Abstract

Project management has a long-standing reputation as a successful mechanism in production and business that ensures the competitiveness of an organization and its financial success. Properly organized management allows one to competently organize the process of project implementation and achieve its successful introduction. The needs of a modern university as a provider of educational services force the administration of an educational institution to be involved in the processes inherent in commercial organizations: competition in the education market and the struggle for a place in the rankings complicate the tasks of the university. Providing quality education alone turns out to be insufficient. In this regard, it seems promising to use project management mechanisms in the activities of the university. Project activities can be used both as an educational tool to increase the motivation of students, and as educational tasks that are set for the university. The application of projects is impossible without the use of mechanisms for managing the process of their implementation. The achieved result largely depends on successful management, which implies the search for both resources a popular idea for implementation. Forced digitalization, implemented as part of a global experiment related to the need to organize distance learning during the coronavirus pandemic in the spring of 2020, is considered as one of the modern educational projects. To assess the effectiveness of measures taken to introduce distance learning, a survey was conducted among students who studied online during the pandemic.The materials of the article are of practical value for the introduction of digital technologies both at the level of individual educational structures and in the educational sphere as a whole.
