State educational standard

The main goal of training in this area is to prepare competent workers with fundamental mathematical, philosophical, sociological training, as well as special training in the profile “Quality Management in Information Systems.” A feature of specialized training at the TUSUR Institute of Innovation is the maximum use of world experience with a focus on international standards for quality management (ISO 9000), environmental quality management (ISO 14000).
Our graduate is capable of developing technical and economic solutions aimed at achieving sustainable development of production in an innovative market economy, forming an organization's quality management system, conducting audits and certification of management systems.

Education in this profile is designed to:

provide knowledge of the philosophical foundations of quality and the application of appropriate approaches in information systems and other areas of activity;
teach how to organize work to ensure the quality of products (services) through the development and implementation of quality management systems;
develop competencies in achieving sustainable success of the organization;
familiarize yourself with the main regulatory documents on quality assurance issues, as well as with the modern practice of partnership relations between the organization and its consumers (customers) and suppliers.

Graduates receive the qualification “Bachelor” and become:

managers and specialists of quality services at enterprises;
leading employees of consulting organizations, centers of standardization, certification and metrology;
experts from certification bodies in the field of product quality and international management systems;
quality auditors.

The curriculum in the field of preparation includes disciplines that will allow students to study modern materials and technologies, modern methods and means of quality assurance, development of documents on standardization, metrology, and certification. Disciplines such as “Quality Management of Software Systems”, “Software Engineering”, which will allow students to better master the training profile, “Financial and Management Accounting”, “Quality Audit”, “Management and Marketing”, “Office Management” will help students become specialists in areas of economics and management practice.

The curriculum also includes the discipline “Nanomaterials and Nanotechnologies”, reflecting a promising area of science and production, which is currently being intensively developed, and its further development is planned on the basis of the Tomsk technology-innovation zone. Thanks to the computer equipment of the department, students master modern graphic packages designed for engineering design (AutoDesk, AutoCAD, AutoDesk Inventor), work with databases, and actively use Internet technologies. An intensive English language course allows students to master it at a level that ensures work with professional foreign language literature, foreign standards and electronic sources, as well as communication with foreign colleagues and foreign external auditors.

We focus our students on mastering modern quality methodology. It is quality that is the basis for the sustainable development of the “smart” economy in the “triple helix” system - the effective interaction of education, business and public administration. As an official partner of the world leader in quality education TUV-Akademie (Germany), the Institute of Innovation in its educational activities uses the latest teaching methods that have received worldwide recognition.

03.27.02 Quality management

Quality management – what is it and why?

“Quality is, first of all, a determination identical with being, so that something ceases to be what it is when it loses quality.”

For a long time it was believed that quality management comes down to preventing defects in finished products. Today, quality management is one of the most important areas of management, which is designed to organize the work of an enterprise in such a way that the consumer always receives a product or service of high quality. In international practice, special procedures, methods and tools have been developed, which together make up the quality management system. There are over 1 million companies in the world that have implemented modern quality management systems. There are currently about 30 thousand such organizations in Russia, but their number is constantly growing.

The problem of quality never loses its relevance; it is essentially constant. Quality today is no longer perceived as an abstract category, but as a strategic task, the successful solution of which largely determines the stability of the Russian economy, its place in global production and distribution. That is why at the Kuban State University, at the Department of World Economy and Management, the direction of bachelor’s training 03/27/02 “Quality Management” was opened, the profile “Quality Management in Socio-Economic Systems”.

The future activity of a graduate of this profile will be the continuous improvement of business processes in an organization (enterprise) in order to increase its prestige and competitiveness, which requires special knowledge, skills and abilities, both engineering and technical, and to a large extent economic, organizational, social -psychological. The special mentality of future specialists is expressed in the awareness of the mission of quality management as a factor that directly affects the quality of life of the population.
