Abstract. The purpose of the research was to study the process of reproduction of scientific personnel in connection with the need to activate the processes of developing high-tech products in the context of ensuring economic growth of Belarus and Russia in modern conditions. The authors analyzed the following main issues: 1) reproduction of scientific personnel in the system of higher education; 2) analysis of the market of scientific personnel; 3) effectiveness of the functioning of the R&D sector of the Union State of Russia and Belarus. The main research methods were: factor analysis method, comparative analysis, indexing method, matrix method, correlation analysis. Statistical data processing was carried out using the Microsoft Excel program, SPSS Statistics. To analyze the development of the R&D sector in the Union State, the authors suggested a system of six economic indicators to assess the effectiveness: share of expenditures on R&D in the total volume of budget expenditures, in the country’s GDP, share of domestic expenditures on R&D in the country’s GDP, labor productivity in the R&D sector, volume of expenditures for R&D per an employee, coefficient of return of internal costs for R&D. The data obtained as a result of the study allowed us to draw a number of conclusions, including: 1) the state of both Belarus and Russia pays attention to the development of the R&D sector, which is characterized by an increase in funding for science; 2) in both countries, a number of problems were identified that require coordination of efforts and immediate solutions. A number of similar problems were identified for Belarus and Russia in the implementation of the strategy for the development of the R&D sector, which justifies the need to develop a joint strategy for the development of research and innovation activities of the Union State of Belarus and Russia. The results of the study can be useful both to employees of the R&D sector and university teachers, as well as to heads of regional and municipal levels of various sectors of the economy.
Key words: Belarus, Russia, economic growth, high-tech products, scientific personnel, personnel, salary, efficiency, higher education, student youth, bachelor’s degree, postgraduate, master’s program, doctoral studies, scientific potential, labor assessment.
