Abstract

One of the main directions of the educational policy of higher pharmaceutical education is the formation of a graduate researcher to create advanced technologies in the field of life sciences. The optimal conceptual basis for the management of students' research work is the project approach. The purpose is to study the possibilities of using the project approach of the RMVOK–6 PMI methodology when choosing a model for managing the life cycle of research work (R&D) of students in higher pharmaceutical education. Materials and methods. The models under study are rigid models (cascade, iterative, V-model) and flexible models (Agile models, AZ model). The assessment was carried out by 19 experts in the fields of knowledge of the "Six-pointed star" (SPS) PMBOK model according to the Likert scale. Results and discussion. It is established that rigid and flexible models can be selectively applied in the research of junior and senior students, depending on the priority of individual areas of knowledge of the SPS PMBOK model and on the scale of work. Among rigid models, the iterative model and the V-model were better than the cascade model in some areas of knowledge and at a certain scale of research. Among flexible models, Agile models outperformed the AZ model in terms of "time" and "cost", and the AZ model was better than Agile models in terms of "quality" and "risk". Conclusion. The preferential opportunities for the application of project lifecycle management models in the research of students in each of the fields of knowledge of the SPS PMBOK model are shown. For a more detailed study of the process of choosing a project lifecycle management model for research students, it is necessary to create an algorithm for this process.
