Education at this stage is created according to individual programs, where the student and the scientific adviser participate jointly. An analysis of the training of masters in the field of engineering and technology in foreign countries indicates that the master's level in differentiation is preliminarily acquired on the basis of the obtained bachelor's level: master-practitioner and master-scientist. When preparing masters, national traditions of countries are taken into account and special attention is paid to practice. International significance of the article: the article summarizes the latest changes in the professional training of masters in the field of engineering and technology, which can be used in reforming the educational systems of developing countries.
