Abstract

The relevance of the research is substantiated by the fact that a persons’ successful learning and vocational training depends on physiological and psychological suitability to labour, i.e. on corresponding inclinations and abilities. In this regard, the article aims to prove the necessity of an appropriate selection of means and methods for professional and applied physical education of students – future engineers and technologists. The leading method of the research was sociological questioning among students of technical and technological colleges; it revealed respondents’ intellectual and emotional nervous tension,and preference for passive forms of rest. The article provides a structure of requirements for physical and mental education of the studied groups; tasks for professional and applied physical education of students – future experts; selection of means
and methods of professional and applied physical training of future engineers and technologists at higher education institutions. Materials of the article are of practical value for teaching staff of technical and technological colleges when selection and structuring of students’ professional and applied physical educations are considered.
