Abstract

The issues of the formation of a professional, the features of the manifestation of a human person in his/her professional activity, the interconnection and interdependence of human life and the scope of his professional activity are extremely relevant in the 21st century.The article analyzes the problem of forming the value attitude instudents to the humanitarian component of professionaltraining and professional culture of the personality of future specialists in engineering andtechnical profile at the present stage of development of higher professional education in Ukraine in the context of its integration into the global educational space.At the end of the twentieth century, it became customary to consider almost the only function of technical education -the training of a specialist capable of performing specific production tasks. However, modern production requires engineering and technical specialists to perform atypical functions in the past, requires a rethinking of many of the former and the creation of new world outlooks and values, without which the revival and existence of society is impossible.High-quality training of engineering workers cannot be limited to the purely technical cycle of training subjects. Life and modern production requires an engineer to have knowledge on social and humanitarian subjects, knowledge from areas related to engineering and technical training, computer technology, as well as knowledge of his/hernative language andknowledge of foreign languages as well. The authors believe that one of the main tasks of the higher education system is purposefulwork on the formation of a professional culture of future specialists, and the formation of a value-based attitude to the humanitarian aspects of life and professional activity is an integral part of this culture. However, professional culture is a complex multilateral construct, the formation of which begins on the university bench and continues throughout life.In the framework of professionaltraining in a higher education institution, we can only talk about laying the foundations of such a personal construct. Consequently, the need to form a new social environment, to develop such priorities of social development, where the main element is the person himself, has become obvious and universally recognized in the world today.Keywords:value attitude, humanitarian component of professionaltraining, professional culture of a specialist, activity, axiological and cultural studies approaches, personality-oriented model of higher education, professional training
