They are applied during practical classes, in organizing scientific research work for teachers and students, fostering cooperation between the university and institutions of general secondary education, as well as higher education institutions in Mariupol, across Ukraine, and in arranging training, retraining, and skill improvement in the Ukrainian language for citizens of various ages and professional categories (applicants, teachers, civil servants, local government representatives, law enforcement officers).
Educational programs for which the department conducts training
learning and teaching
The department trains qualified specialists in the field of school education and language teaching. One of the key competencies of the New Ukrainian School is communication in the state language. This involves the ability to express and interpret concepts, thoughts, feelings, facts, and views orally and in writing, as well as the ability to respond to language means for the full spectrum of social and cultural phenomena. It also trains specialists in Ukrainian philology who can edit texts of various styles and genres, work with documentation, and communicate proficiently in the state language.
Students actively participate in scientific research, presenting their work at student scientific conferences and conferences for young scientists. They also publish the results of their own scientific research on Ukrainian philology and methods of teaching philological disciplines in publications of various levels, including professional ones. A student scientific society operates on the basis of the Center for
Ukrainian Studies, securing the third place in the MSU scientific societies contest in 2022.
To provide high-quality educational services and ensure the employment of graduates, the Department of Ukrainian Philology maintains close contact with employers, engaging practitioners in conducting classes. Participants in the educational process also have the opportunity to study, do internships, and conduct scientific activities at foreign institutions of higher education through numerous academic mobility programs offered by Mariupol State University.
