FORMATION OF SPATIAL IMAGINATION IN THE FUTURE MECHANICAL DESIGNERS

The events of the last year have even more clearly highlighted problems and priorities in higher education, where during few decades number students who wanted to study engineering specialties has decreased, attractiveness education general decreased. Modern industrial enterprises, Ukrainian agricultural engineering, medical equipment, modern army urgently require a significant specialists, particular, mechanics could create, improve repair modern, as rule, rather complex equipment. Among basic knowledge future mechanical bachelors it is necessary single out presence spatial imagination thinking, which allow creating new systems by producing technical documentation form assembly working drawings. In process objects, designer solves two main tasks: first formation an imaginary object based on flat drawings, second production drawings three-dimensional object. This work devoted consideration analysis thinking obtaining student at university. disciplines provided curriculum, help develop are highlighted, relevant tasks their complication considered. It proposed stage forming among students, determine levels mastery which, together with assessment knowledge, skills abilities from other special subjects, will opinion about suitability bachelor creative profession systems.
