The article focuses on the modern computer engineering technology. Identified priorities for educational activities in applying engineering technology training: digital literacy, training of future specialists in advanced computer modeling software packages; decision-intensive tasks for industrial enterprises; computer simulation of processes of manufacturing of heavy machinery. The authors consider the advantages of applying during teaching students of high school as the underlying software products and specialized engineering packages. Specific results of experimental work on the application of software in teaching students of the Technical University are represented in the article. The authors offer examples of professionally oriented tasks for students of different faculties, which is carried out in specialized environments. The authors focus attention on that the use of engineering technology at the stage of studying at the university due to the modern reality. Certain methodical ways of application modern software in teaching are offered.
