Aim. The purpose of the study is to establish theoretical prerequisites, identify, describe and interpret the basic psychological patterns of the dynamics of figurative creativity of future teachers of the humanities both during his/ her training in the educational environment of modern pedagogical universities and at certain stages of the didactic process. Material and methods. As the methods and tools of empirical research, the author uses the procedure of analysis of the degree of statistical validity of the differences of average values of the selected empirical indicators (t-Student's criterion), the test of figurative creativity by E.P. Torrens (modified by O.E.Tunik), a survey method, an interview method, and an expert evaluation method. The respondents were first, third, and fifth-year students specialized in «Ukrainian language and literature», «English (German) language and literature», «Ukrainian country studying» with a total of 156 people aged 18 to 30 years. The empirical basis of the study was the Faculty of Philology of the State Higher Educational Institution «Donbas State Pedagogical University». Results. It is obvious that throughout the process of growing up and gaining experience in educational and professional activities, the main specific characteristics of the creative figurative act for the representatives of the natural profile of professional training are the speed of emergence and development of creative ideas, the degree of deviation from existing prototypes, the desire to avoid a possible return to them or their modification and efforts to complete and properly design their creative product. At the same time, at the background of the previously mentioned characteristics, the dynamics of the indicator of the abstractness of the name of figurative creativity gradually recedes into the background. It means that in the process of micro-age formation of figurative creativity of the humanitarian profile subject of educational and professional activity the subject’s deep essence, not its nominal side, the outer cover, which consists in the peculiarities of verbalization of this creative process, the peculiarities of self-presentation and the presentation of the final creative product are formed. Conclusions. If we summarize the dynamics of figurative creativity of a humanitarian profile student in general, then we can depict: 1) impressive are the positive changes in this area at the end of the study, on the verge of study and professional activity, which in fact can cause such a rapid and bright dynamics; 2) particular interest is in the dynamics of creativity of humanitarian profile students at the level of such nuclear characteristics of figurative creativity as the dynamics of the creative idea, the degree of its difference from stereotypes and resistance to their emergence and motivated ability to finalize the creative product. In the future, we see promising research on the dynamics of figurative creativity of students of natural, cultural, and artistic profile and a comparative study of the dynamics of figurative creativity on the indicator of the profile of professional training in higher pedagogical education.

One of the important branches of the Armed Forces of Ukraine is the engineering troops, the units of which are always present in the organization and conduct of combat operations. The servicemen of these units do a great job of fortifying combat positions, building barriers and obstacles, masking and covering military positions with mine explosive devices, arranging water crossings, helping in organizing shelters for manpower and equipment. The theory and especially the practice of military engineers show the need to improve not only theoretical knowledge, skills and practical skills, but also to have a high level of development of general and special physical qualities. Among the many studies of physical fitness of cadets of different military specialties, there is a lack of studies of engineering cadets. The research carried out earlier concerned mainly the operator specialties of the engineering troops. Military mechanical engineers and command personnel have not been investigated at all. The purpose and objectives of the research are aimed at finding ways to improve the level of physical and psychophysiological readiness of cadets of the Higher Educational Institutions of Higher Education - future specialists of the engineering profile and determining the influence of the author's program of physical training on their professional readiness. The research methods used included theoretical methods (analysis and generalization of literary sources), pedagogical (observation, testing, experiment), methods of mathematical statistics for processing experimental data and assessing reliability. During the academic year, 60 cadets of the National Academy of Ground Forces (mechanical engineers and commander engineers) took part in the study, divided into experimental and control groups by the method of paired comparisons. The experimental group performed a specially developed physical training program with the inclusion of applied exercises. As a result of one-year training following the results of control tests, cadets of the experimental group have significantly better indicators of psychophysiological, physical (especially strength) and professional training than cadets of the control group at the level of p <0.05. Conclusions. It has been determined that for mechanical engineers and commanders for their professional activities, good strength training is important. Sense of temporal, power and spatial parameters in all subjects is approximately at the same level. EG cadets significantly improved the results of physical and psychophysiological fitness. It was found that the existing program of physical training at VVUZ does not sufficiently contribute to the high-quality special training of engineering cadets. The proposed content of exercises and the scheme of distribution of loads for a week and a month can be used to develop programs for special physical training for specific engineering specialties. Key words: military engineers, special physical training, temporary, power, spatial sense.

Interest in the specifics of modern engineering activities, its psychological characteristics is due to the significance of engineering products. Their active introduction into all spheres of society today determines its special status and position among other types of professional activities. This trend is confirmed by the demand of engineering personnel in the labor market, the growing interest of young people in a number of engineering areas (information technology,nanotechnology, biotechnology). It should be noted that traditional types (construction, aviation engineering, transport, etc.) are not neglected. The differences in the existing types of engineering activity, as well as the representation of its complex options, are based on the variety of tasks solved by the engineer. Over the course of historical development, they became complicated under the demands of society, and their successful implementation required the presence of a high level of specialized knowledge (mathematics, physics, geometry, drawing, etc.), the technical orientation of thinking with a creative component. In this situation, the ability to innervate original, unexpected ideas, as well as the possibility of technical implementation of what the engineer conceived at a high-quality and safe level is an important criterion for the reliability of his work. Among the general pattern of professionally significant qualities, engineering thinking has a special position in the process of ensuring the effective performance of functional duties by a technical specialist (engineer), and the study of its leading indicators on the example of this professional community remains one of the priority areas of labor psychology and engineering psychology. The ability to track the general patterns of development of engineering thinking at the stage of professional training will allow us to reflect its peculiarities taking into account the profile (specialization), to improve training programs for future engineers.
