Syniov, and the scientific school he founded, to the development of modern penitentiary science and practice. It highlights the pivotal role of his theoretical and methodological approaches in shaping key areas of correctional pedagogy and psychology. The article emphasizes the importance of the concept of pedagogy of cooperation, which has become a cornerstone in the process of resocialization of convicts, promoting humanistic interaction between correctional staff and inmates. Special attention is given to the development of penitentiary defectology and penitentiary psychology as distinct scientific fields, which were actively researched and systematized under the leadership of Academician Syniov. These studies have significantly contributed to understanding the specific psychological and pedagogical needs of persons in places of deprivation of liberty, especially those with developmental disorders. The article also examines the scientist's contribution to the theoretical and practical foundations of the formation of the professional personality of a law enforcement officer, stressing the importance of moral, ethical, and psychological training in ensuring effective performance within the penitentiary system. In addition, the article analyzes the creation and evolution of the psychological service in the penal system, initiated and supported by V.M. Syniov, which has become an integral part of the rehabilitation process and psychological support for both convicts and staff. The legacy of Academician Syniov continues to influence contemporary research and practice in the field, offering valuable tools and insights for further development of penitentiary education and psychological support systems.
