The article deals with the question of building hard, soft and self-skills among students – centennials. The article presents the results of four – year (from 2017 to 2021) work with students of the School of computer sciences and robotics as part of educational course “Entrepreneurial behavior”. During this period, more than 400 students of the 2nd year, aged 19–20 years, took part in the study, of which 93 % were men. The geography of respondents is presented from Kaliningrad to Blagoveshchensk, including Tomsk, Novosibirsk, Kemerovo regions, Altai and Krasnoyarsk territories, the Republic of Altai and Buryatia, and foreign students from Kazakhstan, China, and Vietnam took part in this study. The author suggests the models for the building hard, soft and self-skills of students. The author considers the Tshaped model which is aimed at the simultaneous development of hard and soft skills. The Vshaped model offers the building hard skills at the intersection of two new professions from the future. The W model, so named the model of winner, is a model that allows to develop, first of all, self-skills. These model helps to train a creative and proactive specialist who is able not only to use what is available, but also to create something new.
