This article outlines an effective methodology for engaging university students in scientific research activities by fostering a sense of patriotism. The study first explains the theoretical foundations of strengthening students’ national pride, civic responsibility, and personal commitment to the fate and development of their homeland. It then analyzes modern interpretations of patriotic education, educational technologies used in the teaching process, and their role in motivating students toward scholarly inquiry. The use of project work integrated into the educational process, practical research assignments, patriotically oriented scientific clubs, “mentor–apprentice” traditions, and innovative methods that reinforce youth’s social engagement play a central role in this methodology.
