Vasetskaya N.O.
The object of research is integrated innovative scientific and educational structures of the university. The goal is to develop a system of indicators for evaluating the effectiveness of innovative integrated scientific and educational structures of the university. Methods: content analysis, comparison, systematization. In the context of technological, economic and cultural changes that have engulfed all social institutions of society in the last quarter of the XX century, the higher education system also needs to be modernized. Integrated innovation structures are considered as new forms of organizing the activities of universities as economic entities of higher education. Depending on the form of interaction between universities and the academic environment and enterprises in the real sector of the economy, there are the following structures: combined laboratories, basic departments, research and educational centers and research laboratories. The activities of these structures are based on the integration of science, education and industry. In this regard, in this article, based on the analysis of goals and expectations in the field of innovation from each of the considered structures in the framework of educational and research activities, a system of indicators for evaluating the performance of innovation units has been developed. It is shown that each integrated innovative scientific and educational structure corresponds to a certain set of indicators for evaluating its performance, while individual indicators may overlap. The proposed performance indicators include indicators that characterize both the scientific and educational activities of the division. Among the indicators of the effectiveness of integrated and innovative structures of the university selected publication activity, the funding of scientific research and development, a number of research projects, the level of capitalization of scientific research and/or innovation applied innovation and scientific development, the number of received patents and inventions, the average score for protection of final qualification works, the number of students, the degree of implementation of the results of final qualifying works in the business, the number of trained personnel. The developed system of performance indicators can be used as a «constructor» for the formation of its own integrated innovative scientific and educational structure.
