o:1904 Advantages and challenges of dual education in the development of the professional identity of engineers Prednosti i izazovi dualnog obrazovanja u razvoju profesionalnog identiteta inženjera en ABSTRACT: The authors consider the strategic directions of the development of higher education in Republic of Serbia, especially in the light of legislative news regulating dual education at higher education institutions. In this context, they have paid a special attention to the analysis of legal acts and by-laws important for the development of the professional identity of engineers educated under the dual model of education. They have also perceived the number and structure of accredited study programs at higher education institutions in our country, which represent significant indicators of the direction of the development of the domestic economy mapped through the interest of employers for the engineers educated according to the dual model. So, we can conclude that there is an obvious influence of the fourth industrial revolution and the information age on all aspects of the society. Starting from all those changes that are happening and will happen, the Government of Republic of Serbia adopted the Education Strategy for the period from 2021 to 2030, in which there are given the vision, goals, and principles of education in the future. Talking about the dual model of higher education, the most important act is the Law on the Dual Model of Studies in Higher Education being in the focus of the authors in this research. REZIME: Autori razmatraju strateške pravce razvoja visokog obrazovanja u Republici Srbiji posebno u svetlu legislativnih novina, kojima je regulisano dualno obrazovanje na visokoškolskim ustanovama. U tom pravcu posebnu pažnju su posvetili analizi zakonskih i podzakonskih akata značajnih za razvoj profesionalnog identiteta inženjera školovanih po dualnom modelu obrazovanja, te sagledali broj i strukturu akreditovanih studijskih programa na visokoškolskim ustanovama kod nas, koji predstavljaju značajne pokazatelje pravca razvoja domaće ekonomije mapirane kroz interes poslodavaca za inženjerima obrazovanim po dualnom modelu, te je očigledan uticaj četvrte industrijske revolucije i informatičkog doba, na sve aspekte društva. Polazeći od svih tih promena koje se dešavaju i koje će se dešavati Vlada Republike Srbije je usvojila Strategiju obrazovanja 2021-2030. godine, u kojoj su dati vizija, ciljevi i principi obrazovanja u budućnosti, dok je za dualni model visokog obrazovanja najznačajniji akt Zakon o dualnom modelu studija u visokom obrazovanju, koji je u fokusu autora u ovom istraživanju.
