В статье рассматриваются основные аспекты процесса подготовки специалиста-международника с точки зрения повышения эффективности кадрового состава внешнеполитических ведомств. Предложен новый взгляд на проблему актуализации и совершенствования существующих образовательных программ (прежде всего подготовки магистров) с целью повышения конкурентоспособности отечественного образования на мировом рынке образовательных услуг. Первостепенное значение уделяется не маркетинговой, а качественной, «контентной», составляющей профессиональной подготовки по профилю «международные отношения». Автор статьи использует эмпирический материал, полученный в результате анализа, обработки и обобщения экспертных оценок российских и зарубежных участников международных факультетских и институтских форумов в области международных исследований, прошедших в 2015 году. В результате в статье предложена идеальная, по мнению опрошенных респондентов, модель магистерской программы, разработанная автором исходя из «эталонных» программ по международным отношениям и мировой политике. Рассмотрены наиболее актуальные вопросы, касающиеся формата обучения студентов (в том числе подготовки магистерских диссертаций), дальнейшего трудоустройства выпускников программ и, наконец, развития профессорско-преподавательского состава. В заключение даны рекомендации по возможным направлениям реформирования вузовского образования по профилю «международные отношения». Речь идет о необходимости гармоничной конвергенции лучших качеств отечественной и зарубежной высшей профессиональной подготовки. Статья может представлять интерес для педагогов и методистов работающих в сфере высшего образования, а также для широкого круга читателей, интересующихся вопросами образования и профессиональной подготовки сотрудников внешнеполитических ведомств.

This article examines the main aspects of the IR experts' professional education and training, aimed at improving the efficiency of the foreign office staff. A new approach has been taken to the problem of updating and rationalization of the current academic programs (especially, MA training programs) in order to boost the competitiveness of national educational system at the global education market. The main focus is shifted from marketing to quality and "content" characteristics of the professional training in IR studies' area within the organization of higher education. The author draws on the empirical data, collected by means of analysis, processing and generalization of expert assessments and evaluations of Russian and foreign participants of international faculty and university forums in International Studies in 2015. As a result, the article proposes an ideal model of the master's program, developed by the author, based on "benchmark"International Relations/World Politics programs, which are highly valuated by the respondents. Moreover, it examines the most relevant issues, concerning the framework of students' teaching process (including preparation of master's theses), further employment of graduates and, finally, the development/modernisation of teaching staff. In conclusion, the article highlights recommendations on probable reforms of higher education in IR studies' area. The author does not criticize the national education system destructively. On the contrary, the inevitable question is how to converge the best qualities of domestic and foreign institutions of higher education system in a harmonious way. The article is designed and might be of interest for higher education and training experts, as well as for a wide range of readers interested in the education and training of the foreign office staff.
