Summary/Abstract: As a result of the rapid technological development and the introduction of digitalization, a radical change occurs in the functioning and operation of the maritime industry. Digitalization places new demands on human resources in the sector. As a result, there is a gap between the demand and the supply of knowledge, skills and opportunities. In this context, this paper aims to justify the new role, tasks and instruments for forming a new educational environment of the maritime education in accordance with the current digitalization of maritime universities. The research proves that digitalization is not only a collection of technological solutions and software products, but also comprises design, management and control of the educational process in an innovation environment with the help of management tools - entrepreneurial hubs, active interactions and talent management of the organization. The research uses the multimethod approach. The systems approach, analysis and synthesis are the main research methods.
