In spite of concern and prognoses that the economic recession and democratic depression will cause sharp decrease of people wishing to study the admission commission of the Faculty of Engineering in the summer of 2009 received a considerable number of applications from entrants for full-time studies. It shows that young people evaluate education as long-term investment for their future. Though, in part-time studies sharp reduction of students can be observed. It indicates that the form of part-time studies at the present economic situation has exhausted its possibilities and the faculty should think about future and offer other forms of organisation of studies. The authors of the article are working with the first year students and through inquiries get an insight in the problems of the procedure of the study process and try to find solutions of them.
