| Resumo: | Title screen This paper considers the issues of sociocultural and academic adaptation of international students at Tomsk PolytechnicUniversity (Russia). The experiment lasted in March 2015. A study based on the techniques of K. Rogers, R. Diamond, J.Phinney, D. Katz and K. Braly, has showed that ethnic identity is fully recognized by 31% of students. Chinese students have astrong sense of belonging to their ethnic group, while students from Germany show less ethnic identification. Students fromMongolia show the lowest level of social adaptation. The authors have identified factors influencing adaptation ofinternational students and recommended to train supervisors, who have multicultural competences, develop universityadaptation programs and complexes of educational and methodical support, etc. |
