It is emphasized that the real competence of a higher school teacher in the scientific and methodological sphere is provided by structural relationships of the above elements, which forms the intellectual capital and the capital of experience of professional and pedagogical activity of a univer-sity teacher's personality. Conclusion dwells upon the fact that the result of the formation of scientific and methodological competence among the teaching staff in this case becomes pedagogically appropriate and competent organization of the educational process in the university as an economic product.
