Abstract

Modernization of the system of engineering education is determined by globalization and internationalization of the world community. In the 21st century, the educational process requires perfect methodological knowledge and new approaches to the higher engineering education system in the global space. At the moment, higher education focuses on continuous training of specialists able to transfer national, cultural, and inter-ethnic values. Foreign language learning is acquisition of knowledge and skills which develop a personality. The purpose of the article is to describe the multicultural competence of engineering students on the basis of its components. The article specifies the content and development stages for the multicultural competence and identifies levels and criteria of the structural-functional model of development of the multicultural competence in engineering students.
