Students express satisfaction with the study, work and responsiveness of mentors and teachers, the conditions of study, and responsiveness and the quality of professional services of the faculty. When we talk about the needs of students, we must take into account that there 14 are relatively few students who, according to their previous education, the scientific environment in which they were formed and the national educational context in which they 14 were educated, as well as selected topics of their dissertations, are a heterogeneous group to which the institute adapts as much as possible. The study is highly interdisciplinary, which can lead to a shift of focus from discipline (sociology), so care must be taken not to lose this focus. Changes to the study program are related mainly to the adaptation of the theoretical part of the program.
