Purpose: To acquaint with the methodology of teaching master's students Russian as a foreign language in the fields of business and professional communication; to substantiate the need to implement the "Scientific Speech" section into the course curriculum. Methods: both analytical and explanation methods, making it possible to analyze approaches to the study of the course "Foreign Business Language" by different researchers and methodologists, in order to consider and propose a new approach to teaching the course "Foreign Business Language". Results: The section "Scientific Speech" included into the course curriculum is relevant for foreign master’s students since it promotes development of language competencies (understanding of scientific and technical literature, solving professional problems in a foreign (Russian) language, implementation of written and oral communication for academic and professional interaction). Conclusions: The article notes that the course "Foreign Business Language" should include not only written forms of business communication, but also the scientific style. Professionally oriented texts with pre-text and post-text exercises facilitate the learning of the course curriculum and they are essential components for in-depth comprehension of the scientific style. Training in written forms of business communication is carried out by means of content of formal documents that are relevant in the framework of educational or scientific activities (e.g. order, certificate, memorandum and explanatory note, informational letter, accompanying letter, motivational letter and letter of gratitude).
