Abstract. The article examines the attitude of philology students towards
Bulgarian studies in foreign universities. Based on a survey conducted in June 2023,
it summarizes students' expectations regarding the subjects studied and ideas
for future professional realization. The text presents statistics of the answers to several questions - which subjects should be compulsory for people studying Bulgarian studies abroad, what skills should be acquired by foreign Bulgarian
studies students, what practices and internships should be included in the study
of Bulgarian studies abroad and what professions could be pursued by people
graduated in Bulgarian studies abroad. The processed results strongly indicate that
the professional realization of foreign Bulgarian students is expected to be mainly
in the field of education as teachers of Bulgarian language in school or university,
as well as translators. Students consider academic exchanges and work placements
in Bulgaria in institutions and companies to be particularly suitable. Expected skills of Bulgarian graduates are related to mastering both the practical Bulgarian language and its grammatical structure. Knowledge of cultural heritage and national psychology is also perceived to be key to the future professional development of Bulgarian studies students
