Mari State University continues to train specialists in the field of Philology (Philology in the System of Modern Humanitarian Knowledge), with five individuals set to complete their education in the 2023–2024 academic year. Among them are graduates from the profile 45.03.01 Philology (specialization) and the profile 44.03.05 Pedagogical Education (bachelor’s degree), already possessing a foundational background in philology. The program they follow includes complex theoretical courses in linguistics and literary studies, aimed at delineating the boundaries and exploring the interactions between Philology and related disciplines. The students not only progressively familiarize themselves with the core issues of the taught disciplines but also master various approaches to problem-solving over the course of two years. Throughout this period, they acquire skills to independently analyze language, folklore, and literature systems; evaluate, summarize, format, and promote the results of their own research activities; edit scientific publications; and collaboratively develop projects in the field of philology and more. Aligned with the declared direction of preparation, the focus for these master's degree candidates revolves around contemporary philology. They delve into forms of coexistence of different directions and styles, as well as the formation of new areas within this space, such as Orthodox belles-lettres. A significant emphasis is placed on the diverse formats of literary texts, including network literature. They identify patterns in the functioning of literary associations and communities, as well as forms of interpreting classical heritage, including folklore, while assessing their prospects. Issues are presented and resolved, typically through the material of works by innovative writers, for example, the novels of Alexey Ivanov and others. Additionally, students have the opportunity to apply their knowledge during educational and production practices at the Mari State University’s Computer Linguistics Laboratory. This involves familiarization with the main directions of research activities of leading centers of the Russian Federation and Mari State University, gaining insights from its leading specialists, and jointly developing projects with academic supervisors related to the issues addressed in their final qualification works. The journal “Vestnik of the Mari State University” once again acquaints readers with the concepts of the final qualification works of philologists.
