Abstract: The paper represents the attempt to analyze the concept and practice of implementation of the federal university project from the philosophical perspective within the context of evolution of the educational form of a classical university generated by the period of modernism. The main trends of the structural and essential transformations of the national educational system are specified. Using the case of the Volga Region Federal University in Kazan as the research subject the authors investigate the genesis and peculiarities of being of a classical university in a Russian province, the specifics of co-existence of the humanism concepts in the conditions of the Soviet regime as well as the discourse formation of the project of modernization of the Russian higher school at the beginning of the 21st century. Particular attention is paid to the project and stages of implementation of the program of development of the Kazan (Volga Region) Federal University founded on the basis of the Kazan Federal University by means of incorporation into the KFU of a number of the leading educational centers of the Republic of Tatarstan which allowed not just increasing the number of students but extending the cultural space of the university corporation. Inserting the local subject in the context of global transformations of the educational system the authors determine the place of Russia in the structure of the international higher school. By doing so they proceed from understanding the modern state of the research-educational sphere as the result of implementation of the global Enlightenment project.
