Practical Training

Practical training is a form of educational activity during studies under the "Global and Regional History" programme, with learners completing certain types of tasks, related to their future professional activities and aimed at building, consolidating, and developing practical skills and competencies specific to this programme. Practical training is governed by the Regulations on Practical Training of Students under Core Bachelor’s, Specialist and Master’s Programmes at HSE University.
