Abstract: The paper discusses the problem of management of students’ development at university during their human capital transfer. The urgency of this problem is determined by the need for close cooperation between the university administration and students to create favorable conditions of their human capital development. The goal of this research is to analyze the role of university management in successful transfer of human capital of students. The research methodology is based on three main approaches, including community, managerial and human capital theory approaches. Results. The paper provides a description of empirical basis and research methods. The main notion in this study is human capital of students. Its structure is described, including three groups of resources within it: cognitive, behavioral and social. Some contradictions between these resources of students’ human capital are revealed and discussed. The concept of human capital transfer is analyzed from two perspectives: vertical (from course to course) and horizontal (from one activity to the other). There is a dependence of students’ human capital on the accumulated resources in the previous years, before the university studies. The paper discusses the main results of research in three parts: 1) contradictions between the structure of students’ human capital and their influence on its transfer; 2) the challenges of students’ capital transfer during COVID-19 pandemic; 3) university management as a factor affecting students’ human capital transfer. The paper argues that university administration should be involved in the solution of the problem of students’ human capital transfer. Special attention is paid to the ways to solve the abovementioned problem to support students in their human capital enrichment. Students’ human capital transfer at university is viewed as a way to move away from educational failures to professional and social success.
