Серія 15. Науково- педагогічні проблеми фізичної культури (фізична культура і спорт). - 2025. - Випуск 2 (187). - С. 232-235.https://ela.kpi.ua/handle/123456789/76438We have studied and outlined the features of the formation of health competence of higher education applicants in the process of physical education. We conducted a theoretical analysis of the literary sources of the phenomenon under study and determined that preserving and strengthening the health of students is a necessary task in higher educational institutions. It was revealed that the peculiarities of the living conditions of modern youth, environmental problems, the increase in the volume of harmful information on social networks, the continuous development of technological progress, the abuse of bad habits rather than choosing a healthy lifestyle, limited physical activity and stressful situations, misunderstanding of loved ones, society’s rejection of a personal point vision or views affect the health of modern students. It has been proven that in higher education institutions more attention should be paid to the introduction of innovative content, forms, methods and technologies that are aimed at developing competence to improve the health of students during physical education classes. We came to the conclusion that when developing competence to improve health among students in the process of physical education, teachers should try to solve such problems as: developing an understanding of the importance health competence; assistance in improving the physical and mental levels of higher education applicants preparedness; use of innovative means of training and education; monitoring and assessing the results of students' educational activities by means of physical education; reaching a larger number of students who do not have the opportunity to attend physical education classes; organization of distance learning and training for higher education applicants; popularization and promotion of a healthy lifestyle through the use of modern digital technologies; creating opportunities for students to be involved in physical education and health activities.enhealth professionals of higher educationproblemsmethodssolutionshealth competenciesphysical educationздобувачі вищої освітипроблемиметодирозв'язаннякомпетентності здоров'яфізичне вихованняArticleС. 232-235doi.org/10.31392/UDU-nc.series15.2025.02(187).420000-0001-6630-56570000-0002-0793-2922
