The success of the state innovation strategy choice and implementation is largely determined by the role of higher education in building of science-intensive economic systems, public recognition of the idea of the university. As the experience of the world’s leading countries shows, the most important component that ensures the existence and development of the innovative potential of higher education is the academic sector of the university. In the activity of the majority of universities of Ukraine, scientific work is insignificant, and only a few leading universities have the opportunity to create a world-class scientific product, making a significant contribution to the country’s innovative development. Under these conditions one of the priority tasks for Ukraine is to strengthen the scientific component in higher education institutions, to increase the efficiency of university science. The article deals with the staffing and intellectual potential of scientific researches of domestic higher educational institutions, the problems of the development of educational science, and the evaluation of its effectiveness in international dimensions.

Keywords: educational sciences, innovative potential of higher educational institutions, factors of forming the quality of educational science, the impact of science according to international indicators.
