Summary
The process of digitalization of basic processes in universities is becoming one of the priority areas for the development of higher education all over the world. The studies of digitalization processes in leading Russian universities show that the gap between the digital future and the existing digital competencies of the education system is a significant problem [1]. An expert assessment revealed the need of a significant transformation of higher education management [1], [5], “necessary renewal and sufficient improvement to ensure stability” [6]. One of such solutions in many universities is the development of programs for digital transformation of universities. Nowadays the automation of basic processes using end-to-end technologies, the development of online courses, implementation of blended forms of education and individual educational tracks, introduction of databased management practices, and information security are the priority tasks of the North-Eastern Federal University (NEFU)
