Besides, some synthetic, integrative methods of research are used that are part of the methodology of interdisciplinarity, actual for the modern socio-humanistic science. The result of the research is the grounded author’s legal position of the advisability of the personal self-development of a student as well as a teacher without whom the obtaining of the qualitative higher legal education seems problematic and also the performing of the professional legal activity in the moral legal direction.
