Abstract

The education sector is subject to significant changes due to the increasingly active spread of digital technologies. Usually, the trends in the implementation of digital technologies in educational and research activities are set by commercial organizations – private universities, business schools, corporate universities. But public universities and institutions start to think more and more about digital transformation.

By the end of the year, several Russian universities will receive grants for the creation and operation centers of development of digital university models. Anticipating the events, the article considers the model of a digital university, which consists of four blocks – university management information systems, online support for the educational process, key competencies of the digital economy and educational process management based on an individual educational path. The object of the study was the State University of Management and the Financial University under the Government of the Russian Federation. After examination of the current state of university digitalization, we have identified major problems which become an obstacle during digital transformation.
