Abstract. The current paper has presented the features of the network interaction of the transport universities with the practical units of the transport complex based on the current legislation and the guidelines of Russian Ministry of Transport. Network education largely contributes to the development of transport education, providing a new high-quality level of training for specialists having modern transport competencies. The involvement of the transport complex departments in the development and implementation of network educational programs forms a unique educational environment, which is formed by combining the resources of the transport universities with the rich material and technical base of the transport system and its high-skilled production staff. Forming models of network learning, the transport universities increase educational resources, improve opportunities to significantly rise the quality of training. They provide students with the opportunity to simultaneously receive several diplomas and other documents confirming their qualifications and the ability to work efficiently in the structures of the transport complex.

The paper has presented a typical sample of a network interaction agreement between the universities and other organizations.

Abstract. The article discusses some problematic issues of higher education in the training of specialists who enforce safety regulations at transport infrastructure facilities and are responsible for its results. It has been indicated that there are very significant gaps in the work of the departments responsible for educational and scientific activities, including numerous documents and instructions which meaningless increase paperwork, but not scientific, creative work of university professors. Such a policy in the field of education and science hardly promotes training of specialists with deep solid knowledge necessary for their practical and scientific activities, including transport security. The students’ desire to acquire the profound knowledge necessary for future work and in life, excluding the pursuit of high grades, which are often not supported by relevant knowledge, is of great importance. It has been recommended to change the "quantitative" training of specialists on "qualitative" training, i.e. giving them ability to apply their knowledge not only in a specific transport industry, but also on individual sides of the industry, which will meet the safety requirements for all transport infrastructure.
