In order for the educational process to respond to the constantly changing demand for specialists, our faculty are provided with the opportunity to creatively search for and implement optimal forms, methods and content of education, as well as to employ modern information technologies. As a result, the Institute teaches the students to think, reason, and independently study new models of knowledge.

The uniqueness of the program lies in the fundamental but also practical orientation of training, the main principle of which is to increase the role of students' independent work.
