Summary/Abstract: The article is an attempt of categorization and characterization of the educational space of modern Europe. At the beginning the author defined and determined its boundaries with particular reference to the European Union. The basic deliberations concentrate on the analysis of the dimensions and functions of educational space of modern Europe, underlying its multidimensionality and specificity of functioning, inter alia, in political, social, economic field. Three dimensions of the educational space have been considered: social-cultural, material, virtual-technological and its three functions: informational, axiological, and social ones. In the presented studies the author referred to a few scientific methods appropriate for social sciences: the method of system, comparative, and institutional- legal analysis. In these analyses both the sources of primary character and the literature on the subject were used. The official internet pages of the entities functioning in or studying the European educational space were widely used.
