Problem Statement: Modernization of Russian education, training of engineering specialists that meet the world's educational standards. Research Questions: What needs to be changed in Russia's education system so that the engineering specialists meet the requirements of the world's standards? Purpose of the Study: Research Methods: Comparison of competencies of different Russian engineering universities' graduates and the standards of international accreditation agencies and organizations (CDIO, ABET, FENAI, EMF, APEC, Washington Accord) Findings: The comparison of various educational standards and expected learning outcomes has revealed that Russian universities do not pay sufficient attention to development of the invention competency. Conclusions: To facilitate the invention competency development, Russian universities need to use the practicebased approach to learning together with active employer involvement and active solving of actual production tasks as early as the learning stage.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
