Abstract

The authors prove the necessity of forming students' individual personality traits, skills and abilities to improve the efficiency of interaction in the social sphere. The article proposes an interpretation of the essence and the structure of social interaction competence of technical university students. In the Industrial University of Tyumen in 2016, a research was held for defining the first year students' adaptation behaviors ("active response" behavior and "inactive response" behavior) and a manifestation level of students' social interaction competence. The 3 groups of the personal determinants (intellectual skills, volitional skills, and social attitudes) considered to facilitate a high level of the social interaction competence formation were revealed and characterized. Based on the theoretical and practical background, the key directions are given for developing the students' social interaction competence by means of educational activities in a technical university. It is emphasized that within a technical university, such systematic and purposeful activities ensure to educate a person ready for an effective social interaction.
