Abstract

The specificity of museums within the system of higher education lies in a unique combination of museum functions in conjunction with the scientific problems of a research institution. The absence of a clear boundary between the process of learning, the research process and the actual activities of the museum is a unique factor in the process of preparing highly qualified specialists of high school. As an important part of the educational and scientific process museums of higher education have an impact on the socio-cultural development of the region, bringing science to society, culture, and historical interpretation, acquiring the value of a multi-level learning space, a community center with the interaction of various spheres of cultural life. There are enough emerging large-scale projects and programs based on new communication and management technologies that are supported at the national level, but striving to go beyond a certain state in order to improve access to the cultural heritage stored in the collections of university museums around the world. An example is the interdisciplinary study of the collections of university museums in Germany, web organization – POMUI in Italy, a system of regular updates of relevant scientific data and replicating the videos in various educational institutions (USA). Another vector of the modern development of the university museum gives direction to work with visitors, covering interests of various categories and groups, the principle of a multi-layer display. Today, university museums, which are inextricably geographically and ideologically linked with universities, go beyond the campus environment through the use of modern information and technology expositions. In this context, the university museum is unique in its versatility and availability of space for research and education
