Summary/Abstract: The development of the information society and the widespread of information technologies open new opportunities for learning and challenge established views and practices about how teaching and learning should be organized and conducted. The article will analyze the outstanding contradictions in the activities of the traditional university system. But after analyzing the totality of the global challenges for a classical university from the modern social realities, the answer to these challenges is the formation of historic "new generation" universities that combine traditional functions with new missions. This paper will try to analyze a series of challenges, such as globalization, the aging society; the increasing competition between higher education institutions, both national and international, and rapid technological development, due to which traditional universities must be transformed to accept new realities. But, in order to achieve this transformation, universities will need to implement strategies and policies that implement flexible academics, innovative pedagogical approaches, new forms of assessment, and institutional collaboration.
