FORMATION PROGRAM IN MATHEMATICS AT THE TECHNICAL UNIVERSITY AND THE QUALITY OF KNOWLEDGE

The aim of the study is to discuss the maintenance of the educational programs for mathematical disciplines existing at the higher school and problems of teaching mathematics at training of specialists of the engineering directions.

Activity and competence basis of mathematical education of engineers can not be increased within a tough part of the conservative academic programs in mathematics. Program in mathematics for undergraduate engineering training areas do not meet the needs of engineering professional education. They meet the requirements of educational standards only in form, but in fact, are copies of traditional academic programs of the last century. Absence of accurate recommendations about reconstruction of mathematical chairs of curricula, operating decades habitual for teachers, leads only to formal mechanical reduction of the hours which are taken away on studying of the demanded sections and subjects.

Methods. The methods involve analysis, generalization, and written anonymous survey among students.

Results and scientific novelty. Analysis of existing programs, the results of their assimilation, and the teaching of mathematics in general leads to the need to put forward new real principles of the program of mathematical disciplines. As such new principles of selection of the content of mathematical preparation the principles of lacunarity, reliability, minimalism, selectivity and ICT-support are offered. The methods of realization of these principles are the following: analysis of competences, analysis of scientific articles and theses on group of the scientific specialties connected with the directions of training, carrying out analogies, interviewing of key experts and teachers, expert estimates, formalization of requirements, etc. Restructuring of mathematics programs is designed to develop logical and algorithmic thinking of engineering students; to cultivate an applied mathematical culture; formation of insight and erudition in mathematics application.

Practical significance. Research implications may be useful to managers and training specialists of Mathematical Departments of technical universities, program builders in mathematics and educational standards in engineering fields.
