The study analyzes the educational problems faced by the higher education system of Ukraine versus competences of future university graduates; and demonstrates that the Law of Ukraine ‘On Higher Education’ is largely unfulfilled in terms of equal attention to the relevant processes. The non-core physical education is viewed as an indispensable part of a student’s background, with every student required to directly contribute to the academic physical education, health and recreation process and events to obtain a profound and versatile knowledge, good skills, due competences and abilities. The mounting problems faced by the national higher education system need to be addressed by the high-quality legislative provisions to provide due reference points for the national higher education system reforms; and by focused and large-scale studies to analyze the real situation in the Ukrainian higher education system.

Keywords: education, vocational training, Law of Ukraine ‘On Higher Education’, faculty, students.
