In 2006, the European Commission presented the Modernization Agenda for Universities founded on three reforms: curricular, governance and funding. According to the agenda, funding should be based on output-oriented budgeting. What is more, investment in higher education should bring benefits to all stakeholders. The most commonly used tool for measuring the private rate of return to education is Mincer’s econometric model. The paper presents the results of research on the private rate of return to education, which was estimated by the classical Mincerian function where wages are modelled as a function of level of education and experience. Empirical research was conducted using individual data from the Social Diagnosis – research of selected Polish households. The study was conducted in two stages. First, the parameters of the Mincer’s model for respondents included in the diagnosis in 2011 were estimated. Secondly, the parameters of the model for respondents, who declared in 2011 having higher education degree and who took part in the diagnosis in previous years (since 2003) and then declared a lower (other than higher) level of education, were estimated. To determine the significance of differences in monthly net incomes before and after reaching the higher education degree, the Wilcoxon Matched-Pairs Signed-Rank Test was used.

In the era of the knowledge-based society and economy education has become a crucial factor in determining the future prospects of national states, and thus a subject to fundamental changes. With a purpose to improve the quality of higher education (HE) and become more competitive in the global context European countries joined their efforts and commenced a massive multi-year project of harmonizing and modernizing HE systems, which is known as the Bologna process (BP). According to the main Bologna documents the involvement of all stakeholders, especially the recipients of educational services (students), into HE governance at all levels is considered to be one of the core principles of the European Higher Education Area (EHEA) development. However, it was found out, the system of student representation and the degrees of their engagement vary considerably around Europe. For solving this problem it is essential to find innovative approaches in engaging students into HE management by studying the positive experience of the most influential student representative organization in the EHEA – the European Students’ Union (ESU). In the article major organizational, procedural and content foundations of the ESU’s activity as a subject of the BP were defined and characterized. On the basis of logical and systematic analysis of statutory and policy documents specific peculiarities of the organizational structure, goals and principles, and forms of cooperation with external partners of the Union were pointed out. The basic action lines of the ESU in the context of the higher education modernization were studied. They are quality assurance, student-centered paradigm in education, graduates’ employability, financing of higher education and student movement development. To the main forms of the ESU’s engagement into the BP we refer: collection, analysis, synthesis and dissemination of information to the NUSes, and other BP subjects; monitoring of the Bologna principles implementation in different European countries; establishment together with other representative bodies of the advisory and expert bodies pools; foundation of associated structures; popularization of ESU’s policies among major stakeholders in higher education; realization of analytical and research projects (QUEST, SAGE, FINST, PASCL, etc.). Besides, it was determined that the main means which the ESU uses in order to achieve its objectives are the following: surveys NUSes, student debates, forums, conferences and seminars; policy documents, declarations and resolutions, speeches, statements; the series of analytical publications “Bologna With Student Eyes”.

Ukraine with a powerful intellectual resource, with high pedagogical potential remains one of the leading countries in the European educational space. High quality and availability of education in Ukraine creates is quite a broad market of educational services. There is an opportunity to provide educational services not only to its citizens but also citizens of foreign countries. Education of foreign students is one of the strategic factors of development of society in the field of educational services. Experience education of foreign students in Ukraine revealed the problems associated with learning in a foreign language environment. Differences in the system of the school education in foreign countries lead to the different educational experience and level of training. Therefore, for each solution of professional tasks in the field of study of discipline should have its own specifics. The level of education and training creates a barrier to quality education, despite the hidden potential of most students. Learning difficulties experienced by the students in foreign countries, require a detailed study of the theory and the technology of education of foreign students. It should have correct substantive, methodological and organizational components of the discipline. The article is dedicated to the question of improvement of quality of fundamental education of foreign students at the technical university. The modern interpretation of visualization in mathematics education as reliance on sensual perception of the information can give the maximum effect in the preparation of foreign students. In the condition of bad language of education, support to the emotional perception of the information increases the efficiency of education of foreign students. Based on the experience of teaching of higher mathematics to foreign students at the technical university, the author characterizes the principle of visibility as the paramount didactic principle of the preparation of foreign students. In principle of visibility the author sees hidden reserve to improve the quality of the classical mathematical preparation of foreign students. The capability of the principle of visibility is to disclose at the optimum combination of visual information with its subsequent discussion.
