    Глава 1
    Abstract:
    The scientific study conducted a comprehensive analysis of the existing entrance test programs for the direction 03/54.01 Design in the fields of «Graphic Design» and «Costume Design» at leading universities in Russia. Two main models of applicant selection have been identified: traditional, focused on academic skills, and modern, focusing on project training. It is established that the current competitive selection system requires modernization due to general trends in higher education and society as a whole. Research has shown the need to shift the focus from assessing the professional skills developed to identifying the adaptive potential and conceptual thinking of applicants. A model for the modernization of the entrance test program is proposed, integrating traditional methods of assessing artistic literacy with modern diagnostic tools for project competencies. The developed concept aims to attract a contingent of students who meet the requirements of modern design education, and provides an objective approach to evaluating work, taking into account the diverse training of applicants and their professional self-determination.

    Abstract:
    The chapter justifies the relevance of establishing an art museum at the Institute of Creative Industries (ICI) at Don State Technical University (DSTU) in Rostov‑on‑Don. Drawing on the long‑term experience of university museums in Russia and abroad, as well as on modern educational approaches, the author proposes considering the museum not only as a repository of cultural values, but also as a multifunctional educational and exhibition space integrated into the educational process. Special attention is paid to the potential role of the museum in shaping the professional competencies of future designers. At the stage of designing and creating the museum space, it is planned to actively involve students from various faculties, which will make it possible to implement interdisciplinary projects and ensure practice‑oriented learning. The university museum is considered a representative model reflecting the scientific achievements of teachers and the creative successes of students, which makes it an important element of the university’s corporate identity. The social mission of the planned museum is substantiated: its openness to a wide audience, active promotion and popularization among city residents and tourists. Integrating the museum into the city’s cultural space will enable it to fulfil an image‑building function, helping to enhance the university’s visibility and shape an attractive cultural image of the city. Thus, the art museum of the IKI DGTU can become a focal point for the professional community, student youth, and residents of Rostov‑on‑Don, combining educational, enlightenment, and socio‑cultural objectives within a single project.

  • Variational and parametric typography and generative identity: a look through the lens of the educational process

    Book Chapter
    Design in higher education: strategies, technologies and training methods
    Authors:

    Work direction:
    Глава 9
    Abstract:
    The chapter analyzes the process of developing variable and parametric typography from the perspective of a cultural‑ecological approach. Modern font classification systems are examined, and the need to revise them in light of the emergence of complex display and parametric forms is substantiated. A methodology for designing dynamic identity is proposed, which includes the stages of pre‑project research, form generation, automation, and adaptation of fonts for various media. The practice of applying this methodology in teaching design students is described, and the results of project activities are presented. The conclusion is drawn regarding the importance of integrating variable and parametric typography into the educational process to develop competencies in the field of adaptive design and algorithmic thinking.

    Роль человеческого капитала в сфере управления, экономики и предпринимательства
    Abstract:
    One of the key areas of the creative economy, which the government has been pinning serious hopes on in recent years, is the field of design. Design should not only contribute to the development of the creative potential of the population. With its help, with effective management, significant development of the country's economy as a whole is planned, including an increase in the added value of goods and services, GDP growth, and the development of the labor market. However, the field of design needs not only financial and organizational support from the state and investors. Its development is impossible without the involvement of professionally trained specialists in this process. The article provides a rationale for the importance of design education for the training of professionals in the creative sector of the economy.
