Why is it important to pursue a higher education?
This program focuses on developing specialists with high competencies in teaching history and social studies. The historic-cultural standards of modern education require an advanced study of Russian history within all humanities.
For teaching history specialists will expand their extensive knowledge of world history, philosophy, the basics of law and economics, the history of culture, and the history of religion. Additionally, the growing complexity of the system that assesses the quality of education requires teachers to not only have knowledge of their core subject but also the ability to expand their knowledge through related disciplines. So, teachers have to master the appropriate knowledge, skills, and abilities constantly.
