Analyzed is the Bolgna model of organization of higher education in Europe, and also comparisons are made of some first results of modernization of Russian higher education with samples of European model. Special attention of the author is paid to the meaning of value-content component of the process of higher education. Made is the author’s conclusion, that solving of tasks of modernization of higher professional education of Russia by means of blind imitation to the West is counter-productive, because that way is fraught with assimilation into European educational space with simultaneous loss of national cultural codes and values.
