Abstract

The article is devoted to the topical issue of modeling the mechanisms of introducing digital technologies into the educational process of academic universities, the intensity of which increases in proportion to the challenges and threats of modern society. The authors record the cardinal changes in university education under the influence of digitalization in the forms and methods of teaching, management of the learning process, working conditions of teachers, staff and students, linking the main directions of such a transformation with the use and implementation, to one degree or another, of “digital university” models. The essential characteristics of each model are the automation of administrative processes, the scale and quality of the implementation of e-learning technologies (including synchronous and asynchronous methods of student-teacher-employee interaction), the quantitative increase in IT specialists and the possibility of building up the corresponding digital competencies among graduates of all directions, ensuring the transition to digital models of real and organizational objects and the creation of a digital footprint of the subjects of the educational process. Based on the analysis of the positive experience of implementation and the problems that hinder the active implementation of these models, the general key approaches of the digital agenda and the general strategy of universities are identified, which make it possible to determine the prospects for the competitiveness of universities as providers of services in higher education in the context of the changed demands of modern society.
