The article analyzes various interpretations of the concept of a person’s position and subjectness.

The relevance of the research is determined by the society and the state needs to reform the system of training students at pedagogical universities in terms of developing their readiness to implement the interdisciplinary content of general education in their future professional activities. The aim of the article is to substantiate the relevance of interdisciplinary research by students of pedagogical universities as one of the ways to prepare them for the implementation of interdisciplinary content at the level of general education. When writing the article in the theoretical part, an analytical review of the literature was done with the results of research by domestic and foreign scientists on the problem of implementing the content of higher education on an interdisciplinary basis, according to which a theoretical analysis of the concept of "interdisciplinarity" was given and the importance of "horizontal" and "vertical" interdisciplinary integration as complementary ways of organizing interdisciplinary research was determined. In the practical part, a questionnaire method using an electronic data collection form was used to solve the research problem. In the period from September 05 to September 20, 2024, employees of the Perm State Humanitarian Pedagogical University interviewed 126 teachers, 1117 students of pedagogical universities and 636 teachers of other educational organizations. The results of the survey indicate the presence of a number of problems in pedagogical universities, among them: insufficient readiness of teachers and students to implement interdisciplinary research; misunderstanding of the essence of vertical interdisciplinary integration and its importance in the formation of the personality of a future teacher by all groups of respondents and, as a result, underestimation of the expediency of conducting interdisciplinary research in pedagogical universities by students and teachers. The theoretical significance of the study lies in the fact that the authors of the article consider interdisciplinary research as one of the forms of training graduates of pedagogical universities to solve professional problems in future teaching activities. The provisions of the article can be used to substantiate the reform and further design of the system of training students at pedagogical universities in terms of forming their readiness to implement the interdisciplinary content of general education in their future professional activities through participation in interdisciplinary research.
