Experts of Eurydice have pointed out that the development of competence implies the ability of individuals to mobilize, use, and integrate the acquired knowledge in complex, varied and unpredictable in advance situations [3]. The article determines and motivates criteria of competences of descriptive and graphical geometry and their importance in the structure of professional competences of engineering sciences. In the present investigation, criteria of competences are understood as the level of student’s knowledge, skills, attitude, and spatial thinking of graphical competence. To substantiate criteria of competences of graphical and descriptive geometry, the concept of competence, its structure, and content were analysed. The required competences for the descriptive geometry course were determined of which, in its turn, the students’ level of graphical competence is dependent on. Graphical competence is required in professional activities of every engineer.
