Special attention should be paid to postgraduate studies, which in the new system
of higher education will represent professional education aimed at training highly qual-
ied personnel. ose who have received a basic higher education, but with a period of
study of at least ve years (specialist), as well as graduates of the master’s degree will be
able to enroll in postgraduate studies. e specicity of postgraduate studies will be its
focus on scientic and scientic-pedagogical activity. In addition, the Russian Ministry
of Education and Science, together with universities and the scientic and professional
community, will work on updating the list of scientic specialties and areas of training,
educational programs, and improving the distribution of admissions targets.
According to Russian experts, consideration of the stated topic requires an appeal
to the capabilities of the social and humanitarian sciences that study man in the sphere
of social, spiritual, public and cultural life, including when it comes to the value-targeted
foundations of “personal and civic education of youth” (Zamaraeva, 2022). e problem
of strategic management of higher education modernization in Russia actualizes a spe-
cial direction of social knowledge and social practice, integrating social and humanitar-
ian knowledge with scientically based development of solutions to current and future
problems based on sociocultural diagnostics and project technologies (Tikhonov, 2017).
Historical Challenge and Russian Higher Education
e mission of higher education is to create conditions for the production, preser-

is involves the relevant educational institutions should solve fundamental and applied
problems in the widest possible range: from training certied specialists with higher ed-

monosov Moscow State University, is an integral and important part of the history of
the Russian intelligentsia, representing at the same time the elite of society, the elite of
education and science, and the elite of the creative spirit. So, the modern historical chal-
lenge poses tasks, consisting of preserving existing in our country positive elements of
the worldview and transforming the social heritage in the direction of its rationaliza-
tion, as well as in the formation of moral guidelines and ethical self-restraints that keep
scientic and technological progress under ecient management (Khvedchenya, 2002;
Kogan, 1996; Krasnova, 2023; Narkhova, 2019).
e transformation of the values of Russian education is oen associated with a
change in the life orientations of individuals. Many scientists believe that the signi-
cance of value lies in its ability to satisfy a need, to “correspond to an interest, and the
content of any value relationship increasingly represents an individualized measure-
ment of the phenomena of material and spiritual culture, educational and social reali-
ty” (Osinina, 2022; Yakovleva, 2022). erefore, the problem of forming a value system
for a future specialist (teacher, lecturer and researcher) should receive special attention
from the professional, pedagogical and academic community. Students of pedagogical
universities, in the process of professional training, determine the content of the world-
view that shapes the personality of their future pupils for many years. Such a pedagogi-
