DEVELOPING GRAMMATICAL COMPETENCE IN STUDENTS OF NON-PHILOLOGICAL DISCIPLINES (ON THE EXAMPLE OF ENGLISH)

Abstract

In the context of globalization and the internationalization of higher education, English has become an essential tool for academic mobility, professional communication, and access to global knowledge. For students of non-philological disciplines, such as engineering, economics, medicine, and information technology, English is not merely a subject of linguistic study but a functional instrument for acquiring subject-specific information and participating in professional discourse. Among the various components of language proficiency, grammatical competence plays a central role in enabling learners to produce accurate, clear, and meaningful communication. However, students in non-philological fields often experience difficulties in mastering English grammar due to limited instructional time, insufficient motivation, and a lack of connection between grammatical structures and their professional needs.
