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
