The urgency of the problem is caused by the need to integrate the Russian higher education system into the world educational space and to ensure the export of Russian higher education. For successful social and professional adaptation of graduates of Russian universities, it is important to synchronize educational programs implemented in Russia and abroad. This problem is especially important for PhD programs, which are widely distributed in foreign universities, but do not have an official status in the Russian Federation. The purpose of the article: to determine the prospects for PhD programs in the Russian Federation on the basis of studying the nature and characteristics of these programs implemented abroad, and to generalize the experience of their implementation in a number of Russian higher education institutions. The leading methods of the problem study were theoretical analysis and generalization of the educational practice of implementing PhD programs, as well as methods for studying information provided on official websites of higher education institutions and analyzing local normative legal acts of universities in terms of positioning PhD programs. The article reveals a set of theoretical provisions that determine the nature and characteristics of PhD programs, defines the basic principles for their implementation, and identifies the main types of PhD programs in relation to programs for training highly qualified personnel in post-graduate school. The type and characteristics of these programs are considered based on the analysis of information about PhD programs presented on the official sites of a number of higher education institutions, as well as features of their implementation and characteristics of documents issued after the completion of the program. The prospects of PhD programs are determined, related to the complex implementation of their potential (opportunities). The materials of the article may be useful for the modernization of training programs for highly qualified personnel that ensure the integration of the Russian higher education system into the world educational space.
