The modernization of higher education requires innovative pedagogical approaches that enhance students’ autonomy, critical thinking, and professional competence. One of the most effective approaches in this context is independent learning, which plays a crucial role in teaching professional subjects. This article examines the theoretical foundations and practical significance of independent learning in professional education. It analyzes its impact on the development of students’ knowledge, practical skills, and professional competencies. The study also highlights methods, forms, and conditions for organizing independent learning effectively in professional disciplines.
