Abstract

In recent years, the world fleet has changed significantly: new types of ships have appeared, this requires new constructive solutions, many functions that were performed by humans have been transferred to automation. A significant part of working processes on ships is automated, which led to an increase in shipowners' requirements for the qualification of specialists in maritime specialties. Contemporary heavy cargo sea vessels with high speeds can be operated only by highly educated specialists – professionals who have good shipboard training and own the latest methods and means of navigation. This fact largely determines the nature of the training of a modern navigator. Scientists rightly note that the main task of a higher maritime educational institution in the process of training ship navigators is to train specialists who are able and ready to manage modern technical means and a crew, navigate in various, including extreme, situations, and quickly make the right decisions. One cannot but agree with the opinion that despite the constant rapid development of marine technology, seafaring remains an area of increased danger for humans, and therefore a marine engineer must receive a fundamental education, which puts mathematical training in the first place. When considering the mathematical training of cadets of maritime higher educational institutions, it is necessary to take into account the individual abilities of each cadet. There is a need to correctly choose the way, form and methods of organizing educational activities in the process of forming and developing mathematical competence. Their understanding of the need for mathematical knowledge for successful professional activity. The article deals with the expediency of strengthening the mathematical component in the process of training higher education applicants of maritime institutions and presents innovative elements of teaching mathematical disciplines, the application of which in the educational process will make it possible to improve the quality of knowledge in mathematics, which is necessary in the professional activity of a modern navigator. Therefore, the relevance of the work is determined by the need for constant revision and improvement of the fundamental professional training of a modern navigator, in particular its mathematical component.
