AN INTERDISCIPLINARY APPROACH TO EDUCATION AS A BASIS FOR URBAN DEVELOPMENT MANAGEMENT

Currently, fundamental changes are taking place in human resourcing of the economy, which is reflected both in the emergence of new specialties that are extremely in demand on the modern labour market and in the gradual reduction in the need for some professions and their predictable disappearance. In our opinion, the rapid development of digital technologies and their widespread application form new requirements for professional culture of a modern specialist, which is reflected in the gradual transformation of educational programs which are aimed at more complete compliance with the requirements of the digital economy. This article substantiates the relevance of improving the personnel training system in order to provide the labour market with specialists in creating a comfortable living environment, identifies the problem of lack of working skills in the digital economy and also considers such an aspect of the labour market as the emergence of new specialties at the junction of different areas of knowledge. As a result, the authors proposed directions for the further development of the personnel training system, among which there is an integration of the interdisciplinary approach in the framework of educational programs in various specialties, as well as the development of an optimal combination of the number of lecture and practical classes in order to most fully ensure that the content of the educational program meets modern requirements for specialists in conditions of a digital transformation of all spheres of life of the population.
