Summary
The higher education system for engineering in Russia is undergoing a transition to a new educational paradigm - the professional training of specialists in a holistic manner. Addressing the need for sustainable use of natural resources, energy conservation, environmental protection, prevention of technological accidents, and risk management requires the active participation of engineers, with their particular knowledge and skills. The goal of education must be training specialists within a holistic life paradigm, so that they can be responsible citizens. Engineers trained in a systemic and holistic manner can become change agents in the practical implementation of the concept of sustainable development. According to UNESCO [1], education or the transmission, acquisition, creation and adaptation of information, knowledge, skills and values, is a key lever of sustainable development
