Students' physical training at higher education institutions

Abstract

Mass health-improving, physical-training and sports events are aimed at broad engagement of students into regular practicing physical exercises and sports, into fixing health and into improving physical and sports readiness of students. They are organized at outclass time, on days off and holidays, in health-improving and sports camps, during study practice and camp meetings, in students’ building units. These events are held by the sports club of the higher education institution including a broad students’ initiative under methodical supervision of the physical-training department and under an active participation of the university trade union [1]. Thus, students’ physical training and study consist of theoretical, practical and test periods that are defined according to the studying concept and methodology used in the given higher-education institution.
