Nowadays Ukraine faces some socio-economic, political and cultural issues as a result of European integration. The urgent problem of Ukraine’s society is improving its education, because it is able to help people adapt to new activities. It is well known that from medieval times higher classical education was concentrated in the university. This tradition is still kept at almost all classical universities of developed countries. According to the reform of education in Ukraine there is a problem concerning the understanding of “classical university”, its role in training and education of modern professionals. In addition, classical university teaches students to solve practical problems and solve difficult situations during their future professional activities. The article reveals the features of students’ professional adaptation at classical universities, determines the features of students’ adaptation at classical universities to their future professional activity. The tasks of this article are: to explain the concept “classical university”; the content of the terms “adaptation” and “professional adaptation”; analyze the characteristics of professional students’ adaptation at classical universities. The study reveals the features of students’ professional training at classical universities: the state of the modern classical education in Ukraine, content and structure of professional training of the future specialists at classical universities in order to adapt them. After analyzing the semantic content of the studied phenomenon “classical university”, we consider that the criteria of a classical university are: extensive training with the help of postgraduate and doctoral studies; developed system of training and professional development; a high proportion of the teaching staff with scientific degrees and academic titles. We believe that it is much more difficult to adapt to the future professional activities at the classical university, due to the large number of other subjects that are not connected with the professional ones, but unlike the specialized university, the classical one educates a modern creative specialist, who has a broad interdisciplinary outlook, based on knowledge of basic sciences, the ability to think and express their thoughts successfully.
This paper sets out to present the defining elements of the cultural dimensions in a classical University in Romania ("Lucian Blaga" University in Sibiu) and their influence on change and development program of the university's management, especially on Natural Gases Engineering Education. Management change and development are considered under the umbrella of the new educational law (Law no. 1/2011) that came into force in Romania. Ideas that resulted by using the three-dimensional morphological matrix with the axes: organizational culture - organizational change - cultural intensity development are analysed and presented in five distinct hypostases of the five cultural dimensions promoted by the Dutch researcher Geert Hofstede. Expected results of the research are connected to discovering the activities that allow organizational, institutional and academic management change according to the cultural specifics and to the new national education law.
