These changes determine the changes in the content of professional education, which provides the formation of general and professional competences. When integrating the content of professional education, it is necessary to develop an integrative content of education that is implemented through the integration of working professions, the combination of the functions of workers in complex professions. That will allow moving to a higher intellectual level of educational and cognitive activity and ensuring the interconnection of general, polytechnic and professional education through the synthesis of knowledge and skills. The study integrates the content of special disciplines “Building materials”, “Technical mechanics”, “Calculation of building structures” into a single integrative course “Building materials and calculation of building structures”, which includes general scientific, technical, professional, and private-professional blocks.
