Abstract. The paper focuses on and propose the semi-formal method of con-
structing individual educational students trajectories for the professional train-
ing of future software engineers in Ukrainian universities. The method for the
student-centered learning conception support presented by the authors was de-
veloped using graph theory. The set of educational paths that the student is in-
vited to choose corresponds with the requirements of IT enterprises and pro-
vides the student with the opportunity to choose his or her educational path for
the level of education legally enshrined in Ukraine. The article presents the re-
sult of educational trajectories constructing for the process of the professional
training of future software engineers from a Junior Bachelor level to Doctor of
Philosophy. Ukrainian universities can use the proposed educational trajecto-
ries of the professional training of future software engineers for curricula and
syllabus preparation. The practical development of this work is an interactive
online assistant that will recommend to the student the choice of the educational
path from the already achieved level to the target level, which the student will
choose.
Keywords: competence, curricula, student-centered learning, sustainability,
software engineering, standards.
1 Introduction
In our volatile, intimately connected, and dangerously vulnerable world educational
system must be anticipative because the future is far from a linear extension of the
past [1]. The article [2] introduces an emerging sustainable learning and education
philosophy of learning as a fundamental principle of the sustainable curricula building
with appropriate methods of learning and teaching.
M. Knowles is the creator of the concept of self-directed learning, proved that all
individuals by nature could be self-directed, even if they need help to get started [3].
