Abstract
The development of science diplomacy is currently shaping the global trend of integrating exchange research programs. This vector of science development is becoming particularly important against the backdrop of the transformation of digital and technological infrastructure and the emergence of engineering hubs, technology platforms, and industrial parks. The purpose of the article is to analyze the potential of academic mobility as a factor in intensifying the language competence of participants in the educational process. The research pays special attention to the study of the processes of development of global scientific, technical and research centers for the implementation of leading international projects. A theoretical analysis of the current problems of academic mobility is carried out, including the low level of opportunities to attract foreign specialists, difficulties in financing exchange projects, and insufficient functionality of the system for supporting scientific contacts. It has been found that the development of international academic mobility requires an upgrade of state policy in this area, minimizing the risk of outflow of competitive researchers from the national scientific field. The necessity of forming an integrated system of support for the academic mobility of scientists is substantiated. Ways to increase the importance of a scientific career in modern society and intensify the motivation of participants in the educational process by integrating a system of additional incentives for research development are proposed. The importance of maximizing the preservation of leading scientific personnel in the national educational field through the integration of targeted co-financing programs and stimulation of scientific activity is proved.
