Introduction. Corruption in higher education continues to spread in modern society. Changing social relations in higher education can exacerbate corruption offenses in the educational environment. The purpose of the study is to analyze the anti-corruption mechanisms of university education management and make an empirical assessment of their effectiveness. Materials and Methods. With the help of comparative and theoretical analysis, a model of anti-corruption management of university education is constructed. The modeling method made it possible to interpret the term “anti-corruption management mechanism in higher education”. The empirical base of the study rides on the results of a survey of 345 graduates of Yekaterinburg universities to identify the causes of corruption, the corruption situation, ways to prevent it, and an empirical assessment of the effectiveness of the proposed anti-corruption mechanisms of university education management. Results. The classification of types and the content of anti-corruption mechanisms for managing university education is proposed on the basis of the policy pursued by the state. The developed model of anti-corruption management in university education includes four interrelated mechanisms: socio-psychological, legal, moral, and economic management ones. Discussion and Conclusion. The results obtained contribute to the anti-corruption activities of the state. The proposed model of anti-corruption management is universal. Social management mechanisms have the least impact on the effectiveness of anti-corruption management.
