RETROSPECTIVE ANALYSIS OF FUTURE MASTERS’ TRAINING FOR PROFESSIONAL COMMUNICATION IN THE SCIENTIFIC COMMUNITY

Abstract

The problem of getting future masters ready for professional communication in the scientific
community is considered on the basis of a retrospective analysis. This problem is influenced by
the processes of internationalization in education and integration of scientific, educational and
production areas. The historical retrospective is made on the basis of the following criteria:
1) the formation of masters' education, 2) the development of scientific communication,
3) the development of foreign language education, 4) the formation of language for professional
purposes. Representing the historiography of the problem the author reveals three main periods:
from 45th to 60s of the 20th century; from 70th to 90s of the 20th century; from the beginning of
the 2000s to the present. The period before 1945 is considered a preparatory one. It created social,
scientific and practical conditions for training future masters for professional communication
in the scientific community.
