The problem of transformation of the higher education system in the Russian Federation in terms of developing scientific and pedagogical potential is quite acute. Copying the Bologna system without adapting to the Russian reality led to the formation of destructive consequences for the system of reproduction of scientific and pedagogical personnel of the country. Negative trends in the number of higher education institutions, demographic waves accompanied by a decrease in the number of students, changing market requirements for the value of higher education and its formalization have led to a reduction in the need for research and teaching staff. Among other things, the prestige of the higher school teaching profession has significantly decreased in society, which has become an additional factor for reducing the interest of talented young people in the teaching profession, and without the influx of talented creative personnel into the research environment, the country's human resources potential in general also falls, as well as its innovative potential. Many scientists negatively assess the reformation in the higher education system of the Russian Federation, focusing on criticism of changes that forced higher school teachers to work to achieve rating indicators, rather than developing their own intellectual potential and teaching. They negatively assess the Western experience in implementing generalized education standards, which, first, in Russia were not adapted to the country's original culture, and secondly, led not to solving problems in the higher education system, but to their aggravation.
