The article is devoted to the development, testing, and evaluation of an integrated model for developing environmental competence in students at higher education institutions. The model is based on a comprehensive approach that includes cognitive, axiological, and practical components and combines theoretical, practice-oriented, and reflective blocks. This ensures the holistic formation of environmental knowledge, value orientations, and practical skills necessary for solving sustainable development tasks in students. The model was tested at the Sarsen Amanzholov East Kazakhstan University with the participation of 88 students divided into control and experimental groups. Quantitative and qualitative methods were used to evaluate its effectiveness: testing, questionnaires, observation, and expert assessment. The results showed a significant increase in the level of environmental competence in the experimental group, especially in the axiological and practical components. The developed model has proven its effectiveness and can be implemented in educational programs for training specialists in the fields of ecology, biology, and pedagogy, contributing to the formation of environmentally responsible and professionally competent personnel.
