Введение. Правильный и рациональный выбор своей будущей профессии является определяющим фактором в жизни любого человека. Большинство абитуриентов на момент поступления в какой-либо вуз зачастую не имеет представления о роде деятельности, не может проанализировать все позитивные и негативные стороны работы, что препятствует выбору подходящей им специальности ввиду отсутствия интересов и склонностей к данному виду занятий. Решением проблемы здесь может выступить профориентационная работа. Цель – обосновать целесообразность проведения вузами профориентационной работы для оказания помощи абитуриентам в выборе будущей профессиональной деятельности на примере Санкт-Петербургского университета государственной противопожарной службы МЧС России. Материал и методы. Для оценки значимости профориентации в Санкт-Петербургском университете ГПС МЧС России был проведен ряд экспериментов. Объектом исследования был выбран контингент из бакалавров, магистров и профессорско-педагогического состава. Цель проведения экспериментов – определение облика выпускника – высококвалифицированного специалиста методом проведения анкетирования. Результаты и обсуждение. Полученные статистические данные рассчитывались при помощи специальной компьютерной программы. Проводится анализ профориентационной работы в вузе: ее актуальность, значимость, необходимость для обучающихся. Приводится анализ исследований, проведенный в трех группах (бакалавров, магистров и профессорско-преподавательского состава), по определению облика будущего специалиста. Показывается подход к ее проведению в выпускных классах школ, во время «Дня открытых дверей» в аудиториях, учебном центре. Профориентационная работа позволит привлечь в Санкт-Петербургский университет ГПС МЧС России значительно больше поступающих по специальности «Пожарная безопасность» и направлению подготовки «Техносферная безопасность», тем самым поднять рейтинг вуза, а абитуриентам сделать правильный выбор в определении будущей профессии. Заключение. Профориентация должна явиться одним из основных инструментов, позволяющим абитуриентам понять, осмыслить, оценить свои желания, возможности, сопоставить их с требованиями, предъявляемыми к данной специальности в вузе.

Obesity is a significant contributing factor in the development of various chronic diseases such as cardiovascular disease, hypertension, type 2 diabetes mellitus, stroke, osteoarthritis and certain cancer accounting for 2.8 million worldwide deaths annually. Recent global figures indicate that the prevalence of obesity is not just a problem of the developed countries but is also on the increase in the developing world, with over 115 million people suffering from obesity-related problems (WHO). In Africa, 8% of adults above 20 years are obese and 27% overweight (Steyn & Mchiza, 2014), Lack of empirical data remains an obstacle in monitoring the magnitude of current and future trends of overweight and obesity in sub Saharan Africa including South Sudan. This study investigated the prevalence of obesity and associated risk factors among teaching staff; a case at University of Juba in South Sudan (Rep). A cross-sectional study design was used. A total of 196 study participants drawn from various Colleges and faculties of Juba University using multi-stage systematic random sampling of 1st selecting the College, department and 2nd stage was the selection of participants using the exiting staff list obtained from the University administration. Key variables collected includes weight/kg, height, age, sex, physical activities, feeding habits and income of the study participants, which was used to determine the prevalence of obesity and associated risk factors. STATA version 12 was used to data analyze. Chi-square statistics were used to compare equality of distribution of obesity. Out of the 196 participants, 18.4% were males (160/196) and 81.6% were females (36/196). The mean age of the participant was estimated at 37 ± 8.5 years. Prevalence of Obesity (BMI> or=30) and Overweight (BMI >25 to <=30) among teaching staff was 4.1% and 10.2%, respectively. Of those found overweight/or obese, 20% were females (4/20) and  80% were males (16/20). While the age specific prevalence indicates obesity is highest among 35-44yrs (50%), followed by 45-55 yrs+ (37.5%) and 12.5% among 25-34yrs age groups. Age was found to be associated with obesity (P-value=0.0337, p<0.05)).Meal frequency was noted to be twice a day. Walking is the main physical activities for both males and females (97.5%) and nearly half of the participants (44.9%) had incomes 7500 South Sudan Pounds (SSP) an equivalent of $1000. Income levels was associated with BMI levels (P-value=0.0222; p<0.05). However, low prevalence of obesity among teaching staff at the University of Juba is not yet of an immediate public health concern, however, earlier preventive and control measures is required as most of the staff leads sedentary lifestyle. This study recommends public awareness intervention on dietary intake and physical exercises among others in schools and institutions at all levels to curtail an otherwise gradual rise in obesity and overweight in the near future.
