REZIME: Ciljevi visokog obrazovanja ostvaruju se kroz delatnost visokoškolskih ustanova, koju, u skladu sa garantovanom autonomijom, vrše na osnovu svojih opštih akata. Zakonom se određuje koji subjekti imaju javno ovlašćenje, odnosno koji subjekti su nadležni da donose odnosne akte, kao i opšti krug pitanja koja se tim aktima uređuju. Ustav Republike Srbije propisuje da svako ima pravo na visoko obrazovanje i u tom pogledu, Zakon o visokom obrazovanju Republike Srbije uređuje sistem visokog obrazovanja, uslove i način obavljanja delatnosti visokog obrazovanja, kao i osnove njegovog finansiranja, te druga pitanja od značaja za obavljanje ove delatnosti. Organi poslovođenja, organi upravljanja i stručni organi visokoškolskih ustanova, specijalizirani su za donošenje jedne vrste akata, čime je omogućeno da se ti akti, shodno njihovoj prirodi ili predmetu donose na odgovarajući način. Samim tim, visokoškolske ustanove, na osnovu Zakona o visokom obrazovanju, oblast svog delovanja regulišu donošenjem statuta, pravilnika, poslovnika i drugih opštih akata. Cilj rada je da se ukaže na pravnu prirodu opštih akata visokoškolskih ustanova, kao i njihovo mesto u hijerarhiji pravnog, a time i visokoobrazovnog sistema Republike Srbije.
