Abstract:
The presented paper raises the question of how the principles of Education 4.0 and the theory of self-organization (synergetics) can help in the reformation of the higher education system, and how interdisciplinary research can be useful for both teachers and students. In this paper, we give a brief review of different studies devoted to Education 4.0 and synergetics concepts. Next, we demonstrate the most important characteristics of complex systems and conceptually simplest methods for complex systems modelling. As part of the complex systems modeling course, which will first be presented to students of physics and mathematics, and then, possibly, to students of other specialties, we present signals of seismic activity, gravitational waves, magnetic activity, and stress-strain signal for a typical metal in the process of destruction. Our study demonstrates that complex systems theory and its toolkit can help to study phenomena of various nature and indentify (forecast) their catast
rophic states. This kind of analysis can serve as a good basis for the formation of professional skills and universal competencies.
