Abstract
This article presents recommendations for improving the system of training passenger and road sector specialists in higher education institutions. The study focuses on strengthening the role of universities in the labor market, enhancing cooperation between educational institutions and road construction enterprises, and improving the quality and practical orientation of engineering education. Special attention is given to the integration of theoretical training with real production conditions, as well as the involvement of industry professionals in the educational process. The analysis reveals several challenges in the current training system, including insufficient interaction between universities and enterprises, limited participation of industry specialists in curriculum development, and the dominance of traditional teaching methods. These factors negatively affect the competitiveness of graduates in the labor market. The article proposes a set of measures aimed at modernizing the educational process, including the development of joint curricula with enterprises, expansion of internship programs, introduction of innovative teaching technologies, and improvement of assessment systems. The implementation of these recommendations is expected to enhance the quality of training, strengthen university-industry collaboration, and ensure the preparation of highly qualified and competitive specialists for the road and transport sector.
