Improving Professional Engineering Training for Machine-Building Enterprises
The article makes an attempt to solve the problem of improving professional engineering training for the machine-building industry in a technical university. In the process of training, an educational environment should guide students through the educational program to realize the importance of the engineering profession. It is supposed to set a direction of engineering thinking and to add social, ecological, pedagogical components to technical competence. Future engineers are expected to be able to create a comfortable environment. To prevent the environmentally negative effects of industry it is proposed to include the development of nature-friendly and renovation technologies and skills of their application in the educational process. Methods and technologies of the pedagogical process should be oriented towards the development of innovative activity of specialists. Technical universities are called upon to create new interdisciplinary knowledge, and education is an important part of this process. The implementation of scientific research of universities is proposed to be carried out through commercial activities organized on the basis of companies or start-ups with the participation of teachers, postgraduates, students.
