The history of the LPPT department begins with the opening of the department of language training for foreigners on September 1, 1975 at the Odesa Institute of National Economy. The development of international relations between OINE and higher education institutions of foreign countries contributed to the increase in the admission of foreign students to OINE and prompted the establishment of the section of teachers of language training (L.M. Lyarova, Z.O. Osypova, D.A. Slobodnichenko, K.P. Dobrovolska and V.I. Mazur), which was designed to provide language training in the preparatory department for foreign students for the countries of Asia, Africa, Latin America and Eastern Europe

Dobrovolska, who leaded it during 1975-2006; from 2006 to 2022 the work of the department was managed by candidate of philological sciences, associate professor S.M. Kirsho; and from August 23, 2022 the department was headed by Doctor of psychological sciences, Academician of National Academy of Sciences of Higher Education of Ukraine Yuliia Asieieva.
Since September 1, 1975 the teaching staff of the department has provided high-quality language training for foreign students and trainees of the Preparatory sub-part. The main weight of the development of working educational programs and plans, the creation of the necessary material and technical base of the department and educational and methodological support for language teaching fell on its first teachers: K.P. Dobrovolska (head of the department), Zh.O. Osypova, L.M. Lyarova, V.I. Mazur, D.A. Slobodnichenko, L.K. Spiridovnova, V.I. Dolynska, R.I. Chudynov and L.O. Sayenko.

Dobrovolska developed the course “Ukrainian as a Foreign Language”, “Ukrainian Studies” (for foreign students).

The entrance test for foreigners is an “Entrance exam for foreigners” – a form of test that involves assessing the knowledge, abilities and skills of the entrant in one or more subjects, academic disciplines or specialties (foreigners and stateless persons who take the entrance exam for foreigners do not pass other entrance tests).
The main competitive advantages that determine the choice of Ukrainian higher education institutions (HEI) for foreign or international students are the ratio of quality / cost of education, as well as the recognition of Ukrainian diplomas abroad.
Odesa National University of Economics (ONEU) is one of the Ukrainian higher education institutions in demand not only by Ukrainian applicants, but also by foreign students of higher education. Every year, the University improves the process of admission for foreign citizens by reducing unnecessary bureaucratic obstacles, ensures greater transparency and promotes the informed choice of foreigners to study in Ukraine.
Odessa National Economic University ensures that the educational process is safe and inclusive, and that the integration of foreign students of higher education is bilateral. Namely, Odessa National Economic University not only creates conditions for the arrival of a greater number of recipients of educational services from abroad, but also works in the direction of adaptation of foreign applicants to the educational process, social and economic life in Odesa, and in Ukraine as a whole. Student activity organizes integration activities: evenings of cultural exchanges, joint activities for Ukrainians and foreigners, intercultural trainings. The issues of integration of foreign students are carefully taken care of by the student self-government of ONEU.
All students from other countries have equal rights and study conditions at our institution. ONEU provides the opportunity to obtain the following levels of higher education: first (bachelor’s), second (master’s), third (postgraduate) with the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the leading field of study, and in some specialties, the degree of Doctor of Economic Sciences.

Correspondence education as well provides the opportunity to receive education in a distance format. All students, upon request, are provided with a dormitory, have access to a sports complex, a library, computer classes, student lounges, etc.
The integration of Ukraine into the International scientific, educational, cultural and informational spaces increased interest in studying the Ukrainian language as a foreign language (ULFL), and the accession of Ukraine to the Bologna process in 2005 provided an opportunity for ONEU to increase the number of exchange programs between Ukrainian and foreign universities, which had a significant impact on number of foreign students who want to learn the Ukrainian language.
Over the last years of the ONEU work, the level of competitiveness of our young specialists has significantly increased not only in the labor market of our country, but also has confirmed its high level of providing professional knowledge in more than 40 specialties in the international arena. Summarizing the privileges of education in our university, it should be noted that we give our foreign students the opportunity not only to learn the Ukrainian language at a high level and adapt to our country, but also to become a highly qualified specialist at moderate costs (taking into account the costs of both training and of residence in our state).
