The important part of socio-humanitarian work at the Institute is student’s involvment to the activity of self-government.

This year the Institute of Pedagogy and Psychology has enrolled 9 groups in all specialities which have being studied in stationary mode since September 1.

The directors have held meetings with the first-year students and parents, chosen group monitors and appointed academic supervisors. Also there are outreach activities in the social networking websites “VKontakte” and “Odnoklassniki” on subjects “Support your Institute”, “Unite”, “Distance learning features”, “What is a tutor and what responsibilities does he have?”, “Admission Campaign”, “Student life before ATO” and so on.

2. Creation of “Bank of Advices” for the students to provide information about the schedule of the educational process (taking tests, exams, internships, etc.);
