The participants of the Meeting have discussed a number of issues in teaching of theoretical mechanics. The specialists are particularly concerned about present reduction and in some cases even exclusion of the corresponding courses from the educational programs. The Meeting has emphasized a destructive impact of this trend on training of specialists for innovation and defense industries.
