Profile parallel training school-college. Information for applicants to second higher education

A second higher education provides an opportunity to become a specialist in another field, but unlike the first higher education, this can only be done on a commercial basis. The choice of the direction of training depends on the goals set by the applicant: either to obtain a specialty related to the first one, or complementary to it.

According to the observations of specialists in the field of employment, in recent years there has been a tendency for a sharp increase in the number of applicants with two higher educations. This is primarily explained by the fact that often a higher education is not enough to get a prestigious job in a large company, since a modern employer is looking for a “unique” multidisciplinary specialist and is even willing to pay the holder of two diplomas twice as much. That is why, having more than one diploma of higher professional education in your personal portfolio, when looking for a job it is easier to compete with other applicants and take the desired position.

The reasons why you have to get a second higher education diploma are not only to find a job. Quite often, a second degree is necessary to advance your career, deepen or expand knowledge in your field of profession, and sometimes for personal purposes. Such a need can arise at any time, so some people enter a second higher education immediately after receiving their first diploma, and others a few years later.
Based on the definition, a second higher education is available only if the applicant already has a diploma of higher professional education. Although quite often universities offer 3-5 year students to receive a second higher education in parallel with the first. This training option is possible, but the key feature is that students are enrolled on a contract basis as listeners and study part-time.

Do not confuse a second higher professional education with postgraduate programs, additional education, professional retraining, advanced training, or an MBA (Master of Business Administration) diploma.

In contrast to the above types, the training program at the faculty of the second higher education (by analogy with the first higher education) includes general professional disciplines, specialty and specialization disciplines, in accordance with the state educational standard, and is a “basic” education in the specialty. The levels of the second higher education fully correspond to the levels of the first. This means that in the chosen specialty you can receive a bachelor’s degree, a master’s degree, and in some cases a specialist’s diploma. Upon completion of training, graduates are issued a diploma of higher professional education. Therefore, when choosing a second university, it is important to remember that only that university can guarantee the issuance of a state diploma that has a license for educational activities and state accreditation for the relevant specialty.

“Second higher education” in absentia will be convenient for those who are ready to complete the curriculum independently at home and only take a break from work twice a year in order to pass the exam at the university. Correspondence education can also help students who are studying in 3-5 years of university (with incomplete higher education) to obtain a second higher education in parallel with the first.

A weekend group is an ideal option for those who cannot tear themselves away from work, but do not want to master the entire training course on their own. This form of education involves classes at the university on weekends, most often on Sundays. This allows you to combine work and study.

The main advantage of obtaining a second higher education remotely is that education becomes available to you regardless of your location. You plan the entire educational process yourself, set a training schedule to your taste and do not attend the university. Using a computer, Internet access and a webcam, you communicate with university teachers, negotiate with them about consultations, tests and exams. This option for obtaining a second higher education will appeal to those who are constantly on business trips or young mothers.

Recently, at faculties of second higher education, the popularity of an individual form of education (externship) has been growing significantly. This form of obtaining a second higher education involves independent study of disciplines according to the curriculum and passing the current and final certification. The external study form allows you to receive a second higher education in a shorter period of time (approximately 2 years), while studying according to a convenient schedule, drawn up together with representatives of the university individually for each student.

Second higher education in parallel with the first

Features of training

• Form of study:
  

  Training period:
  Bachelor's degree - from 2.5 to 3 years

  The parallel form of education allows students to study simultaneously in two faculties and, upon graduation, receive two state diplomas of higher education at once.

• Students who wish to obtain a second specialty in parallel with the first are enrolled in the department of second higher education on the basis of a contract as students (the status of a student is equal to the status of a student in the corresponding form of study).
• In parallel with the first, students of both first and subsequent years can receive a second higher education. But it is recommended to start studying in the second specialty no earlier than completing the third year in the first (this way you won’t have to take exams twice in disciplines common to both programs).
• Admission of students to the faculty of second higher education for parallel studies is carried out on the basis of certification tests, namely, written testing of a profile focus.
• In addition to the standard package of documents, to enroll in a parallel form of study, you must provide an academic certificate from your main place of study.

Who can get it?
In parallel with the first, all university students can receive a second higher education.

Some advice for those who are going to get a second higher education

Decide on your own motives.
Analyze why you need a second higher education. Try to formulate for yourself the goals and objectives of obtaining a second diploma. Is it worth taking entrance tests at a university, listening to lectures, preparing for sessions and writing coursework? Perhaps, to satisfy your desires, it will be enough to educate yourself using special literature or the Internet? Or maybe it will be enough for you to take advanced training courses or professional retraining?

Decide on a specialty
Think about which direction of second higher education is better to choose if you have finally decided to get a second diploma. How to use your first higher education in combination with your second future with the greatest benefit for yourself? Should you choose a profession that has nothing to do with your first one? After all, no one guarantees that after a certain time you won’t get bored with it and stop inspiring. Study how the specialty you have chosen is paid in your city or region. A second higher education is always paid for, so it would be nice to offset the costs of obtaining a second diploma with a decent salary in the future.

Decide on the form of training
If you have already chosen a direction for your second higher education, choose a convenient form of study. For those who are attracted specifically by the educational process, there is a full-time course of study. For those who work in a busy schedule, universities may offer to attend classes without compromising work: in the evenings or on weekends. Don’t forget that universities can now also develop an individual program specifically for you or offer distance learning. Make the learning process more accessible and convenient!

Decide on a university
Be careful when choosing an educational institution where you are going to receive a second higher education. Before entering a particular university, try to collect as much information as possible about it. Find out whether he has a license for educational activities that is current at the time of your admission and whether he has state accreditation for the specialty you have chosen (UGS). Remember that a university can guarantee you a state diploma only if it has the above documents. Therefore, do not buy into dubious offers and protect yourself from unpleasant problems that may arise with unscrupulous higher education institutions.

Second higher education in absentia

Bachelor's degree

• Form of study:
  Correspondence (registered in the diploma)

  Training period:
  Bachelor's degree – from 3 to 5 years
  master's degree – from 2 to 3 years

  The correspondence course of study in the undergraduate program at the Faculty of Second Higher Education assumes the predominance of independent studies.
• Students visit the university twice a year during a session, which lasts 20 calendar days and is intended not only to pass tests and exams, but also to gain new knowledge (during the session, students are given lectures, seminars and practical classes are held).
• After successfully completing the session, students receive a new task to independently prepare for the next session.
• A diploma of higher education is issued after passing a state exam and defending a final qualifying thesis.

Who can get it?
A second higher education can be obtained in absentia by someone who already has a diploma of higher professional education, has work experience in their specialty, but at the same time there is a need to master a new field of activity. In addition, students with incomplete higher education (3-5 years) are accepted into the correspondence department to simultaneously obtain a second diploma on a contract basis.

Master's degree

• Part-time master's programs at the Department of Second Higher Education are designed for those who are able to effectively distribute their study load and properly organize their time.
  Before studying the material independently, undergraduates are given introductory lectures at the university, given educational materials for the program, given consultations on their study, and given assignments for independent review.
  Bachelor's degree – from 3 to 5 years
  master's degree - from 2 to 3 years In order to study at a university remotely, a student must have a home computer, constant access to the Internet and a webcam.
• Everyone who enters the faculty of second higher education via distance learning receives from the university a personal Internet page with a curriculum, schedule, grade book and access to educational materials (video lectures, electronic manuals, electronic textbooks, etc.).
• Education is based on constant communication between the student and university teachers via the Internet, Skype, video conferencing, etc. During the semester, the student watches lectures, participates in seminars and webinars, consults with teachers, creates and defends projects, solves tests, and performs practical work.
• The student must set the schedule for completing the curriculum independently; if necessary, a personal curator appointed by the university can help in this matter.
• Knowledge control in the form of exams and tests is also carried out via the Internet in electronic testing or video conference mode.

Who can get it?
Anyone with completed higher education can receive a second higher education remotely. The distance learning form will be convenient for those who cannot study full-time for health reasons, “young mothers”, and people living in remote regions of Russia. In addition, distance learning at a university is of great interest to those who wish to obtain a second higher education or improve their qualifications, but are constantly on long business trips.

Master's degree

• Master's programs in distance learning at the department of second higher education are designed for those who are able to independently organize the educational process via the Internet.
• Master's students study the material through a personal Internet page provided by the university. This page allows you to watch video lectures, communicate with the teacher, participate in webinars, Internet conferences, scientific work, and use the university’s electronic library.
• Knowledge control, similar to the bachelor's degree program in distance learning, is carried out in the form of exams and tests and is carried out via the Internet in electronic testing or video conference mode.
• To receive a diploma of higher education via distance learning, a student must pass a state certification exam and defend a final qualifying thesis.

Who can get it?

Any certified specialist whose goal is to improve their skills or master a new field of activity, but who does not have the opportunity to study full-time or periodically attend an educational institution, can obtain a master’s degree remotely.

Many young people, having entered a university, become disillusioned with their choice over time, but still do not dare to leave their studies. Today, you don’t have to wait until five years have passed to get the opportunity to enroll again in another university, in another specialty. The way out is parallel education.

First, let’s be clear: we should distinguish between the concepts of “parallel education” and “second higher education.” We are talking about the second when a person has a diploma in hand and wants to get another specialty. Parallel education- an excellent additional study opportunity for a full-time senior student. In this case, the student receives the second higher education in absentia, and at the same time he is immediately enrolled in the second year.

So, what is needed to obtain a second higher parallel correspondence education?

• First, you need serious intentions. You must decide exactly: do you want to get, so to speak, two professions wholesale or not? After all, you have a lot of work ahead of you...
• Secondly, you should study well. How else? According to the current rules, only those students who do not have a single grade lower than seven points in their record book have the right to receive parallel education.
• Thirdly, it will take time and patience to collect the necessary certificates and permits.

Then, when the next campaign for admitting students to higher education institutions begins, you will need to provide the admissions committee, in addition to the usual set of documents, with an academic certificate from your university, as well as the appropriate permission from the dean or rector from your main place of study.

One more nuance: usually up to five places are allocated annually for parallel education in each specialty, and if there are more applicants, a competition will be formed. In this case, the admissions committee is guided by the average score of the academic transcript. This is another reason to study as well as possible from the very first year of the basic faculty...

Parallel education is, of course, stressful. If you are accepted, you will be required to pass the academic difference between the curricula of the two majors by the end of October. In my case, the academic difference consisted of two coursework and four exams. And this is just the beginning. If a regular student has two sessions a year, then you will have four. Chronic lack of time and physical fatigue are guaranteed.

However, parallel education has its advantages.

• Firstly, you are a student of two faculties. This means you have more friends and acquaintances.
• Secondly, undoubtedly, with conscientious study, you are doubly enriched intellectually, and the knowledge acquired in one department will probably help in another.
• Thirdly, learn to manage time wisely, and this quality will be very useful in life.
• Fourthly, you... will save this very time. For example, if after the third year you want to receive parallel education, then in total it will take you seven years to obtain two diplomas. But if you decide to get a second higher education after receiving your first diploma, you will spend, at best, eight years.
• Fifthly, with parallel education, the cost of training is much lower than when obtaining a second higher education.
• And finally, sixthly, imagine: you have two diplomas! And this fact of your biography will not only surprise others, but will also make them take you seriously.

Comments:

Students of 3-6 years of higher educational institutions of the Republic of Belarus who have received grades of no lower than “seven” (on a ten-point scale) in the disciplines studied during the entire period of study are accepted for parallel training in all specialties and forms of study.

Is it possible to enroll in parallel education from a technical school?

Tell me, did you study at the 2nd Faculty by correspondence, or did you study full-time?

Why not, if my transcript is not lower than 7...if I agree to pay for parallel education, then why not give me this chance??? I’m a 3rd year student at a medical university, there are several 6s in my transcript... I’m studying I don’t like it at all, but I don’t want to quit either: a lot of my efforts and my parents’ money have been invested!!! According to the law, I have to study for all 6 years, and only then I can enroll!!! What nonsense and injustice!!!
y'all forgive me... I'm just complaining...

thanks for the interesting article :)
I also wanted to clarify. if a discipline was studied for several semesters (let’s say 2), in the first one you received, for example, 5, and in the second - 9. In theory, the last grade goes into the diploma. If I want to get a parallel education, is this 5 considered as a grade below 7 or not?
thanks in advance for your answer)

Question: if I am currently studying part-time and have been admitted to another university for part-time study, what document can I leave at the first university instead of a certificate (I give the certificate to a second university)?

Anastasia

Very strange. I have a friend who, having grades below 7, entered a parallel course. How can this fact be explained?

clarification about the “regular set of documents”: is it necessary to write CT or not?

Dmitry, May 19, 2012
Exactly, all the same documents that you submit for admission to your first higher education.

I entered the second parallel higher education at BSU. Since I was not knowledgeable enough, I barely managed to submit the documents on time. In general, collecting and analyzing information, collecting and submitting documents took me 10 days. I can offer you my algorithm for achieving success)

1. Write an application addressed to the rector of your university with a text like “I ask you to allow me to study parallel education at (university), PLEASE GIVE ME AN ACADEMIC CERTIFICATES”, usually the average grade point is also indicated in the application. You get a visa from your dean, take it to the rector, usually he signs it without any problems. They gave me this certificate for about a week, but in reality it was about 3 days, it’s just that everyone was already on vacation.
2. Indicate your intention to receive an education from the dean of the future university. It is advisable to take the phone number, it really helped me. There they will give you, or tell you to download and print a document like “PRISONED
about the development of educational plans
(for parallel navuchannya)"
Dadatak 2 (Appendix 2)
3. Take a medical certificate stating that you can study in this specialty. PS. If you have a second degree, then all consultations with doctors will be paid for.
4. When your academic certificate is ready, write an application addressed to the rector, with the text “I, full name, am a student (further indicate everything: faculty, course, specialty, full-time/part-time, budget/paid form of study) request permission to study at (indicate University, faculty, specialty and form of study)". Take it with your academic certificate first to the dean of your faculty, then to the rector. Your application may not be signed if your academic performance is not high enough. When the rector signs for you, put the seal of the university (official seal) in the university office, it is usually placed. This is the permission of the head of your educational institution.
5. the simplest point - 6 photos 3x4 :)

You will have the following set of documents in your hands: academic certificate, permission from the head of the university, medical certificate specified in the second paragraph of Appendix 2, and 6 photographs. You take all this to your future university and go through the usual procedures for applicants. When you register at the dean's office, give everything and wait.

Well, I can say a few more words, maybe it will help someone.
- you can enroll immediately after you have passed the summer session of the second year (that is, you have actually entered the third year)
- be prepared that you will not be enrolled in the first year in any case, at least in the second, even if the curricula are completely inconsistent. When I applied, I was told that the first year is accepted only with CT certificates, and since you won’t have them, then at least the second (maybe the third and fourth, etc.). In my case, I was enrolled in the second year, the academic difference was 2 credits and 1 exam (I haven’t passed it yet: D)
- BE SURE to make several copies of your academic certificate, at least one for the dean’s office, and one for yourself. The original will be stored in the archive, and you can use a copy to re-credit any discipline in the further learning process.
- regarding grades of at least 7 in the record book. I had one 4, the others 9, 10. When I brought it to the rector for signature, I told him to show me the academic certificate/record, he signed without any problems (either he didn’t notice, or he didn’t pay any attention to it). So if you are generally a great student, you can take risks.
- you will have to order and buy a student ID and grade book (that is, not for free) separately; each university has a special department, so be prepared.
- psychological advice: if you still have a problem in your studies (BUT IN OVERALL EVERYTHING IS EXCELLENT, otherwise you will waste your time), and you are interested in someone and they ask you IF THERE IS BELOW 7, then answer that there is no, because they won’t talk to you any further :) you are required to show your academic certificate only to the rector of your university when signing the permit. The future university is not particularly worried about this, but they may ask (but not on the day when you have already brought the document to submit)
- it doesn’t matter, you will have paid/budgetary, full-time/correspondence education (the main thing is that it is parallel), the submission of documents ends with full-time state employees (that is, until July 25 somewhere)

Well, that seems to be all, good luck to you :)

What kind of discrimination!? I want to get an education, I’m ready to pay money for it! But if I don’t study for only sevens, I now have to wait 5 years until I finish one thing, and then start another. So it’s like studying until you’re 30 years old. What kind of conditions are these?

Please tell me! I’m studying at a medical university, I want to enroll in a parallel law degree (by the way, is this possible?), I have 2 grades below 7 in my record book, but I’m ready to retake them. Do I have a chance??

Dmitry, how do you like studying at BSU?

Dmitry thank you

Tell me, is it necessary that the education and subjects studied are, in principle, from the same field (for example, philosophy/sociology) or is it possible (for example, a lawyer/designer)?

Svetlana

Hello! Please tell me which legal acts need to be studied in order to be sure of your awareness of this issue?) I haven’t read the Code yet, is it worth it? Or will this be covered in more detail in the laws? Thank you in advance:)

How to apply for a parallel course at BGAI? there are also creative exams...

Is it possible to enroll in a parallel program at the Institute of Culture for pop singing if I am studying at BSTU to become a real estate manager?

And, by the way, if I enroll in a parallel course after the second year and study in a parallel course for 4 years, just like in the main course, what should I do with the distribution? It turns out that after the 1st semester I will be assigned somewhere, but I will have to complete another 2 years of parallel studies!

Tell me, please, I have the following story: I am currently studying part-time in my 2nd year. Now it's a session, I'm passing it and transferring to the third year. So, can I enroll in parallel education, or should I wait for a diploma and then only enroll in a second higher education?

Please tell me, can parallel higher education be obtained only on a paid basis, or is it included in a general competition, where there is a chance to pass for free based on points? And also, if my studies at the main faculty end a year earlier than at the parallel one, how will the distribution situation emerge? Thank you.

I graduated from a university and am working in a targeted area (targeted for 5 years), I want to enter a university as a full-time student. What to do with the target? Will his employer terminate his employment? Then, after receiving the 2nd education, I don’t need to work, but I will already be assigned to the 2nd education?

Chopik Alexey

What about practice? How do you do an internship after graduating from two universities at the same time (training on a budget basis)?

Popkova Victoria Sergeevna

Hello, if you enroll in commercial activities at a college through a paid correspondence course, is it possible to study at the same time at a university through correspondence? That is, I want to study in this specialty for a year, and next year I want to apply to the university for correspondence courses (for a fee).

Just as in a physics course they study diffusion, and in a chemistry course - solubility, just as in Russian language lessons they study the syntax of phrases and spelling at the junction of morphemes, just as in biology they study mixed race and twins, so in every school subject there is a topic related to intersection and interaction , meeting and communication. With the non-autonomous existence of something. The structure of higher education also has something similar: double degrees, joint programs and parallel studies. These three phenomena can also be understood: what if you want to use one of the programs! And it doesn’t matter that Chatsky did not welcome the mixing of French with Nizhny Novgorod.

Parallel learning: ready to go!

It is most convenient to start parallel studies after the 1st year, since in this case the admissions committee of your second faculty will re-credit your repeating academic disciplines. Subjects common to faculties are found later, but the principle - the further, the more specialized - remains. In addition, not everyone will survive the first and second sessions even at a simple institute: after them, dropout is quite common.

In general, there are several options. You can enroll in both specialties at once, as at Belgorod State University. Or for one, and then, in the first year, teachers will announce the possibility of additional qualifications - like at Siberian State Agrarian University. However, it is not necessary to announce anything like this at all, because the standard is still to graduate from only one faculty at a time. The rules are different everywhere: at Syktyvkar State University you can join parallel studies only from the third year - however, this can be done by a student of any university in Syktyvkar:

Would you like more information about the rules? Admission Rules are posted on the website of almost every higher educational institution; they may also apply to second higher education programs. If, say, already as a student, you decide to get a second higher education, then study them again, taking into account the specifics of the faculties. The practice of parallel education can also be regulated by special orders of the rector.

For a specialty that is new to you, you must submit documents (a diploma of incomplete higher education or an academic certificate confirming the mastery of the disciplines of the required number of courses) and entrance exams. The certificate must be taken either to the place where you study at the budget department, or to one of the programs of your choice; for the other, you must provide a certified photocopy of a state-issued education document and - if it is another university - a certificate from the university where you are a student.

The fact is that in the main university (in the West, interestingly, it is called a home university) or in the main faculty you will be called a student, but in the additional department you will be called a student. Of course, listeners include those who live in preparatory departments, medical residency students, and even radio listeners. But your rights and responsibilities as a listener will be the same as those of students (see Article 13 of the Law of the Russian Federation “On Education” and the internal regulations of a particular higher educational institution).

If you remain a student where you were already a student, the rector issues an order to change your student status.

However, the statuses of students differ less than the programs themselves, especially when these programs involve cooperation with other countries.

Abroad will help you

Joint programs are more like a live exchange, double degree programs are more like a targeted landing.

When the joint master's program of Tomsk Polytechnic University and the Technical University of Berlin "Engineering Science/High-Tech Physics in Mechanical Engineering" opened last year, not only professors, but also 15 students came from Germany. An internship was provided for the Germans at the Tomsk Scientific Center. Russian students can study in both Tomsk and Berlin as part of the program. It is therefore natural that both diplomas received by each student will be valued in Europe. Usually this applies only to a foreign diploma.

Please take this nuance into account if you are applying not to a joint program, but to a double degree program. The Russian one will be in demand precisely in Russia. This is true for a diploma from the MIRBIS Institute (specialties “World Economy”, “Finance and Credit”, “Organization Management” and “Marketing”), collaborating with the universities of London (Metropolitan), Middlesex and Indianapolis. Even with a strictly organized program: you will need to pass the IELTS exam in order to score at least 7 points; for this purpose, two-week internships in the UK are organized in the 1st and 2nd years, and after the third year, students go to a foreign university for a year to obtain a master’s degree; 5th year - studying at home.

What type of program is the bachelor's degree in circumpolar regional studies at the University of the Arctic? The university unites more than 100 northern universities from both hemispheres. Students of the Pomeranian State University (Arkhangelsk) and the Murmansk Humanitarian Institute study for some time not at the Arctic University in general, but specifically at the University College of Bodo, Norway, studying in English. Receive domestic Russian and Western diplomas. The main subject of study is the circumpolar region in all its diversity (political, social, cultural and economic aspects, geography and ecology). So guess what: in terms of the organization of the training course, this is a very abbreviated double diploma (not even a master’s degree); in terms of the widest range of topics and the potential for professional communication between Russians and Scandinavians, Canadians, and residents of Alaska, it is a long-term exchange program.

Double degree programs as point-to-point meetings of our education with Western ones are an alternative to the global educational equalization. After all, each specific case of contact between two different programs is not similar to the other. The existence of such a program at a university helps it take a step towards Western accreditation, and this increases its rating: in the case, of course, when the existence of such a program turns into a stable structural element of the university.

They harness for a long time and travel quickly

Most Russian universities do not have twin cities abroad, since organizing joint teaching is not easy. Foreign curricula and programs initially differ from ours, and in the process of preparing for a joint start, they are most often adapted and Russified. But for studies to begin, a number of problems still have to be solved for a long time. Will the federal authorities of both countries approve the idea? When should you take students to a foreign university? In which countries will diplomas be recognized? What books should I buy? For what purpose should Western teachers be invited: for teaching - or just so that exams can be accepted; where should they be accommodated and by the standards of which country should they be paid?

The compliance of the program brought or sold to us by a foreign university (for reading by third-party lecturers) with the educational standards of both countries will be checked later. When training has already begun, they will simply find out what the students’ performance is. If they study in Russia for the first year and then abroad, then the test will take place before they leave (so first-time students are at risk).

Universities that undertake so-called parallel training at, although different, but invariably Russian faculties, can solve similar problems more easily and quickly.

In English there are synonymous concepts double degree, dual degree, conjoint degree or simultaneous degree. They mean 2 diplomas of the same degree, obtained simultaneously from different universities or from the same one. So, oddly enough, a double bachelor's degree is also a classic case of a double degree, or two higher educations (along with joint master's programs, combining a specialty with a bachelor's degree and all other possible combinations). Thanks to this option, there will be more people with two diplomas in the future. After all, you can get a couple of bachelor's degrees quickly. And from some point of view, quickly is necessary - even if you are going to become a “specialist and once again a master.”

It would be nice for a professional economist to know the law at a fundamental level - and, since he is an economist, he will immediately calculate that the process should not be delayed. The same applies to combinations of jurisprudence + management, management + economics. As, indeed, others. Sometimes a university even focuses not on what fundamentally important things are taught there, but on the fact that combined programs are being reduced (Altai State University).

Academic councils of faculties can cut programs. This is reasonable: only people of science have a fair right to approve a strict educational diet. The departments also have their say. Basically, the reduction occurs due to the shortening of educational and production practices and, most likely, the abolition of electives, which results in an increase in the number of exams and tests per year. For high-spirited students, separate groups, flexible schedules, individual study plans, a block-modular education system, and evening correspondence courses are specially invented: In principle, students enrolled in an abbreviated program can transfer to another university at the drop of a hat. It's like an equestrian circus act. The fastest. Dzhigitovka.

It’s hard to believe, but this breakneck speed is accompanied by a decorous ceremony of drawing up a new grade book - the re-credited disciplines are neatly entered there. In addition, you can turn into a “double” bachelor in one fell swoop in two years, and into a specialist in about three, but faster is prohibited. And if one of your educations is foreign, then in some cases an international defense of the diploma is likely, and it takes place in two languages, that is, again longer than usual (for example, joint master's programs of RUDN University and the universities of Bordeaux 3 and Bordeaux 4 "Political Science" or "Philology" ).

When a student is not solely concerned with timekeeping, and when he is - let's use jargon for the sake of a pun - not parallel to his parallel education, or the path to a double degree, or a joint program, he will not avoid the question of what result such intensity will lead to.

What is the benefit of two formations

The important result is to prove something to ourselves. Let's take the humanists. Often they drift helplessly across the sea of ​​knowledge, as if on an ice floe, torn away from the exact sciences. But the above-mentioned northerners (among them were historians) received a unique circumpolar education - which means they were able to comprehend a whole block of diverse disciplines related to the North. For a humanities student, mastering a non-humanitarian subject is a big victory.

Future translators in the field of professional communication will confirm that studying a language in a specialized aspect allows you to learn something new in your specialty: from the theoretical developments and practice of another country. In this case, the initial discrepancy between the curriculum is only a plus.

And in general, it is no coincidence that people write about a double degree and other similar things in their resumes. Having two degrees, you will be able to see knowledge from an area you already know in a new dimension - from the point of view of your additional qualifications. And you will immediately surpass your fellow competitors. You will begin to combine ideas from related fields, communicate on professional topics with people from different circles, and increase the likelihood of concluding interesting deals. This is not about multiplying qualifications by two, but about squaring them.

In dispute, truth is born - and in the friendship of universities there is a source of development of an educational institution. How exactly they decide to form a joint program, what kind of idea they will come up with - this is both uncertainty and freedom.

And - prospects for the development of the region. Rare regional news reaches the centralized Russian news release - as a result, many of our compatriots confuse Penza and Perm and do not know that Uryupinsk is located in the Volgograd region. And a joint program is a chance to tell the world about your small homeland directly, to highlight it among the vast expanses of Russia and, perhaps, to attract investors to your region (these are the goals set by the Kuzbass Club of Exchange Program Alumni).

And cooperation based on university science is always wonderful.

Different countries - same specialty

What good is the combination of coinciding entities - Russian and international? Isn't it a tautology - not only in language, but in the professional sphere?

Let's get a look. Last year in Yekaterinburg the first graduation of designers with two diplomas took place - from the Ural State Academy of Architecture and Art and the Faculty of Design and Arts of the English University of Huddersfield. There is a special British design - and Russian design traditions are emerging. Two higher design educations received simultaneously - Russian and foreign - give a more comprehensive idea of ​​design in general.

Graduates of the Faculty of Economics of the University of Perm received a bachelor's degree in Business Economics from Manchester Metropolitan University. Students of the International Institute of Finance, Management and Business of Tyumen State University will also become doubly economists, having received a second diploma from the State University of New York. There are achievements of foreign economies - and Russian realities; knowledge of the former broadens our horizons and allows us to come up with solutions that are unexpected for Russians, and of the latter - to adapt these solutions to our lives.

Specialists with diplomas from two universities are in demand not only in the largest Russian, but also in foreign companies. However, still, more likely in Russian than in foreign ones.

Treated like repeaters

Do you want to become a world-class professional? Please note: foreign employers are confused by the fact that many in Russia have several higher education degrees. Especially received at the same time. Are these formations really so bad that one of them was not enough?

Yes, there is such a reason to enroll in two specialties out of fear: if it seems to you that the main specialty was taught poorly. Natural safety net of caution, but:

The legislation of the Russian Federation in the field of education allows for the possibility of simultaneous study in two higher educational institutions. Even if it seems that life itself forces you to get 2 educations at the same time, it allows you to. And nothing more. There is no such national program with appeals. Since excessive combination of formations would be contrary to sanitary standards.

Embrace the immensity

Attention: heavy loads! To master two specialties at once, sometimes you need to be a child prodigy. Recent news about 12-year-old Mexican Andrew Almazan, who began studying psychology and surgery at the same time at the University of America (Puebla, Mexico), confirms this. He's a prodigy. But psychology plus surgery is difficult.

But if you are of normal student age and become a translator in the field of professional communication (PPC), is it easier for you?

For example, at Orenburg State University this area could be mathematical methods in economics - say something mathematical and economic in English! In Krasnoyarsk Siberian State Agrarian University PR is combined with linguistics. There is a common perception of PR as chatter, and yet: what new PR terms have appeared in English? When learning your main profession, you run the risk of “losing your language,” and you need to practice all the time: Therefore, in Orenburg, a fund of books has been created on career-oriented translation, and the latest scientific developments are taught using fresh student translations; communication skills have to be improved with the help of information technology. And in Krasnoyarsk, language immersions are simultaneous with unloading, since they take place at recreation centers.

Paid education, by the way, must be expensive.

How much does all this cost?

Shampoo and conditioner in one bottle, two for the price of one and a gift with purchase? But here it’s the other way around: the first higher education is free, the second is paid.

If a person receives his first education for a fee, and after a while decides to receive the second on a budgetary basis, then he will be faced with the fact that only the very first higher education will be guaranteed free - when you pass the competition, of course. The management of a state university has the right to demand that such a person be transferred to a paid department.

The cost of training for the Russian-Swiss program of the Academy of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Hotelconsult Colleges Cesar Ritz "Hotel and Tourism Management" is 9000 USD. in year. And yet, Swiss teachers are strict: they can eliminate at least half the group.

In Cyprus, if you pay a visit to a foreign (at the local International University) division of Saratov State University. Chernyshevsky, the cost of training will be 4000 rubles per year. Specialties - "Applied Informatics", "Service and Tourism", "International Relations" and "International Journalism", study for 5 years - first in Russian, at the same time studying English in depth, then in English; practice in Cyprus, as a result - a diploma from Saratov University and, of course, Cyprus.

Good news: discounts! At Orenburg University, when receiving a language qualification as part of parallel education, you pay no more than 8 thousand rubles a year, which is on average 3 times lower than local prices for paid places on the student bench. Syktyvkar University has established preferential tuition fees for students receiving two higher education degrees at the same time.

In general, it is cheaper to get a second degree in evening or correspondence courses, where the time consumption is less. Or you can do it even simpler, and this program has already been mentioned here: enroll in RUDN, study for free at the University of Bordeaux: True, you will have to spend money on travel and housing.

A very simple option is to get a scholarship and a house without giving anything away. However, to do this you need to be a Mexican prodigy named Andrew Almazan, a young psychological surgeon, and study at the University of America, Puebla.

Geography of dual education

It is not a fact that, wishing to conclude a cooperation agreement, the university will pay attention to higher education institutions in the G8 countries. Perhaps his attention will begin its path directly from the states of the former USSR, as happened with Kemerovo State University and the Russian-Armenian (Slavic) State University (Yerevan). These universities are going to work together to develop and implement modern methods of training and retraining specialists in a wide range of disciplines and plan to pay attention to each other’s scientific activities. In Kemerovo they are looking towards universities and other CIS countries, and are also negotiating with the University of Toronto, Canada.

The closer the location of the university to the state border, the greater the chances for students on both sides to receive a double diploma. Thus, at the Pomeranian State University it is planned to create a Cross-Border Northern University - a Russian-Finnish project consisting of several master's programs. And universities in the Far East actively cooperate with China. Only a fifth of Chinese school graduates can afford to study at universities in their native country: there are many Chinese. That's why they come to study with us.

Students from North Korea also go to Russia - to Siberia - but for a different reason: they consider the material base of their country's technical universities to be outdated. Apparently, they hide this reason from the state, which pays for their studies and welcomes already trained specialists with leading positions prepared for them at local enterprises. In the same Siberia (Omsk) you can meet students from France, Germany, Holland, Finland, Japan and Australia: they come to study.

Do they go to someone else’s monastery with their own rules? The old proverb answered this question in the negative; there is no new proverb - however, Russia is actively promoting the study of the Russian language in Belgium (although the Belgians already need to know French, Dutch, English and some others German in order to communicate with their closer neighbors). In Brussels, a cooperation program was signed between various local Russian representative offices and Belgian universities that study Russian language and literature (Ghent University, Catholic University of Leuven, Lessius High School in Antwerp and the International School of Translators in Mons). In the future - the development of contacts between Russian and Belgian universities, competent promotion of our culture in this country. And Kaliningrad Russian State University named after. I. Kant pursues the same goals, but in collaboration with the University of Warmia and Mazury (Olsztyn, Poland). Their joint program trains bachelors, masters and specialists in Russian philology (2 diplomas from the Russian and Polish sides).

The world is becoming smaller and the forms of cooperation between universities are becoming more diverse. What if you want to study only a specific subject at another university? Or, let’s say, during a spontaneous trip to another city, study for a short time at a university in that city?

Both of these options are not feasible. Either you transfer to another university, or you receive a second higher education there, or you use additional educational services of this university (say, take courses). Nothing else is provided. However, at a conference of technical universities held at the end of last year, dedicated to the transition to a two-level education system, the rector of the St. Petersburg State Electrotechnical University proposed introducing a mutual exchange of students and teachers of “related” universities in specialized areas. What his proposal will lead to is unknown.

Good afternoon, Yulia.

If you graduate from a “paid university” faster than from a “free” university, then studying in your final years at a free university will mean that you already have a higher education.

For example, you received a bachelor's degree at a paid university, and at a free university you are still in your 3rd year. It turns out that you already have a higher education, and you have no right to study at a free university.

When this becomes clear, from the moment you receive a diploma from a paid university, the free university may charge you the cost of education for all years, the scholarship paid, as well as interest for the use of other people's funds at the key rate of the Central Bank of the Russian Federation.

Thus, if you want to enroll in a free university, you need to drop out of a paid one.

Rationale

Federal Law of December 29, 2012 N 273-FZ “On Education in the Russian Federation”

3.

Appeal ruling of the Supreme Court of the Republic of Karelia dated April 15, 2016 in case No. 33-1510/2016

As follows from the case materials and established by the court of first instance by order of<...>N Sh. was enrolled as a student at the Faculty of Medicine of PetrSU, specializing in general medicine, through a general competition with training financed from the federal budget. By order of<...>N Sh. was expelled for violating the duties stipulated by the PetrSU Charter, the Internal Regulations and the Rules for Living in a Dorm, and other local acts of the university, since it was discovered that Sh. had previously studied at PetrSU, had a higher professional education of this level and<...>Graduated with a diploma and qualification as a biologist.
Thus, Sh. used the educational services provided to him by PetrSU without legal grounds. The presence of bad faith on his part is confirmed by the decision of the Petrozavodsk City Court dated<...>, since the court found that Sh. upon admission to the Faculty of Medicine of PetrSU<...>reported untrue information about receiving higher professional education for the first time.

By order of the rector from<...>N determined the cost of education for applicants to PetrSU (first year of study). According to Appendix N to the order dated<...> N tuition fee for applicants to PetrSU in<...>year for the Faculty of Medicine in the specialty “General Medicine” is set at<...>rub.
During the period of Sh.’s studies, on the basis of the provisions of Part 3 of Art. 36 of Federal Law N 273-FZ “On Education in the Russian Federation”, as a full-time student at the expense of budgetary allocations from the federal budget, was State academic scholarship and social scholarship awarded. In total for the period from<...>By<...>Sh. was paid<...>rub., which is confirmed by a certificate from<...>N.
Thus, the court of first instance came to the correct conclusion that during the period of study in the 1st year of the Faculty of Medicine of PetrSU in the specialty “General Medicine” in the 2012-2013 academic year, Sh., without the grounds established by law, received and saved at the expense of PetrSU funds in the total amount of 120 RUB 367.50 (RUB 73,000 + RUB 47,367.50), since their

School graduates, due to youthful maximalism, make grandiose plans for the future. Most applicants set ambitious goals for themselves. They are confident that they will be able to earn a lot of money and become full members of society. Some plan to open their own business and run a large company. All this cannot be achieved without quality education.

Yes, many are sure that to achieve success in life it is not necessary to graduate from college. One could agree with this if it were not for the deplorable statistics: only 4% of young people get a good job without a diploma. The remaining 96% are late, but still realize the importance of higher education, and apply to a university, or occupy not the most prestigious positions. In the second case, you need to immediately come to terms with the fact that you will have to work for a pittance salary all your life. Such people rarely set goals for themselves and achieve nothing in life. Yes, history knows several cases when a person who barely completed 2-3 grades of school became very successful. But, as you know, exceptions only confirm the rule.

Therefore, in order for your future life to be filled with great opportunities and prosperity, you need to lay a reliable foundation in the form of higher education for future success. One of the options for obtaining higher education is parallel education for correspondence students, which we will talk about today.

Parallel learning - what is it?

Let us immediately note that obtaining a second higher education and parallel training are not the same thing. A student who is receiving a second higher education already has a diploma and has re-applied for a different specialty. In turn, parallel training implies simultaneous study at two universities. It is worth noting that this opportunity is available only to correspondence students.

It is difficult to imagine a situation where a full-time student submits documents for another specialty and again chooses a full-time student. Firstly, studying full-time at two universities at the same time is physically impossible. Secondly, it is prohibited by law.

An option is possible when a student is studying full-time and submits documents for a part-time course in another specialty. The most popular is distance learning. In the next paragraph we will talk about the advantages and disadvantages of parallel learning.

If an applicant chooses parallel studies, it is advisable for him to apply for related disciplines. For example, if “Management” is chosen as the main direction, then “Human Resources Management” can become an additional one. Employers give preference to those specialists who have two or more higher education diplomas. Firstly, this is very rare. Secondly, this speaks of the candidate’s high professionalism and self-discipline.

Parallel training allows you to obtain two full-fledged higher education diplomas at once in a relatively short period of time. In addition, parallel training has a number of other advantages:

1. The student gets the opportunity to gain practical skills and professional development. Constant self-improvement is mandatory for a person who sets maximum goals for himself. Mastering two specialties at once allows you to quickly fill your knowledge bank and achieve high moral and material standards.
2. Parallel learning is very convenient. In some educational institutions, a student who is studying for two related specialties has the opportunity to take the general exam only once. But this privilege is not available to all students.
3. By studying simultaneously at two universities, the student gets the opportunity to master the basic principles of planning his time. The acquired skills will definitely be needed in the future. Proper time management can become one of the foundations for future career growth.
4. Students who earn two degrees at once have a much better chance of landing a high-paying position. Employers often pay attention to the versatility of a candidate and give preference to those who can combine several positions at once.
5. Parallel training does not always mean six years of continuous study. If a student already has a higher education diploma, then he can receive the next one after three years of study.

Let's sum it up

We have examined the main advantages of parallel training, and now we can conclude that this option opens up wide opportunities for applicants. A student who has two degrees at once has a better chance of getting a well-paid job. In addition, such employees are highly valued by management and can count on rapid career growth.
