A characteristic feature of the XXI century is the emergence of the digital society phenomenon, which significantly changes all processes in higher education. The implementation of innovations into university activity, creation of its digital culture, and digital environment are the key features of an innovative-active university (IAU) and factors of its development. The paper aims to develop a strategy and innovative-indicative measures for digitalization of IAU activities based on the study of society’s digital maturity. Index, rating, comparative analyzes, and decomposition method were used. It is determined that Ukraine has a significant gap in comparison with the developed countries in terms of digital maturity of society and occupies lower than average positions in international informatization indices. To assess the state of digitalization processes in Ukraine, government measures for the development of digital culture were analyzed, the limitations and triggers of society digitalization are identified. It is proved that the digitalization of education has a dominant impact on the overall level of digital competitiveness. That is, the introduction of information and communication technologies in the IAU activity is an urgent task of its management. The digitalization strategy of S.Kuznets KhNUE in accordance with its educational, scientific and technical, marketing, and international activities was created. The proposed strategy is based on a systemic understanding of digitalization processes, which makes it possible to increase the degree of their controllability. A set of innovative and indicative measures was developed, which constitute the tactical contour of IAU digital process management. AcknowledgmentThe following materials were used in writing this paper: Development of methodological and model-information support for the construction of an innovative type university on the basis of education quality and anti-corruption (state registration number: 0120U102152).

This article is devoted to the analysis of the impact of socio-economic shocks on the dynamics of higher education development. It is substantiated that, on the one hand, higher education influences the development of society and the economy, on the other hand, the development trends of a country provide both opportunities and limitations for its development. An algorithmic model for studying the impact of social and economic shocks on the development of the higher education system (HES) has been developed. To diagnose the relationship between higher education and the socio-economic development of Ukraine and Slovakia, the following indicators were used: GDP per capita, the Human Development Index, school enrollment, tertiary, and net migration. The presence of nonlinear trends in the change in indicators has been shown and portraits of the socio-economic development of the countries have been constructed. To assess the impact of socio-economic shocks on the HES, the time-series decomposition method and cross-spectral analysis were used. The time-series decomposition allowed us to identify cyclical components of indicators, based on applying cross-spectral analysis, and the most significant local harmonics and the lag of their influence on the occurrence of shocks in the HES were determined. The use of the developed models allows us to predict periods of shock points in the HES depending on shocks in the tendencies of GDP per capita and net migration.

The modern stage of modernization of both the national and the world higher education system necessitates the transformation of higher education institutions into entrepreneurial, innovatively active organizations that are able to quickly adapt to volatile changes in the external environment. In this regard, many issues require a new solution regarding the management of higher education institutions (HEIs), i.e.: ensuring the quality of higher education, training the personnel, appropriate to labor market, providing various educational services, ensuring the continuity of education, and improving the organizational and economic mechanism of management of HEI. From the point of view of the system approach, a HEI is seen as an open system, a mechanism for converting input information or resources into final products, where effective organization of internal processes becomes one of the most important ways to obtain its competitive advantages. Based on the analysis of the main properties of HEI as an open dynamic system, it is defined that the most important systemic characteristic of university is its organizational structure, which includes four main aspects: description of the structure of subdivisions and departments; connections between them and the external environment; information circulating on these connections; functions performed by structural units and departments. The article is aimed at studying various types of organizational structure of management of higher education institution, determining the specifics of their application in the activities of the university, which operates in an open informational and educational space. The main types of organizational structure of management of HEI, built on the classical principle, are distinguished; weaknesses and strengths of their application for the management of HEI are determined. It is proved that the organizational management structures, built according to divisional and matrix types, are promising, since only they are able to adequately and promptly respond to changes both in the internal and external environment of HEI. A list of requirements to meet the contemporary, effective organizational structure of a higher education institution is formed, the highlighted requirements are: optimality, operational efficiency, reliability, economic efficiency, flexibility and stability of the management system. The carried out study allowed to conclude that a higher education institution in the process of its life cycle should timely adjust its strategic goals of activity and make adequate changes to the organizational structure in accordance with the new conditions in which it functions.

In today's conditions of country's development, the economic security of the regions serves as a guarantor of the independence of the territory and an indicator of its economic growth. Economic security acts as one of the components of national security and it is impossible to carry out effectively tasks for its maintenance without understanding of its essence. At the same time, the country's economic security is determined by the level of economic security of regional systems, the justified management of which requires an objective assessment of the state and development trends based on indicators of economic security. The purpose of the research is to generalize theoretical and analytical as well as methodological foundations for determining the level of the region economic security, the integral assessment technology formation and clustering of the regions of Ukraine according to the components of economic security. There were used the system approach, logical-comparative analysis, generalization method of information, methods of taxonomy and multivariate analysis during economic security research of the regions. Monographs of scientists from the mentioned issues, materials of periodicals, statistical information of the sites of the State Statistics Service of Ukraine, Main regional statistics officesismethodological and informational basis of the research. The research presents the results of calculating the integral indicators of economic security of Ukrainianregions for 64 indicators during 2015-2017. In terms of economic security there were applied cluster and discriminant analyses for the allocation of homogeneous groups of regions. In order to identify the factors having a negative impact on state of the general level of economic security of the regions, a correlation-regression model was built for each cluster. The results of the analysis demonstrate a low level of economic security of the regions of Ukraine. An integrated assessment of the economic security level of the regions made it possible to carry out a comparative analysis that identified the most volatile (weak, vulnerable) regions and showed according to which components of economic security should make the priority management impacts. In order to develop priority tactical and strategic measures to stabilize and increase the level of economic security of the regions their clusterization and analysis of cluster migration of the regions was carried out was. As a result of the use of multifactor econometric modeling, the weights of the impact of a specific structural component of economic security on its overall level for invariant regions are determined, and in accordance with this, a set of management recommendations for improving the economic security of the country's regions is formed.
