Abstract

Introduction. There is an acute shortage of labor resources in the modern labor market, especially with engineering qualifications. A significant part of university students do not reach the stage of obtaining a diploma. Efficient spending of federal budget funds for training of high-class technical specialists becomes extremely necessary. The purpose of this study is to identify the main strategies of choosing a university among first-year students participating in the “Priority-2030ˮ program. Materials and Methods. The goals and objectives of this descriptive study suggest obtaining a more complete understanding of professional and educational applicants’ strategies when choosing technical universities. The questionnaire method implemented in the form of an online survey was used as the main method of collecting primary empirical data. The survey was conducted in May 2023 (n = 1,888). Results. The main motives and factors influencing the professional and educational strategy of choosing a higher educational institution are determined: the characteristics of the university (its type and academic authority, position in university rankings, its transport accessibility and the availability of dormitories); prospects for further employment in the speciality received; the financial capabilities of the applicantʼs family, the main trajectories of admission to the university. The most relevant aspects of the attractiveness of the university for applicants are formulated. Discussion and Conclusion. The authorʼs conclusions contribute to the development of scientific approaches to the study of trends in the development of higher education, the theory and practice of organizing the educational process in educational organizations, the problems of professional self-determination and career guidance, methods of supporting studentsʼ professional choice. The materials of the article can be useful to Russian universities in developing an effective system of career guidance.

技术大学申请者的专业和教育选择策略
导言。现代劳动力市场严重缺乏劳动力资源,尤其是具有工程专业资格的劳动力。相当一部分大学生没有达到获得文凭的阶段。有效利用联邦预算资金培养高级技术专家变得极为必要。本研究旨在确定参与 "优先-2030ˮ计划 "的一年级新生选择大学的主要策略。这项描述性研究的目的和目标是更全面地了解专业和教育申请人在选择技术大学时的策略。以在线调查的形式实施的问卷调查法是收集主要经验数据的主要方法。调查于 2023 年 5 月进行(n = 1 888)。确定了影响选择高等教育机构的专业和教育战略的主要动机和因素:大学的特点(其类型和学术权威、在大学排名中的位置、交通便利程度和是否有宿舍);在所学专业进一步就业的前景;申请人家庭的经济能力;大学录取的主要轨迹。讨论和结论。作者的结论有助于在研究高等教育发展趋势、教育机构组织教育过程的理论和实践、专业自决和职业指导问题、支持学生专业选择的方法等方面发展科学方法。文章中的材料对俄罗斯高校建立有效的职业指导体系很有帮助。
