It is analyzed that as of today, 45 higher education institutions in Ukraine have been completely destroyed and 61 have been damaged. It is emphasized that when addressing the issues of restoring higher education institutions, it is necessary to take into account market conditions and sectoral needs for training specialists for a particular sector of the economy of a particular region. It is determined that the competitiveness of a higher education institution is the ability of a higher education institution to compete effectively in the educational market, providing quality education that meets the needs of higher education students and society, while maintaining sustainable popularity and attractiveness; this is a complex process that requires efforts on the part of the university administration, teachers and students, as well as effective cooperation with society and business.
