Abstract

Introduction. The Russian educational space has been reformed during many years. The basis for reforms is the globalization and digitalization of the regional educational space, which is developing against the background of the production technologization. These factors put higher educational institutions into the pre-crisis state, while independent solving the arising problems is required from these institutions. In addition, today in Russia there takes place an organizational, content-related and meaning-related formation of a new educational space: the number of higher education institutions and rural schools is being reduced, numerous competing strategies and programs are being developed, other meanings are being conceptualized and other values of education are being proclaimed. Almost in all strategies and programs, one of the conditions for the success of the university is the creation of an ecosystem that optimizes the relationship between «higher education and the social environment», «higher education and production», «higher education, science and production», etc. The problem becomes more topical of creating one's own university production base, which is integrated to the extent possible into external business structures and optimally combined with the internal university functional. Methodology and methods of research. Based on the development of foreign and domestic researchers, the authors propose their own vision of the management model of the production and educational complex in the condition of market economy. Particular attention is paid to the structure of the production base of the educational institution and the types of its integration into the external and internal ecosystems of a particular institution. It is concluded that one of the most optimal models of management of the educational and production complex based on a particular institution is management based on corporate principles. Time will show how effective and sustainable the proposed system is in the Russian reality, but already now its further development and application can arouse the interest of business structures, educational institutions, regional authorities and public organizations. Results of research. The transition to the VI technological structure and the development of the information society pose complex challenges for educational systems of different levels: the creation of the production base, the expansion of competitiveness and cooperation, modeling the development of integration schemes of the University with enterprises (in the creation of the production base of the University), etc. But the main direction should be considered to promote the development of clusters, which involves support from the authorities in the implementation of cluster members of the following activities: the formation of a special-alized organization that coordinates the activities of cluster members and can be created in various legal forms (it is assumed that the functions of this organization can be assigned to both newly created and existing institutions); development of a cluster development strategy and a plan of measures for its implementation, including the preparation of a set of cluster projects and measures aimed at creating favorable conditions for the development of the cluster; effective information exchange between cluster members; implementation of measures to promote cooperation of cluster members (conferences, seminars, working groups, creation of specialized Internet resources, electronic mailing lists, etc.). Conclusion. Based on the discussion of the above case, it is concluded that one of the most optimal models of management of the educational and production complex on the basis of a specific University is management based on corporate principles. Time will show how effective and sustainable the proposed system is in the Russian reality, but even now its further development and application may be of interest to business structures, public institutions, regional authorities and public organizations.
