Graphic disciplines in structure continuous design training of students

The article discusses the relationship of disciplines in the continuing professional training of a young specialist. The issues of integrated design, technology and research focus of training are analyzed. Aspects of the use of graphic, computational disciplines when performing independent work in the form of a course project (term paper, thesis) are analyzed. The basis of the training of the development engineer is to study the designs of machines, elements of devices that function as part of integrated systems operating in various operating conditions. Thus, the design engineer must have the training that allows him to participate creatively in the development and creation of structures with the wide use of advanced calculation and design techniques. To orient the future specialist from the very beginning of training towards solving the main engineering problem - creating new types of devices and machines in the chosen specialty. The aim of this work is an attempt to describe in more detail some significant disciplines that precede course design.
