The influence of factors on the formation of a modern network of higher education institutions in Ukraine is researched, objective and subjective factors are defined. Expert opinion on the restructuring of higher education institutions network in Ukraine is generalized, and it is specified that the majority of authors characterize modern network of higher education institutions as ineffective and as one that needs to be reformed. Modern territorial and sectoral structure of higher education institutions, their scientific and pedagogical potential, volume of specialists training are analyzed. It is defined that the network of higher education institutions in Ukraine is oversaturated with branches of higher educational institutions that do not have the necessary scientific and pedagogical potential, financial and technical support. The calculations of the future number of students and teachers are made, and on this basis, the standpoint on the need, directions and ways of optimization of the network of higher education institutions is formulated. The basic arrangements regarding the optimization of the network of higher education institutions in Ukraine are proposed. Positive and negative effects of these measures are determined.
