Abstract: 

Introduction. The article examines the problem of improving the quality of Economics and Management education in the Russian Federation and contributes to the ongoing discussions on methodological issues of modern economics. The purpose of the article is to substantiate the impact of educational models on the development of research competence in future government and public administration workers.
Materials and Methods. The study involves theoretical analysis and reviewing scholarly literature on the problems of the methodology of economic research, as well as studying the experience of implementing practice-oriented models of educational design at the Siberian Institute of Management, a branch of Russian Presidential Academy of National Economy and Public Administration, with the focus on 38.03.04 Government and municipal administration undergraduate program.
Results. The authors have substantiated the influence of educational models on the development of research competence of future government and public administration workers. The authors have classified methodological approaches to economic studies and revealed the peculiarities of implementing five types of educational design for teaching economic disciplines. Depending on the conceptual foundations, educational models are distinguished according to: the clarification of educational goals, the level of formalization of learning outcomes, and requirements for assessment tools used.
The use of educational design models contributes to development of research skills in different ways: some of them are aimed at developing the set of research competencies; the others can be used in order to develop only certain types of skills.
Conclusions. The application of educational models involves the integration of scientific achievements into the educational process and contributes to the development of the research competence in future government and public administration workers. Research competence is determined by the maturity of metric, political economy, and narrative economic analysis skills and depends on the educational model employed. The systematization of educational models proposed by the authors makes it possible to identify criteria for choosing an effective model depending on the educational goal.
