Adaptation of Polytechnical Education to Industrial Production

Abstract

Insufficient level of professional training of engineering personnel is noted. Factors affecting disbalance of links between modern vocational education and real engineering practice are given. Young engineers engaged in design and development do not have enough modern instrumental training in the field of information technology, as well as interdisciplinary knowledge and system competencies to use technologies for the full life cycle of innovative products. In professional training of technical personnel, the changes aimed to shorten adaptation of young specialists in the workplace and encourage the speedy introduction of methods and technologies of digital economy into engineering practice are imminent. An overview of innovative approaches used in training of engineering personnel by leading Russian universities is given.Graphic training is the first discipline in technical students’ professional orientation. In the context of substantive training, it is important to create a learning environment that is close to the professional one. Examples of practice-oriented study assignments based on the method of projects implemented by students in the course of independent work are given. Innovation in the development of individual tasks is possibility to execute projects in 3D format. Effectiveness of the proposed innovative training technology is confirmed by the given statistical data.
