In the present paper we tried to discuss teaching methods and practices for successful preparation of stu- dents for contemporary carriers. The paper discusses teaching methods and practices for successful preparation of students for contemporary carriers. With the fast development of technologies, requirements to workforce are constantly changing. One of the main goals of the university is to equip students with the necessary knowledge and skills for their chosen carrier, therefore it is crucial to de- fine necessary skills, to reveal problems in existing teach- ing methods and structural approaches, and to transform education philosophy of the lecturer accordingly. Paper describes how previous teaching methods were adjusted to new challenges and how the role of the lecturer as a central figure of the auditorium changed towards more managerial-like duties.The paper also considers the well-established experience practices in foreign universities, considering cooperation and internship possibilities, especially in STEM fields. Work environment for sTEM graduates are among the fastest-changings, therefore the university should not only educate students for current job requirements, but also anticipate expected changes and adjust teaching practices accordingly. For this purpose it is necessary that university has constant relation with the possible job market in form co-op and internship. by reviewing various literature in this area and the authors experience, the paper shows the advantages of the students who got real-life practices during their education compared to those who were mostly educated theoretically.
