State Policy of Ukraine in the Field of Science, Education and Culture in the Context of European Integration

Abstract

The article examines the features of the formation of state policy of Ukraine in the context of cultural, educational and scientific and technical integration into the EU. It is shown that the state policy of Ukraine in the relevant areas is to implement European norms and standards in education, science and technology, the spread of its own cultural and scientific and technical achievements in the EU. Ultimately, these steps will contribute to the enhancement of European cultural identity in Ukraine and integration into the pan-European intellectual, educational and scientific-technical environment. It is proved that the implementation of the strategy of European integration of Ukraine requires the modernization of the educational sector, which in modern conditions is becoming a leading generator of socio-political and cultural changes. The process of changes in education and science in Ukraine involves the creation of a qualitatively new system of management of educational institutions. Ukraine's European choice necessitates the formation of an educational and scientific strategy for European integration. Carrying out structural reforms in the field of science of Ukraine will on this basis increase the level of participation of Ukrainian research institutes in the field of European research. Thus, Ukraine's European integration policy is primarily a tool for implementing internal reforms aimed at modernizing the country, creating democratic institutions and achieving a European standard of living.
