THEORETICAL
FOUNDATIONS OF ENGINEERING TRAINING IN MILITARY HIGHER EDUCATION
Abstract. The article discusses the theoretical foundations of
engineering training in military higher education. The article examines the
features of engineering training in the modern military education system, makes
scientific generalizations on the Azerbaijani, NATO and Turkish models. The
rapid development of technology and its application in modern war conditions
are increasingly increasing the responsibilities of engineering officers. The
purpose of the article is to analyze the current state of engineering training
in the military education system of the Republic of Azerbaijan, compare it with
the NATO and Turkish models, and determine the directions of development. The
study presents pedagogical methodologies, technological integration, management
and leadership skills as the main components of engineering training. The
article analyzes both theoretical and practical aspects and examines the role
of engineering training in the training process and its impact on the strategy
of military education. The main focus is on the formation of the Azerbaijani
model, its synthesis with international experience and the integration of
technological innovations into the training process. The article may be useful
for the military scientific community, professorial staff of military
educational institutions, and military trainees. Research results show that an
engineering training program should not be limited to technical knowledge
alone, but should also be enriched with strategic thinking, management,
leadership, and agile decision-making skills.
