Abstract

The environmental safety of surface waters is the main condition for preserving biodiversity, the health of the population, and sustainable developed areas. Aquatic biological resources belong to the closed system of the planet’s water space. Therefore, clean water problems and the protection of aquatic ecosystems are becoming more and more acute as civilization develops and the technological impact on the environment intensifies. Effective, rational use and management of water, land, biological resources are impossible without the training of qualified specialized specialists. Today, in modern Russia, the sectoral nature of the management of educational institutions of higher education (universities) is preserved. About a third of students in state universities study at universities of industry departments. The largest number of specialists in demand in agriculture, forestry, and water management, including nature management, technosphere safety, environmental engineering, are trained in agricultural universities. It is the agrarian branch education that effectively builds the implementation of training directions in order to provide professional assistance to business entities specializing in the use of aquatic biological resources, monitoring and environmental protection measures of water bodies, the purity of the water area (water structure, pollution, distribution of aquaculture) in various hydro-climatic conditions. The fundamental factor in the interaction of production, water use, land use, and education is the existence of an established mechanism that supports the functioning of universities as communication platforms for improving socioeconomic relations, including as a “thought factory.” The development of a strategy, forecast, assessments of the development of aquatic biological and other resources in all territories of the country is due to the demand from business entities for the training of personnel of particular professions and qualifications and research and development in the relevant field.
