Methodological Work
The educational and methodological support for the educational process in the Institute's disciplines includes a set of regulatory, educational, and methodological materials necessary for the implementation of the educational program and the achievement of planned learning outcomes. The Institute's departments implement the educational process in accordance with their licenses and curricula developed based on the State Educational Standards for Higher Professional Education and model curricula.
