Abstract

The article examines the significance and necessity of improving the quality of higher education services. A methodology for evaluation through the generalized integral index of higher education service quality assessment is presented, and the corresponding periods have been calculated for each structural component of the generalized integral index that determines higher education service quality. Medium-term forecast parameters have been developed for higher education coverage, academic quality, research capacity of faculty members, graduate employment, and the level of digitalization.
