Abstract

The article is concerned with the analysis of the factors influencing the choice of the field of Bachelor’s or Specialist’s education, based on the survey of the undergraduates of one of the Moscow universities. Based on the survey results, the main reasons that influenced the choice of the field of education for a Master’s degree are identified; the correspondence of the field of Master’s studies to the sphere of professional activity and professional interests of students is investigated. On the basis of the research, the satisfaction of the students with the level of knowledge received, the possibility of its application in practical professional activity, and the orientation of the undergraduates towards further scientific activity are estimated. The results of the scientific research confirm almost completely the original hypothesis and make it possible to draw conclusions about the trends that are currently developing in the field of education. Despite the fact that the survey is conducted among the undergraduates of one university, the results represent the general problems of higher education.
