Role of universities of the Republic of Mordovia in sociocultural adaptation of migrant students
The Russian Federation is a multinational state. The globalization of the modern world leads to an increase in international relations. All this is reflected in the main directions of state policy in the field of strengthening international cooperation and the formation of a respectful attitude towards the historical values and cultural heritage of the peoples of our state. The authors consider the main areas of activity of regional universities and public organizations in the field of adaptation of migrant students to a new socio-cultural space for them. Since migrant students are a special category of the population, due to their age and social status. It is characterized by a set of special problems. Migrant students face many of the stressful influences of their new living environment. The more quickly they adapt to new conditions, the more successful their learning process will be. The adaptation of foreign students is of a long and temporary nature, as it is a very complex process. Migrant students face great difficulties, including: a new sociocultural environment, unusual climatic conditions, unfamiliar language and educational system. As practice shows, for a large number of foreign students, getting an education in Russia is a so-called "springboard" to their future life. While receiving Russian education, foreign students hope to move to Russia for permanent residence and obtain citizenship of our state. Mordovian universities continue to increase the export of educational services. Every year the geography of the countries is expanding, the admission of students from abroad is increasing. This trend will continue, as one of the objectives of the national project "Education" is to increase the number of foreign students.
