The scientific research aims to describe the content and features of the introduction of dual education in Ukraine, to investigate the prospects and advantages of the formation of practical oriented engineering education, to construct a circular model of dual professional competencies of engineering education and to establish the interconnection of structural and functional subsystems of this model. Using the methods of the systematic approach, comparative analysis, synthesis, and generalization, the authors concentrate on conceptualising and formalising the dual content of engineering education. The authors analysed the curricula of individual engineering majors, identified several discrepancies in the correlation of theoretical and practical courses, proved the need to change the curricula and bring them closer to dual education standards. To develop the dual content of specialists' professional training in the field of engineering, the authors suggest using the distinction the two subsystems – internal and external. The result of interaction between these two subsystems is the parallel acquisition of necessary applied engineering skills while studying at higher educational establishments, practical cooperation between higher educational institutions and leading enterprises of the region, rational alternation of theory and practice in the educational process. Our finding offers a significant contribution to further understanding the methodology involved in implementing the academic standards and highlighting discrepancies between traditional and dual education systems. Prospects for further research in this area may be studies on developing dual education in economic and humanities.

Evaluation of sensitivity of commercial enterprises to organizational changes should be made in terms of short-term planning for which it is important to ensure the financial results, as well as in terms of long-term planning, which is important for non-monetary indicators of development effectiveness. To solve this problem, the paper is designed model sensitivity Descriptive indicators of industrial enterprises to organizational changes, reflecting monetary and non-monetary effects of organizational change. The authors determined that the proposed model allows for the analysis of organizational change with regard to their impact on monetary and non-monetary efficiency. This paper contributes to the theory and practice at the border to ensure a balance between short-term and long-term development of industrial enterprises. Convincingly demonstrated the possibility of using research results in practice.
