NEXT-GENERATION UNIVERSITIES: DESIGN OF EDUCATIONAL SPACES

Abstract

The articles considers issues in the development of spatial environment in university educational spaces. Global changes in higher education, most vividly manifest in a consistent progression of functional university models (from university 1.0 to university 4.0), are accompanied by no less important changes in educational processes. The trends of massification, digitalization, transdisciplinarity, deformalization, etc. are coming into contradiction with the classical spatial layout of universities. Based on a review of the main transformations in educational processes, the author proposes a design typology of educational spaces in next-generation universities.
