Abstract
The problems and organizational and methodological approach to conducting technological and design practices of master’s students studying in the direction of 04/08/01 «Construction» are presented. It is proposed to organize these types of practices at the basic enterprise of the construction complex as a single process based on a combination of interdisciplinary, group and project approaches. Undergraduates divided into subgroups successively implement the common task to the team, first on technological, and then on design practice. The main task of the technological practice is to audit the quality and marketing systems of the base enterprise, which ends with the definition of its production and marketing problems. After defending the report, which contains, in addition to the team, an individual task for each member of the subgroup, undergraduates are given a task for project practice. Being a logical continuation of the previous one, it is associated with the development of measures to eliminate the identified problems, the calculation of financial costs for their implementation and the forecast assessment of changes in the cost of finished products. The approach considered in the article has been implemented for undergraduates within educational program «Quality Expertise and Marketing of Building Materials» at the Voronezh State Technical University. The proposed methodology of organizing practices contributes to improving the level of professional competencies that are formed in the process of practical training of undergraduates. The methodology, according to the authors, can be replicated for other master’s degree programs in the field of «Construction».
