For young people especially, physical education and sports play an important role, since society’s demands on a person’s physical fitness are increasing.

It is well known that the young generation’s lifestyle determines the nation’s future. For each human being, health is a priceless blessing, and this is especially important for students. During student life, when the body is still growing and developing, physical education and sports are the best means of preventing many diseases. Health helps students in medical schools to withstand enormous mental stress and guarantees a long and active life. Today, 2nd-year students of the specialty «Technology of pharmaceutical production» attended the championship of the League of Kazakhstan «QYZDAR HOKEI LIGASY». The teams from Almaty, «Aisulu Tandauly» and «Zhuldyz», played. Of course, the students were able to fully experience the power of the game, a healthy spirit, and atmosphere.

Sports, physical culture, and a healthy lifestyle are concepts that are closely interconnected in the modern world. The World Health Organization (WHO) defines health as a state of absolute physical, mental, and social well-being and the exclusive absence of disease and physical defects. This is confirmed by the well-known proverb: “A healthy mind resides in a healthy body!”. The positive influence of sports on a person’s health and character has long been scientifically proven by such authors as Mandrikov V.B., Uryasyev O.M., Guryanov M.S. and many others.

Nowadays, most students lead a sedentary lifestyle. This is due to the computerization of education and spending a significant amount of time on academic studies. First-year students face many adaptation moments, for example, moving to a new city, living on a student campus, and the transition from the school Physical Education program to the university one. Therefore, the faculty of the Department of Chemistry tries to contribute to the education, formation of worldview, and training of our students. Such events help them to unite, feel united, express themselves, and acquire skills and knowledge in the formation of their health and the health of future patients.

There is no doubt that physical education classes and attending sports events have a positive effect on the formation of the physical and mental health of a future specialist. Studying the issue of «the role of physical culture and sports in the system of value orientations of youth», we can conclude that its importance is growing every year, programs are being developed, projects are being implemented, and sports grounds are being built for the development of mass sports. Consequently, physical culture and sports have always been considered and will be considered as the greatest value.
