This article describes the goals of the methodological training of future mathematics teachers at a pedagogical university (scientific and methodological knowledge, scientific and methodological and organizational and methodological skills), the structural components of their methodological training (methodological special courses, final qualification and coursework, pedagogical and educational practice). Determination of the essential characteristics of the readiness of mathematics teachers to organize the project activities of students made it possible to outline the ways of developing the necessary professional qualities in order to prepare the future specialist for a rational, creative solution of didactic problems of teaching mathematics using the project method. On the basis of this, in this article, the directions of improving the methodological training of future mathematics teachers for the organization of project activities of students are determined and substantiated.
