The nature and characteristics of any approach to the language situation in Ukrainian universities, in the education system in general and in the linguistic competence of pupils and students directly depend on the understanding of the goals and objectives are achieved and are put in that system. Compliance with the language situation and linguistic competence to the strategic objectives of national and state development is provided by the state language policy. Ukrainian scientists approaches to the understanding of the purpose of education are distinguished by a tendency to focus on applied aspects of the educational process and its role in the process of nation creation and formation of national identity.
