WOULD I GO TO ENGINEERS? OR ABOUT THE PROBLEM OF CHOOSING A PROFESSIONAL PATH BY MODERN STUDENTS (ON THE EXAMPLE OF VOLGSTU) ^{[№ 4 ' 2023]}
The original research, carried out on the example of VolgGTU, presented the problems of the admission campaign of a technical university. Among current first-year students, about half do not plan to work after graduation in their specialty. The results of the survey confirm the data obtained by other researchers. An online survey was conducted in December 2022 using a Google Form among students of ten first-year faculties of VolgGTU (n=558, of which 27.2% were women, 725.8% were men), the sample was not random. The first-year students were chosen because their intentions are not manifest in nature, but have already been implemented. In the course of the study, the three most massive cohorts were identified, their life trajectories before entering the university were described. They differ, first of all, in their plans for the future professional life. The first group intends to devote their professional path to work in the profession received at the university. For this group, the representative opinion of relatives and friends is important. The second group doubts their choice and is not sure that in the future they will work in their specialty. The third group is represented mainly by graduates of the secondary vocational education system. This group of students, who already have life experience and professional skills, do not plan to work in their specialty at all, believing that having a higher education diploma will ensure their successful career. Analyzed, also on the example of VolgGTU and with the involvement of other sources, data on the statistics of high school students who take the exam in natural sciences (mathematics profile, physics, chemistry, computer science). From year to year, the number of applicants in such a set of passed exams is decreasing. It is concluded that it is necessary to change the system of vocational guidance. First of all, it will be necessary to update the principle of polytechnics in the system of general education, which allows not only to acquaint schoolchildren with modern industrial technologies, but also to carry out early career guidance. In addition, in order to reduce the shortage of teachers of natural sciences and improve their competencies, retraining on the basis of the country’s leading technical universities will be relevant. All these measures will make it possible to more widely attract schoolchildren to participate in specialized Olympiads in the natural sciences.
