Instructions

The knowledge base of future linguists is laid in the school. Those who want to connect their lives with linguistics need to pay special attention to such school subjects like Russian language, literature, foreign language and history. It is good if the profile of the school (class) has the appropriate specialization. It is useful to participate in linguistic olympiads, attend special circles and additionally study with tutors. When learning a foreign language, it is useful to travel to countries where they speak this language.

Professional education linguists takes place at the linguistic or philological faculties of universities. The most famous higher educational institutions in Russia, where you can get a linguistic education: Moscow State Linguistic University(MSLU), Russian state Pedagogical University named after A.I. Herzen in St. Petersburg (RSPU) and St. Petersburg State University(St. Petersburg State University). It is important for applicants to get excellent USE results in Russian and foreign languages, as well as or history (depending on the requirements of the university). Those who graduated from school before 2009 will have to pass internal tests of a specific educational institution.

Linguistic education can be obtained in full-time, part-time or distance form. Full-time education is the most effective, especially useful for those who receive their first education. Correspondence form training is chosen by people who combine work with study. The distant form is popular with specialists who receive a second higher education.

Obtaining a linguistic education as a second higher is the path of personal development and career growth. But in this case, the learning process will necessarily be paid. In addition, not every employer is ready to let the subordinate go to the session. Higher educational institutions meet such students halfway: they make up a convenient schedule, are more loyal to the timing of exams, and provide an opportunity to study.

You can get a linguistic or philological education in college (secondary professional education). They come here immediately after the ninth grade. Having received the necessary skills for employment as a linguist assistant or, you can master all the subtleties of this work in the process.

Linguistic education is the widest range of opportunities that allows you to work in many areas. Proficiency in a foreign language allows you to find a worthy job and ensure stable career growth.

Every third graduate of a domestic university decides to get a second higher education. Every second person thinks about the possibility of mastering an additional profession / parallel specification. What is this - fashion, an objective evolution of intelligence?

Experts insist that VO II can be both. It all depends on the purpose of the training. The correct mission - moving forward - is accompanied by difficulties: the choice of a profession should be a win-win. For many of our students, this choice has already been made; it has become the Faculty of Linguistics.

Moreover, we are talking about linguistics, and not alternative "shortened" programs offered everywhere. The specialties of a linguist from Synergy University are not an analogy of the “old” in. lang., aimed at strengthening the knowledge of languages, mastering the basics of the profession of a translator.

The prospects for combining the profession are inexhaustible. Linguistics opens up opportunities, but only for those who are ready to seek, master, use these opportunities.

A specialist who has received a higher linguistic education can become an ordinary teacher in an educational institution, and a translator, and an expert in intercultural communication. This profession opens up a lot of opportunities - work in joint ventures, diplomatic missions, expeditions to different corners. the globe studying ancient manuscripts.

It will be difficult to compose a certain TOP-5 of such a number of specialties. However, the most popular and in demand were and remain translators and linguists who are fluent in several languages ​​(at least three: English, some second European and, preferably, one of the rarer languages ​​- most often the Eastern group). Since the demand for the production of multilingual technical documentation, blogging in foreign languages, filling sites, etc. in our time it is only growing).

Where to get education

There are 380 universities providing linguistic education (both specialized and those with linguistic faculties) in the Russian Federation. Of course, the level of teaching, prestige, demand for specialists in the labor market after graduation, and others comparative characteristics each such institution of higher education is quite different. It is difficult to list the list of all institutions within one article, and therefore it probably makes sense to highlight only the TOP-5, whose graduates have the highest ratings among and even abroad:

1. (MGPU). Theoretically, the Faculty of Foreign Languages ​​trains personnel for secondary schools - but practically about 50% of graduates “with a bang” are taken by serious travel agencies and firms in need of high-level translators.
2. (MSLU) named after Maurice Torez and especially his translation department. The demand for those who graduated from it is practically not inferior to the number 1 of the list.
3. Famous in every way. Linguists are specialists in international communication here they are considered the best in the Russian Federation, primarily due to the unsurpassed fundamental base obtained thanks to the country's teaching elite.
4. (RUDN University) and graduates of his linguistics department have no competitors in the field international relations, cultural studies and intercultural communication. The reason is, of course, in the contingent of foreign citizens.
5. (NGLU) named after Dobrolyubov. The only provincial institution of higher learning that has outstripped in most indicators even all St. Petersburg and most Moscow higher educational institutions for more than a dozen years. A clear confirmation of his class is a stable stay in the top five of all best universities Russia in the rating of the Potanin Charitable Foundation, at the top of the rating of higher educational institutions included in the Federal scholarship program, the rating of the Ministry of Education and Science of the Russian Federation, as well as competitions "European quality" under the auspices of the European Commission and "100 best universities in Russia."

The new FGOS-3 provides hours for linguistic students in the following subjects:

Forms of education

Education in linguistic universities is carried out in all forms permitted by law - including full-time, part-time, distance and evening (part-time). There is also (with a different proportionality for each university) a division into budget and paid forms.

Second higher education

Getting a second higher linguistic education is exclusively paid - but there are no other restrictions and differences from getting the first one in universities of this direction.

If you already have a specialty, but would like to study English, a second higher education is what you need to make a career jump. There are very few specialists in Russia who are fluent in foreign languages, so they are highly valued by employers.

It is not necessary for a professional translator to accompany a businessman and help him in correspondence with foreign business partners. You can translate articles and literary works- it pays well.

An excellent option for using knowledge of a foreign language: publish your own materials abroad on the profile of first education. After all, it often happens that a talented specialist (mathematician, engineer, physicist) stays in poverty only because he does not know, for example, English and cannot correspond with potential investors, employers or business partners from abroad.

Quality of education in Russia

Analysts O. V. Petrova and V. V. Sdobnikov note the impossibility of satisfying the quantitative needs of society for highly qualified translators by the existing system of higher education in the Russian Federation. This discrepancy between demand and supply inhibits international and intercultural communication, while all the technical possibilities for its implementation are there.

Experts believe that two factors prevent the teaching of foreign languages ​​in the Russian Federation to a qualitatively new level:

1. The modernization of higher education in the field of foreign languages, which has begun in Russia, is not going well enough due to the outdated approaches to teaching practiced by universities. Also, progress is hindered by the use in higher educational institutions methods borrowed from high school practice; and resource-intensive, expensive teaching technologies.
2. V teaching practice Until now, approaches are used in which the emphasis is on the formation of individual competencies of the future linguist, and not on the broad, harmonious and integral development of his professionalism and personality.
