The Resource Efficiency Assessment Technique for the Foundry Production

This paper is devoted to the problem of the role of linguistic competence of research and educational personnel of Russian universities. It is stated that inadequate level of the emphasized competence is one of the reasons, hindering the development of Russian higher education, which affects the positions of Russian universities in the world university rankings. The authors of the article address the experience of one of the leading Russian engineering universities – National research Tomsk polytechnic university (NRTPU) – on solution of this problem. The article provides main results of the project on enhancing the level of linguistic competence of the research and educational personnel of NRTPU and the analysis of the positive and negative sides of its realization

et al. 2015

Foundation of contemporary economic growth lies in the process of traditional and new production factors intellectualization. The most common support form of such activity is creation of Centers of Excellence. The paper outlines the experience of organizing a Center of Excellence at Tomsk Polytechnic University, goals to achieve in order to create a Center and its work principles. The key idea for Centers of Excellence is a deep connection between scientific and educational processes. This idea is put into practice by integrating the information on state-of-the-art achievements in different fields of science in curriculum

“…For this purpose, the indicator values, obtained by means of the method of expert evaluation, were converted to the corresponding coefficients. Conversion of the indicators into coefficients was implemented in such a way that more beneficial indicators values, from the point of view of a consumer, had greater coefficient values (Vidayev, 2014). Then, by means of coefficients multiplication, the integral "significance coefficient", taking into account the contribution of all selected indicators at once, was obtained.…”

The problem of linguistic competences of higher school personnel as one of the main problems, not allowing Russian higher education school to count on leading positions in the world university rankings, is discussed in this paper. Within the framework of the article the authors formulate a possible approach to the establishment of the strategy of linguistic competences development in a higher school. The authors are implementing this work on the basis of National research Tomsk polytechnic university (NRTPU). The methodology of the analysis of possibilities of linguistic competences development, search of the mechanism of measures implementation by their development, and identification of “gaps” or difficulties in implementation of these measures are presented in this article. For solution of the assigned objectives the parameterization of measure characteristics and their subsequent statistical processing are applied
