From the author: Where to go to study? – that’s what reference books on choosing a profession used to be called. Your humble servant, who calls himself a career guidance specialist, 11/24. 2018 visited the 48th Moscow International Exhibition “Education and Career” A huge number of pavilions representing various educational institutions in Moscow, other cities of Russia and foreign educational institutions. An endless number of young people (queuing for half an hour at the cloakroom), various master classes. So, only by VERY LOUD sounds could one understand - some kind of shooting - ballistic missiles, a brass band - apparently a conservatory? Universities and colleges with legal education programs, coupled with economics and management, are more represented. In creative educational institutions - design . I was surprised that in the field of management there are few such necessary specialty “Human Resource Management”. But in many universities there is a specialty “State and Municipal Management”. The Physics Department of Moscow State University pleased with the demonstration of miracle glasses (I don’t remember what they are called correctly) with virtual reality. I walked “virtually” through the laboratories of Moscow State University - it was very interesting, most importantly, it was unusual, it was in a different reality. A queue lined up for the virtual reality aircraft landing simulator on the runway. I also wanted to try, but I decided that people like me “are not accepted as cosmonauts” (since my spatial intelligence leaves much to be desired..) I was glad that some technical colleges (secondary specialized educational institutions) give a deferment from the army for the period of training. In Russia, most of the vacancies are for specialists with secondary specialized education, mainly technical. They train and graduate specialists, mostly with higher education, and in the humanities! This gap between the requirements of society and the training of specialists reveals the problem of employing graduates in the profile of their specialty. Management" is a bachelor's degree program that combines several specialties. Within its framework, brand managers, marketers, logisticians, and industry managers are trained. Leading financial and economic universities are the National Research University Higher School of Economics, Federal University, Plekhanov Russian Economic University, State University of Economics and RANEPA. One of the youngest and most promising areas of undergraduate education is at the intersection of IT and management. You can get a diploma in business informatics at economics, management and technical universities. Since there are several specializations in this area, some universities initially admit applicants to a specific training program. Thus, the Financial University trains IT managers for business, the Moscow State Pedagogical University trains specialists in technological entrepreneurship, and the RANEPA trains business analysts. In Moscow, eight technical universities train construction workers, seven of them have budget places. Often the direction of training is determined by the profile of the university. For example, at MADI students specialize in the construction of roads, bridges and airfields, at the Timiryazev Moscow Agricultural Academy - in hydraulic engineering construction, and at MGSU the whole range of construction specialties is represented - from environmental engineering and energy construction to expertise and real estate management. And where, you ask me, is testing? But where? If you choose to, for example, according to the Klimov test Ch-p (man-nature) coupled with Ch-T (man-technology), then here it is - the Institute of Food Production. You should have seen with what pride and dignity the student of this institute answered my question: are there any internships and how can I get a job after graduating from this university? “Well, what are you talking about, from the first year we do internships directly in production, and by the 4th year almost everyone works in their own profile.” What profession would the author choose if she had to choose? Here is a new profession, training is planned from 2020. Let's wait, what are our years? Is it possible to master it, taking into account your first and second specialties, as well as vast experience?. 8915 – 197-7381
