Abstract

Hydrotechnical construction has always been considered a prestigious profession, which attracted the most talented students. The international practice of education also involves the allocation of transport maritime engineering from general and civil construction. The Institute of Water Transport in the structure of Admiral Makarov State University of Maritime and Inland Shipping considers the development of polytechnic education for the specialty of hydrotechnical construction as an urgent task for the future. Gradual transition to the system of polytechnic education is carried out by conducting laboratory practices and works in the field, where students independently participate in engineering surveys, studies of natural materials and soil, perform geodetic work. A new trend in development for hydraulic engineering construction is the use of building information modelling (BIM) technologies for the life cycle of structures. The introduction of BIM technologies should radically improve and interlink all the directions of design, construction and operation of such unique objects as water transport hydraulic structures. We give several examples of the introduction of polytechnic education in the system of training specialists of various levels (bachelor, master and specialist) for hydraulic engineering construction of water transport facilities, which corresponds to the best world practices. The results in the formation of new professional skills and competencies are based on the application of system analysis and a unified methodology for the synthesis of various construction disciplines that are logically related and focused on the solution of assigned tasks.
