Abstract
This article is devoted to the challenges that university education in Ukraine faces, including those that appear due to the adoption of the renewed law «On Higher Education». Systemic changes to higher education in Ukraine were needed for a long time even before the Bologna Declaration process started. They should allow the country and its universities, students and professors to feel integrated in the global system of tertiary education leading to the assurance of the quality of education in accordance with the highest international standards in learning and research. University autonomy and university reputation management are new to Ukraine, and present significant challenges to university administrators. The introduction of reforms brings many institutional changes and will lead not only to the creation of the National Agency for Quality Assurance in Higher Education but also to a reduction in the number of universities in Ukraine.
