In modern education, higher education institutions (HEIs) prioritize training specialists capable of integrating into professional environments and adapting to the global labor market’s dynamic demands. Foreign language competence is a critical component of professional training, fostering the ability to address professional challenges. Teaching professionally oriented foreign languages in HEIs aims to enhance students’ cultural development and equip them with essential skills, including mastering professional terminology, preparing documentation, and understanding technical nuances relevant to their fields. The study’s objective was to evaluate the effectiveness of teaching professionally oriented foreign languages in HEIs and assess students’ ability to apply these skills in professional settings. Methods employed included comparative analysis, systematization, generalization, and surveys. Key findings underscore the need for tailored teaching approaches that address the specific needs of students across various disciplines, ensuring better integration into professional environments.
