Interdisciplinary approach to learning a foreign language at a technical university

the article deals with the problem of increasing the effectiveness of teaching a foreign language to students of technical universities in the context of globalization and the rapid development of technology. The traditional approach to language education is analyzed, and its disadvantages associated with insufficient motivation of students and isolation from professional training are revealed. The necessity of applying an interdisciplinary approach (IDA), involving the integration of language training with other technical disciplines, is substantiated. The research methodology is based on an analysis of the experience of implementing interdisciplinary programs and generalizing the practices of using IDA-oriented learning technologies. The results and discussion demonstrate the advantages of an interdisciplinary approach, such as increasing motivation, developing professional competence, improving language skills, building holistic knowledge, and developing collaborative skills. The author emphasizes that the purpose of professionally oriented language learning is not only the mastery of language material, but also the formation of foreign-language professional communicative competence and the development of professional thinking. The necessity of interdepartmental cooperation and further development of methodological materials for the successful implementation of IDA in technical universities is substantiated.
