Role and impact of the US higher education and scientific staff formation on the global cooperation strategies as part of sustainable development

Abstract

In modern conditions of global cooperation and development of sustainable growth effective models, the influence of tertiary education and science systems on the social and economic spheres is increasing. In complex interaction and mutual integration, this ensures high efficiency of progress both in individual countries and in a global dimension. For example, the American model of tertiary education and science reflects the specifics of worldviews, social orientations, and social demands - Americans regard education with their inherent pragmatism. From the American point of view, training programs and courses are products that differ in quality and price. The US principle of educational specialization, but not universalization is a conscious desire to achieve economic goals. This approach is also based on the Protestant idea of corporate social responsibility; and the education system, as one of the forms of this responsibility manifestation, was formed on the basis of these values (neobehavioral philosophy of education and Protestant socio-entrepreneurial ethics). Supporters of this trend reject self-expression as the main goal of education. They favor the principle that a man is a learning being, and in the process of learning all the behavioral norms are developed. The learning effectiveness is achieved by introducing the achievements of science, technology, and experiment into the system of education. According to these prevailing principles of management, pedagogy, and philosophy of education, all life, educational aspirations, and requests, both personal and professional, must be clearly algorithmically and purposefully modified in conjunction with the goals, values, and direction of the state and society.
