Abstract

The importance of the problem of motivation in training a specialist is dictated by the qualitatively changing conditions of modern society and the action of those new requirements that are imposed on the learning process and the formation of professionally significant competencies. This predetermines the restructuring of education in general and each of its aspects, especially in the training of future specialists aimed at the successful completion of educational activities, the manifestation of professional and creative persistence in solving difficult problems and realizing their potential. Basing on the analysis of scientific sources, we can formulate the purpose of our study, which is to acknowledge the features of the motivational complex of Russian students in comparison with foreign ones studying in universities in our country. Basing on the results, we came to the conclusion that there are still differences in the characteristics of the motivational complex of the selected groups. Russian students are more focused on acquiring professional competencies that will ensure their future success and self-realization in their chosen profession. For foreign students from the near abroad, the most significant is pragmatic motivation with a focus on personal prestige in their ethnic group. The formed optimal motivational complex ensures the individual’s achievement of success in the course of constant competition with himself, in the desire to achieve new, higher results in comparison with his previous ones. The process and result of the development of the complex under consideration has a decisive influence on the professional development of students, future specialists.
