Foreign language as an integral part of students’ vocational training in non-linguistic universities

Abstract

The complexity of the implementation of the tasks arises due to the specific features that are inherent in non-linguistic universities, namely: 1. Unequal level of training of students and their knowledge of a foreign language when entering non-linguistic specialties of higher education. 2. Low level of motivation of students to learn a foreign language. 3. The complexity of developing a single educational and methodological complex for students of non-linguistic universities who have different communicative competencies in foreign languages. 4. The problem of working with students who at the university are actually forced to start learning a foreign language "from scratch". 5. Strict restrictions on the learning process in time. 6. A long break between completing a foreign language course before the entrance exam to the master's degree. 7. Professional orientation of the foreign language course in accordance with the specialty chosen by students. Thus, a foreign language for professional communication helps the development of the student, his professional orientation, and is very important today. It has great educational and developmental potential.
