The article presents an overview comparative analysis of the means and approaches to building relationships between the components of educational programs. The study used the methods of system analysis and analytical review, comparative analysis, as well as generalization of the identified limitations. The existing approaches to building relationships between the components of educational programs, such as ontological, graph, semantic, and based on natural language processing methods, are analyzed. Ontological models formalize the structure of an educational program, graph models identify interdisciplinary connections, and semantic and based on natural language processing models allow for the automation of matching student learning outcomes, discipline topics, and educational materials. However, these approaches have several limitations, such as dependence on manual markup, limited consideration of the actual content of discipline curricula, and limited analysis within a single course. The study concludes that a comprehensive approach is necessary and provides a foundation for further research on building relationships between the components of educational programs.
