Abstract:

The article presents the possibilities of using game simulator Game Dev Tycoon to develop professional soft competencies for future engineer programmers in higher education. The choice of the term “gaming simulator” is substantiated, a generalization of this concept is given. The definition of such concepts as “game simulation” and “professional soft competencies” are given. Describes how in the process of passing game simulations students develop the professional soft competencies. Professional soft competencies include: the ability to work in a team; ability to cooperate; ability to problem-solving; ability to communicative; ability to decision-making; ability to orientation to the result; ability to support of interpersonal relations; ability to use of rules and procedures; ability to reporting; ability to attention to detail; ability to customer service; ability to sustainability; ability to the manifestation of professional honesty and ethics; ability to planning and prioritization; ability to adaptation; ability to initiative; ability to Innovation; ability to external and organizational awareness.
