The authors believe applying of the competency building approach in higher education assumes the development of programs. Programme approach implies that students are free to choose their field of activity and communication, make groups where they have all the necessary conditions for training and developing competence. Training students’ scientific and research competence is fundamental for intellectual development and educational quality. The Program “Training of students’ research ñompetence” is an efficient mechanism for involvement of talented students in the research. It assumes scientific and methodological support for students and teachers, which contains strategic guidance, recommendations, guidance and instruments of the research competencies training. The authors believe students involvement in research to be the fundamental mechanism of programme implementation. The expected results include increase in number and quality of research projects and grants developed by the program participants, as well as improving the quality of public presentations of students’ research results (including the current and final assessment of students). Each program assumes assessment of its efficiency, which has the following peculiarity, exactly the lack of developed standards or analytically calculated standards. The programme approach corresponds to the students’ interests and takes into account the changes in the economic, social, political and moral aspects of life.
