Legal Literacy of University Students As an Important Component of the Personnel Training System

Abstract

The article is devoted to the analysis of the problem of legal literacy of students based on the results of a sociological survey, in which 102 university students from various fields of study took part. For 97% of respondents, legal literacy in the modern world is very relevant. The work emphasizes the importance of developing legal consciousness among financial university students and offers some recommendations for improving this process. This is due to the fact that legal literacy is an indicator of an individual’s social maturity and readiness to resolve legal issues. Thus, the results of the study allow us to conclude that it is necessary to introduce more classes on legal issues into the system of training highly qualified personnel, which will help students better understand legal instruments and their application in various situations.
