Given the impact of globalization processes on the development of higher education, it becomes an urgent task to identify the key aspects of this impact. Therefore, the aim is to characterize the peculiarities of the transformation of higher education in Ukraine within the framework of globalization trends. The collection of literature was based on a strict selection based on the criteria for its inclusion. The study includes analytical materials, reports, articles, monographs, and book chapters. The data analysis involved the use of methods such as contingent analysis and comparison. In the results, it was determined that globalization has positive aspects: the digitalization of education, student mobility, and greater integration of Ukrainian higher education into the global learning space. In the global learning environment, the tendency to form a narrow-profile specialist contradicts the basic needs of society, which requires professionals who are able to use and effectively synthesize the acquired knowledge and skills. However, globalization also has negative aspects (outflow of human resources, increased competition among higher education institutions). The conclusions emphasize the difficulties of further optimization of higher education, which are primarily due to the lack of funding for higher education. Therefore, creating favorable conditions for the realization of the creative potential of specialists is extremely important. This can be done by increasing spending on higher education and providing support for young talent in Ukraine.
