The phenomenon of internationalization in the international scientific and educational space of Russia and France at the present stage
Authors considered issues of the development of internationalization in the international scientific and educational space. Its main tasks are: consideration of the process of appearance of this concept, its main directions, forms of implementation, as well as trends in the modern world. Due to these challenges today students have a wide range of opportunities to participate in the diverse forms of international student mobility that develop in the context of internationalization. The methodology proposed by authors implies the views of various, both foreign and Russian researchers, on the concept of internationalization in higher education and science. The basic meaning of this concept is that it does not only characterize changes in diverse educational systems, but also contributes to the development of international scientific and educational cooperation in general. Indeed, international student mobility worldwide is gradually increasing, and the Asia-Pacific region is coming to the forefront of inbound mobility, although Europe and North America are still leading the way. Authors considered the phenomenon of internationalization on a detailed analysis of the processes of academic mobility (incoming and outgoing) in Russia and France, taking into account the conditions of its implementation and the preferences of European and Russian students (priority countries for the training program, depending on the level of education). This research can be further used in the development of issues in the field of international scientific and educational cooperation in the modern world, as the phenomenon of internationalization itself is constantly developing and provokes states to adapt their interests to this process.
