The article examines the role of the university electronic information and educational environment in the context of digitalization and lifelong learning. It is emphasized that the ability for self-education and a high level of digital competence are becoming significant characteristics of a modern specialist. The paper notes that the current federal state educational standards require a university to maintain a full-fledged electronic information and educational environment regardless of the actual use of distance learning technologies and e-learning. Such an environment must provide students with individual and unrestricted access to electronic library systems and educational resources from any location with Internet access. The main functions of the electronic information and educational environment are considered, including the use of information technologies at all stages of education, access to curricula and course syllabi, implementation of e-learning, monitoring of academic performance, maintenance of electronic portfolios and electronic grade books, as well as organization of interaction among all participants in the educational process. Using the example of Lobachevsky State University of Nizhny Novgorod, the article presents the structure of the electronic information and educational environment, including the official website, Internet portal, electronic library system, distance learning platform, and university management systems. It is concluded that integration of all participants into a unified information space makes it possible to improve the quality and efficiency of education and to provide modern technological support for the educational process.
