Abstract

This paper presents a case of project-based learning organizational model implementation in the Engineering School of Information Technologies, Telecommunications and Control Systems (IRIT-RTF) of Ural Federal University for undergraduate educational programs. The authors analyze three stages of organizational model transformation: initiating, piloting, and scaling. Within each stage, there are discussed technologies of collecting applications for students’ projects based on a role model of competences; organizational and technical support of students’ project work in accordance with the activity classifi cation of projects; the number of supervisors and their level of training required to accompany the process. The presented case can provide the reader with practical recommendations for implementing project-based learning at any university.
