the effects of academic work. The metaphor of the university as a enterprise/knowledge factory visualizes the errors in perceiving the role that it should play. It proves that research and teaching is not the production and transmission of knowledge, but the creation and sharing of knowledge. In this dialogical process, the idea of a university understood as a community of educators and taught in pursuit of truth is achieved most fully, not for glory, for making profit or for gaining a competitive advantage.

The traditional university model, based on scholarly authority and generał education, has been losing its significance in the society. This trend has emerged as a result of rapid globalisation processes as well as commercialisation of science and research. In the technology - and innovation-based economy a vital role is played by practical, technical and organisational knowledge. This knowledge enables the development of innovativeness and competitiveness in the economy. The paper aims to present the process of transition from the traditional university to the university of the future.

Tradycyjny model uniwersytetu, oparty na autorytecie naukowca i kształceniu ogólnym, powoli traci na znaczeniu. Wpływ na to mają postępujące w szybkim tempie procesy globalizacji oraz komercjalizacji nauki i badań. W gospodarce opartej na technologii i innowacji pierwszoplanową rolę odgrywa wiedza praktyczna, techniczna oraz organizacyjna. Staje się ona podstawą rozwoju innowacyjności i konkurencyjności gospodarki. Celem artykułu jest przedstawienie procesu przechodzenia od uniwersytetu tradycyjnego do uczelni przyszłości.

The article analyzes the features of the corporate university as a form of organization of corporate education in the United States which arose against the background of the rapid econo¬mic development and advances in science and technology at the beginning of the last century. The corporate university emerged as a mechanism for solving current problems and needs of the strategic development of the organization. It has been revealed that the main socio-economic preconditions for the formation of this educational phenomenon were: the transition from the industrial society, which required skilled workers to the information economy based on knowledge; convergence of learning and manufacture; change in priorities of workers, who valued training opportunities in the organization more than security of their employment; inadequacy of vocational training in the traditional education institutions to practical job requirements; economic benefits for businesses from training their employees in organizations; the need to provide the continuous training to workers in the information society and ensure their competitiveness in the global economy; the importance for companies to meet the expectations of customers; the demographic factor. Among the first corporate universities which emerged in the USА were: the General Electric Corporate School, the General Motors Institute of Engineering and Management, Disney University, Hamburger University, Motorola University. It was found out that the first corporate universities were characterized by strict structural subordination to the parent organization and the lack of partnership with external educational institutions. However, despite their certain limitations, the first corporate universities became a significant achievement and a step forward in the development of human capital. Therefore their parent companies can be considered the first examples of learning organizations, which have made a decisive contribution into the convergence of education and manufacture and identified the ways of further development of corporate education in the country.

The article identifies and analyzes the specific features of functioning of the US higher education system which determine its competitiveness and leading positions in the world as also outlines the possibilities of use of the American experience in the development of the higher education system in Ukraine. In order to achieve the aim we used the structural-logical and structural-functional analysis which allowed us to determine the specific features of the US higher education system; the system-structural and comparative analysis which helped to define the promising directions for the development of higher education in the United States; the scientific extrapolation method which permitted us to outline the possibilities of using the innovative potential of American experience in the process of modernization of higher education in Ukraine. It has been established that the specific features of the functioning of the higher education system in the USA are socio-economic, political, historical, socio-cultural determinants of its development; ramification of legislative support, implementation of a number of reforms that were standard-oriented, professionally oriented and market-oriented; decentralization and regionalization, financing alternatives, multilevelness and diversification of its structure, comprised of universities, colleges and specialized institutions; intensive development of research and corporate universities. It has been found out that the specific features of functioning of the US higher education system ensure its competitiveness and leadership worldwide, therefore, American experience of building the higher education system can be used in Ukrainian educational space. To perspective directions of further research we refer the study of the organizational, content and procedural foundations of master degree programs at US universities, analysis of strategies and models of research universities in the United States, determination of possibilities of using elements of innovative American experience in Ukrainian educational space.
