Abstract

Innovative development of important mechanical engineering industries necessitates very high demands on graduates of engineering universities who plan to devote their professional activity to gears, specifically: their qualification by the time of graduation, their knowledge, abilities and skills in regard to innovation, and their communication abilities. The present paper analyzes the recent trends and fundamental aspects of higher education in Russia with regard to the successful training of gear experts at a technical university within the Bachelor program. Issues related to the teaching of various courses involving gears within the curricula of mechanical engineers and obtainment of a BS are also considered in the paper. Attention is paid to foreign language (English) competences for future gear experts. Agreement on the valid syllabi for mechanical engineers and requirements specified for graduates by the present manufacturing industry is studied through the example of one of the most sought-after majors in the field of mechanical engineering.
