Abstract
As part of the engineering education reform project, the Moscow Aviation Institute is training personnel for the aerospace industry. In particular, the Aerospace Institute is implementing a pilot project to transition to basic higher education. The main objectives of the project are to create a unique profile for a comprehensive engineer and expand their career opportunities within their professional trajectory for working in the rocket and space industry. The article presents the experience of end-to-end project activities at the Moscow Aviation Institute, using a comprehensive project as an example of the final stage of training comprehensive engineers for the rocket and space industry.
