CONCEPTUAL APPROACHES AND PRINCIPLES IN THE DEVELOPMENT OF PROFESSIONAL-PRACTICAL COMPETENCE OF FUTURE ENGINEERS

Abstract

The development of professional-practical competence in future engineers is critical for their successful integration into the workforce. This article explores the conceptual approaches and principles that underpin the cultivation of these competencies. Emphasizing the integration of theoretical knowledge with practical skills, we examine pedagogical strategies, curriculum design, and the role of technological advancements in engineering education. The analysis draws on contemporary educational theories and case studies from engineering programs globally, offering insights into effective methods for developing professional-practical competence.
