Abstract. The aim of the research is to reconstruct fragments of the metaphorical worldview of a modern student by examining the features of metaphorisation of the UNIVERSITY, TEACHER and STUDENT concepts in students’ worldview. The scientific novelty of the paper lies in considering metaphor as a means of conceptualising the key features of the postmodern era, such as the uncertain future, the chaotic and unpredictable world, in the metaphorical worldview of a modern Russian student. As a result, the author identifies the universal educational metaphors that help to construct a cross-section of students’ metaphorical worldview, which include metaphors of travel, family, work, zoomorphic metaphors and some others. Based on the analysis of the metaphors, it has been found that the metaphorical worldviews of students in different years of study are not identical – they differ in peripheral features of the concepts under consideration, which makes it possible to distinguish “bright” (positive) images of modern education, characteristic of first-year students, and “gloomy” (negative) images, peculiar to advanced undergraduate students. The predominance of the latter suggests that the feelings of anxiety and uncertainty are the key features of the postmodern era personality.
