You The article presents an empirical study of the life-purpose orientations of thirdand fourth-year students of various directions of undergraduate training: “Psychology”, “Environmental sciences”, “Economics”, “Law” of the Volga Humanitarian Institute (branch) of Volgograd State University. The study used the Life-Purpose Orientations Test (LPO technique) of D.A. Leontiev as the main technique. The results of respondents in this sample correspond to the average level of indicators on all scales. In addition, students were offered the author’s questionnaire “What is valuable to you?” An analysis of the answers led to the conclusion that spiritual values are a priority for almost all students and “Family” is the most significant value.
