Integration of Foreign Experiences in Developing Socio-Historical Competencies of Engineering Students

This article examines the theoretical and practical aspects of integrating foreign educational experiences into the process of developing socio-historical competencies among engineering students. Within the framework of the study, competency-based approaches widely applied in the higher education systems of developed countries, interdisciplinary education models, and the role of digital pedagogical technologies in engineering education were systematically analyzed. In particular, the mechanisms for shaping students’ historical thinking, social responsibility, and civic engagement through the integration of engineering disciplines with humanities and social sciences are explored. The research findings indicate that adapting foreign educational experiences while considering the historical, cultural, and social characteristics of the national education system contributes to improving the quality of engineering education, enriching educational content, and preparing students not only as professionals but also as socially mature individuals. This article serves as an important foundation for developing scientific and practical recommendations aimed at modernizing engineering education and enhancing socio-historical competencies.
