Abstract
This paper considers university educational environment to be an important factor in the development of students’ organizational and managerial competence. The authors discuss the approaches to the educational environment of the university, analyze its parameters and characteristics, and study the connection between the developmental educational environment and a high level of managerial competence attained by technical university graduates. The authors rely on the environmental approach which allows them to assess the impact of the educational environment on students’ organizational and managerial competence taking into account the analysis of empirical data obtained by monitoring methods of sociological research. This method also made it possible to improve self-organization and self-management skills of students, and to achieve a high level of resilience both on the environmental and personal level.

The creation of innovative clusters in the framework of the fourth industrial revolution generates a demand for new engineering personnel
In June 2018, the Center for Sociological Research at the Department of Advertising and Public Relations of the SPbPU Institute of Humanities conducted a sociological survey of students as part of monitoring satisfaction with the quality of educational programs
A high degree of students’ satisfaction with university studies was revealed, which justifies the use of the environmental approach and indicates the importance of interaction between the educational environment and students that results in synergistic effects
Summary
The creation of innovative clusters in the framework of the fourth industrial revolution generates a demand for new engineering personnel. Graduates are required to have professional competencies, and need to be ready to implement organizational and management activities, since these activities are necessary for further successful professional development and career growth. The development of organizational and managerial competence of the students while mastering educational programs becomes possible only with the substantial support from the educational environment. New educational technologies that emerged at the stage of digitalization require extensive distance learning and are aimed at a system of competencies, the core of which is independence, selfgovernment, self-control and the development of students’ individual educational trajectories. The analysis of the competencies development is impossible without sociological surveys of students, which make it possible to identify difficulties and points of growth in the interaction of the university and the student on the basis of feedback
