Высшая школа и продвижение в науке

The Higher school and the ways to science.

Student participation in research is one of the most effective

methods for training highly - qualified specialists capable of taking part

in the rapidly developing scientific and technological revilution.

Students are encouraged to participate widely in research while still

at college. the programmeof studies is designed in such a way as to draw

students ever deeper into scientific research.

Research enables the students to improve their knowledge and put to

practical use the things they learn at lectures, seminars and laboratories.

Furthermore, it enables them to realize the practical value of their

knowledge, to master the basic experimental techniques, to learn how to

handle the modern equipment and analyse the results of experiment.

Such students graduate as highly - skilled specialists. And this

actually is one the most important tasks facing college.

There are student research societies at every univesity and

institute. Contests,

competitions ans exhibitions, based on student research have become an

established tradition.Every year a country-wide student contest is held for

the best research project, the winners being awarded special medals and

diplomas.

Students are engaged in research under guidance of professrs,

instructors, engineers and post-graduates.As a rule, students write their

term papers and graduation theses on problems of their research work. They

operate experimental and industrial installations, conduct theoretical

investigations, read scientific literature on their speciality.

Many term papers and graduation theses include elements of research

done at some higher school department on contract with industrial

enterprises. Term papers, research work, graduation theses of practical

importance to industry - such are the stages of turning students into

highly-skilled thinking
