Метою дослідження є теоретичне обґрунтування та виявлення шляхів формування корпоративної культури як основи вищої освіти.
Аналізуються передумови та основні аспекти формування корпоративної культури вищих навчальних закладів України. Обґрунтовуються практичні рекомендації щодо напрямів і методів удосконалення корпоративної культури, створення її ефективної моделі як необхідної умови функціонування та трансформації вітчизняних вищих навчальних закладів.
Реалізація моделі корпоративної культури викликає необхідність зміни стилю традиційного академічного управління і переходу на принципи корпоративного управління. При цьому освітня діяльність, заснована на морально-етичних принципах і загальнолюдських цінностях, розглядається як процес формування інтелектуальної еліти нового покоління, здатної творити інноваційну інфраструктуру національної економіки.

An important part of corporate culture is corporate identity – a high level of awareness of history, values, rules and positive attitude towards the educational establishment, following its rules.
