Abstract

The article deals with contemporary medical education in Ukraine. In the late twentieth and early twenty-first century, higher medical education in Ukraine has undergone essential changes. These changes affect the system of education, and the educational process, and most importantly, those guidelines and criteria by which alteration occurs in the sphere of education. The goal of the research is to identify the most important principles of its restructuring for the modern development of higher medical education in Ukraine; to analyze and evaluate their role in the restructuring of higher medical education. Researchers identify two kinds of personal qualities that have to orientate higher education according to the above principles. On the one hand, modern society needs people who can independently make responsible decisions in a situation of choice, foreseeing their possible consequences. On the other hand, higher education should train professionals who do not neglect their national culture and traditions as well as universal values, world culture, and develop their moral qualities. These two orientations are reflected in competence approach to the aims and contents of learning, as well as in humanization of higher medical education, in forming students’ culture on humanistic principles. It is concluded that medical education in its professional orientation embodies competence-based approach and the principle of humanization most naturally. Thus, medical education has the ability to combine new principles with traditional approaches in a harmonious way and to base innovation on the solid ground of traditions
