  The creation of a school on applied geometry at the National University of Bioresources and Nature Management of Ukraine is associated with the names of the so-called prof. Obukhova Violetta and prof. Rozov Seraphim. Thanks to these outstanding personalities, the Department of Drawing Geometry and Mechanical Engineering of the Ukrainian Agricultural Academy (the old name of the department and university) became widely known in the former Soviet Union. Members of the department annually honor the memory of prof. Obukhova V., hold a scientific and practical conference «Obukhov Readings». Now the conference has acquired international status and is held by order of the rector of the university. The conference is attended by teachers from Kiev universities, from universities in other cities, scientists who had to work with V.S. Obukhova or listen to her lectures, being students, doctoral students, graduate students. The development of the school is evidenced by the fact that over the past 15 years, 15 PhD theses have been defended by former graduate students of the department. Some of them are working on doctoral dissertations. Today, the scientific school was headed by Doctor of Technical Sciences, Professor of Pilipakа Sergey. Under his leadership, 17 master's theses and 3 doctoral dissertations were defended. It should be noted that the range of scientific research of the school representatives is quite wide. Many publications focus on bending surfaces based on the invariability of the expression of a linear surface element. The main area of research is geometric modeling of technical forms and automation of their design. In the field of view of scientists - the design of unfolding surfaces, as a bypass single-parameter set of planes, the location on the surfaces of geodetic lines and their design according to a given curve, which should be a geodetic line for the surface and interpolation of a point series in plane and space.

The main historical periods of the scientific school of applied geometry of the Kiev National University of Construction and Architecture are presented. The main three stages of the formation of the school are considered - from the beginning of the creation of the Department of Descriptive Geometry and Engineering Graphics to the present. Today, the scientific school of applied geometry of the KNUSA has many unresolved tasks and current problems. In recent years, the number of people wishing to defend candidate and doctoral dissertations has decreased significantly. In accordance with this, the work of the department in training young scientists has decreased, the number of graduate students and doctoral students has decreased. In addition, despite the fact that applied geometry is applied science, it is quite difficult today to establish ties with production, to introduce into production the latest results of scientific work of graduate students and applicants. Therefore, the main task of the department today is to preserve the traditions of the scientific school of applied geometry of KNUBA. The further work of the Department of Descriptive Geometry and Engineering Graphics of KNUBA will be aimed at ensuring that the scientific school does not cease to exist, but continues to develop and expand.

The article explores the concepts, features and directions for the development of intellectual property science at the present stage. The basic scientific schools of intellectual property law are analysed, the specifics of their formation and genesis are considered. The article emphasizes that the science of intellectual property law is a system of knowledge and theoretical ideas about the laws of legal regulation of relations in the field of protection of intellectual and creative activities, interpretation of legal norms and the results of analysis and generalization of their application. As intellectual property right, the science of intellectual property law is a relatively young field in the legal system; however, it already has a long history of development, well-known representatives and scientific schools, including those pertaining to Taras Shevchenko National University of Kyiv. The development of intellectual property science in Ukraine is based on several scientific schools in Kyiv, Odessa, Lviv and Kharkiv, which are represented by powerful research centres and educational institutions. The Kyiv School of Intellectual Property is formed by two research centres: the Department of Intellectual Property and Information Law of Taras Shevchenko National University of Kyiv and the Research Institute of Intellectual Property of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine. The origin and development of the science of intellectual property law in Taras Shevchenko National University of Kyiv is associated with the figure of the famous domestic scientist O.A. Hills. Since 2013, the Department of Intellectual Property and Information Law has been operating at the Faculty of Law of Taras Shevchenko National University of Kyiv. At the current stage, the Department of Intellectual Property and Information Law jointly with the Scientific and Educational Centre for Intellectual Property of Taras Shevchenko National University of Kyiv make a powerful centre of the development of intellectual property law science in Ukraine.

Development of the Hydrology in universities of Ukraine is the formation and development of scientific schools, which promote of the better training of professionals. Purpose of the article - to show the history of hydrological science in higher educational institutions of Ukraine, the formation of scientific schools, their achievements and problems, outline prospects for the development of Hydrology in universities . The article presents the history of hydrological science in higher educational institutions of Ukraine since 1922, when E. Oppokov first time in Ukraine established the Department of  Hydrology at the Kiev Polytechnic Institute, that passed difficult path of transformation and now is presented at the National University of Water Management and Nature (Rivne). It was described the development of hydrology at the Odessa State Environmental University (since 1932), Yuriy Fedkovych Chernivtsi National University (since 1946), Taras Shevchenko National University of Kyiv (since 1949), Oles Gonchar Dnipro National University (since 2008). The results of the work of scientists hydrologists at these universities, especially Odessa scientific school of theoretical and applied hydrology and Kiev University scientific school of hydrochemistry and hydroecology was considered. Hydrological Sciences at the Universities of Ukraine have a long tradition that has formed during last century. In general, it is today developing in the mainstream global hydrology. Prospects of Hydrological Sciences is closely linked to prospects of the national economy. Ukrainian hydrologists must work more closely with international institutions on joint research projects. The task of universities is not only intensify research, but also in improving the training of specialists hydrologists from the time when hydrology was included in "Earth Sciences".

The article shows that the period from 1918 to the beginning of the 1930's was characterized by considerable efforts in the cause of the birth and advancement of historical Ukrainian studies at the Katerynoslav University, and later in the Katerynoslav (Dnipropetrovsk) Institute of Public Education (DIPE), as the first institutional forms of the Oles Нonchar Dnipro National University. It was emphasized that the central figure of that period was Academician D. I. Yavornytsky, who laid the foundations for a Ukrainian school of science, and rallied around him a number of professors, like-minded professors, post-graduate students and students. The activity of the People's Academician in the field of historical Ukrainian studies was closely linked with other areas of Ukrainian studies and contributed to the development of Ukrainian historical memory, consciousness and culture. The rise of authoritarianism, and then totalitarianism in the policies of the ruling Soviet-communist regime, led to the curtailment of Ukrainization, the intensification of ideological and political harassment and repressions against a number of professors, young scholars, postgraduates and students. Disclosed as having lost the opportunity to conduct scientific and pedagogical work at the DIPE, D. I. Yavornytsky did not stop creative contacts with staff and graduate students of the institution, using up to the early 1930's various forms of cooperation within the framework of the Dnipropetrovsk Research Department of Ukrainian Studies at the Ukrainian Academy of Sciences (UAS), the Dnipropetrovsk regional historical-archaeological museum, the Dnipropetrovsk Scientific Society under the UAS and the DniproGES archaeological expedition. It was emphasized that after 1933 the further progress of the Dnipropetrovsk scientific school of Ukrainian studies and its important direction - historical Ukrainian studies - was interrupted under the conditions of the Stalinist totalitarian regime.

Background: In this study, we promote a global approach to occupational risk perception in order to improve occupational health and safety training programs. The study investigates the occupational risk perception of operating room healthcare workers using an Analytic Hierarchy Process approach. Methods: A pilot study was carried out through a cross-sectional survey in a university hospital in Southern Italy. An ad hoc questionnaire was administered to enrolled medical post-graduate students working in the operating room. Results: Fifty medical specialists from seven fields (anaesthetists, digestive system surgeons, general surgeons, maxillofacial surgeons, thoracic surgeons, urologists, and gynaecologists) were questioned about perceived occupational risk by themselves. Biological, ionizing radiation, and chemical risks were the most commonly perceived in order of priority (w = 0.300, 0.219, 0.210). Concerning the biological risk, gynaecologists unexpected perceived this risk as less critical (w = 0.2820) than anaesthesiologists (w = 0.3354), which have the lowest perception of the risk of ionizing radiation (w = 0.1657). Conclusions: Prioritization methods could improve risk perception in healthcare settings and help detect training needs and perform sustainable training programs.

Purpose This study aims to explore how graduate students in the social sciences develop reading and note-taking routines. Design/methodology/approach Using a professional socialization framework drawing on grounded theory, this study draws on a snowball sample of 36 graduate students in the social sciences at US universities. Qualitative interviews were conducted to learn about graduate students’ reading and note-taking techniques. Findings This study uncovered how doctoral students experienced the shift from undergraduate to graduate training. Graduate school requires students to adopt new modes of reading and note-taking. However, students lacked explicit mentorship in these skills. Once they realized that the goal was to enter an academic conversation to produce knowledge, they developed new reading and note-taking routines by soliciting and implementing suggestions from advanced doctoral students and faculty mentors. Research limitations/implications The specific requirements of the individual graduate program shape students’ goals for reading and note-taking. Further examination of the relationship between graduate students’ reading and note-taking and institutional requirements is warranted with a larger sample of universities, including non-American institutions. Practical implications Graduate students benefit from explicit mentoring in reading and note-taking skills from doctoral faculty and advanced graduate students. Originality/value This study uncovers the perspectives of graduate students in the social sciences as they transition from undergraduate coursework in a doctoral program of study. This empirical, interview-based research highlights the centrality of reading and note-taking in doctoral studies.

In light of the increasing emphasis on the use of instructional technology in higher education, sociology graduate students need to become conversant with instructional technology and its pedagogical implications. Yet, the literature on graduate instructor training has almost completely neglected this issue. This paper directly addresses this important pedagogical issue. After a discussion of the benefits of instructional technology training, we describe how to integrate training in instructional technology into graduate training programs in sociology. Our discussion offers specific suggestions for incorporating instructional technology training throughout the instructor training process. Our recommendations focus on helping graduate students employ effectively instructional technology and to become conversant with its pedagogical implications.
